Si...t back, relax, and enjoy the ride. Next stop, Pale Chocolate Heaven. Now exclusively available in 16 oz cans. Cheers to more beer!

WOW! Thank you for voting us as Santa Monica’s Most Loved Independent Business. This recognition means so much to us because the support of our friends and neighbors is the heart and soul of our business. To be named the Most Loved Independent Business out of more than 9,000 businesses and 70,000 votes is truly beyond comprehension. We believe the spirit of craft beer is rooted in community. We think of ourselves as more than just a manufacturer we’re part of the fabric of ...our hometown. As Santa Monica’s first and only brewery we embrace our duty as flag bearers for independent craft beer on LA’s Westside. It’s fitting that Independence Day is this weekend because that root word, Independent, is incredibly important to us. We may not be able to compete on the same scale as those international beer conglomerates (aka the big guys) but that’s fine with us, because we’ve got passion and purpose on our side. We promise to continue representing the values of local & independent businesses through creativity, inclusivity, quality, and resolve. Thank you, Santa Monica. We love ya back!

In June of 2014 we opened SMBW based on the belief that our hometown deserved a beer to call its own. Now, THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, we’re celebrating seven amazing years as Santa Monica’s first and only craft brewery. With the world finally opening back up, it feels like the perfect time to unveil our fresh new look. Drawing inspiration from our coastal surroundings this reinvigorated visual identity captures the spirit of both our company and the community itself. Relaxed, yet ...adventurous. Forward thinking, but rich with nostalgia. The essence of independent craft beer is rooted in community. We think of ourselves as more than a beer manufacturer we’re part of the fabric of our neighborhood. That’s why we invite all of you to celebrate our anniversary with us! Starting tonight we introduce our new OPEN SEATING policy. Reservations are no longer available. Don’t worry there’s plenty of room for everyone both inside and outside. For parties of 10 or more, visit our website to make a Group Booking. Stay tuned for more info about this weekend’s festivities. We’ll have new glassware, stickers, and merch (oh my)! On top of all that, we’re tapping fresh beers including our first-ever sour ale! Note: Mask Policy is aligned with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health protocols.
