"Santa Monica Brew Works is the only brewery in the neighborhood not located in a mall, so they could probably skate by on mediocrity. But they don’t. Their taproom pours a long list of beers, like tangy witbiers, IPAs, and more experimental brews like a fruity guava-piña sour that tastes like something we’d order at a beach bar. The physical space is pretty standard for a brewery, but what sets it apart is its built-in lunch option: Emmy Squared. The Brooklyn-based pizzeria has QR codes on the table so you can order a sheet pan pizza for the group or their damn good burger. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
