The Dudes’ Brewing opens tasting room in Torrance

Share via

Another craft brewery tasting room opens in Torrance as The Dudes’ Brewing unveils a 13-tap bar with a weekend-long celebration.

The Dudes Brewing opened in 2013 and pint cans of the pungent Double Trunk Imperial IPA and nutty Grandma’s Pecan brown ale rolled off the automated canning line and into major retailers across the Southland. But until now, the brewery’s fans have had no place to belly-up to sample all of The Dudes’ brews in one spot. The self-professed “slackers” are “finally getting their act together” with the grand opening of the on-site tasting room Friday at 3 p.m.

In addition to the widespread canned offerings (Kolschtal Eddy is the third canned beer to be released by the brewery) and the draft-only brews, such as the Juicebox series of seasonal beers and the Southbay Session pale ale, the tasting room will feature one-off and experimental brews made on the brewery’s pilot brewhouse. The grand opening will also serve as the premiere of a new IPA from the brewers known for their flavorful (and often high-test) beers.

The South Bay has grown into a hotbed of craft brewing in Los Angeles, and the opening of The Dude’s tasting room is another stop on an already lengthy South Bay craft brew crawl that includes Smog City Brewery, Monkish Brewing, King Harbor Brewery and nearby Timeless Pints all providing craft ales to thirsty fans across L.A.

The opening weekend celebration runs through 10 p.m. Friday and from noon until 10 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, and the brewery will offer cans and growlers to take home.

1840 W. 208th St., Torrance, (805) 660-5600, www.thedudesbrew.com.
