Los Angeles hasn’t missed out on the craft beer boom that’s taken much of the US by storm: Golden Road Brewing has proudly flown the city’s flag from its location near Burbank since opening its doors in 2011. Today, the brewery is turning out a solid selection of brews that are fast becoming city denizens’ favourites. Golden Road Hefeweizen, Point the Way IPA, and Get Up Off that Brown are only some of the brewery’s popular styles (it boasts 20 revolving taps at its pub). Brewery visitors can sign up for in-depth tours for some beery discoveries (and samples!), and a menu of bar snacks is fitting for all – this being Los Angeles, there’s a healthy selection of vegan snacks on top of the cast-iron lasagne, arancini, and other hearty fare. Also making Golden Road Brewing’s pub one of the top bars LA has going are its outdoor picnic tables, ideal for lounging in the LA’s endless sun.
