🚨🚨 Breaking News!🚨🚨
We cannot thank @supjanicehahn enough for the last couple weeks of working with @labrewers on understanding our situation. From the (digital) face-to-face meetings Team Hahn took with over 45 @labrewers members for nearly 2hrs, countless emails & phone conversations, to even an in-person brewery visit from Supervisor Hahn herself to @projectbarleybrewery last week. Paired with a co-authoring from @supervisorkathrynbarger, who has been expressing support for months now. 🙏🙏🙏 We are looking forward to safely reopening soon! THANK YOU to the thousands of supporters who called, emailed, & posted about us these last few weeks and to our amazing coalition of chambers, cities, and legislators who echoed our cause. Stay tuned for more, but for now, please stay safe, keep those masks on, and take care!

⚠️ @LABrewers are still hoping for the opportu

⚠️ @LABrewers are still hoping for the opportunity to work with the L.A. County Board of Supervisors and the Dept. of Public Health on the best ways for us to be able to reopen our tasting rooms and work with third-party food vendors to provide safe, dine-in meal service. Our Guild breweries are struggling to survive and we know that we have local food partners who are also in dire need of business. Help us create a plan and get back to work. We continue to plead with @supervisorkathrynbarger @hildasolis @mridleythomas @sheilakeuhl @supjanicehahn to advocate for our small businesses. As we have mentioned before, our industry will do what it takes to mitigate the virus, serve guests responsibly, and protect our communities. We hope that @drbarbraferrer and @lapublichealth can help us find a way to do this properly. L.A. remains the only county left in the entire state that prohibits breweries to work with food vendors in order to reopen. Please help #SaveLABrewers! Special thanks to @annarzielinski and @sgpenberthy for donating their time and talent to creating this video for us. #labeer #craftbeer #independentbeer #smallbiz #lacounty

Heading to an @labrewers brewery for to-go beers this weekend? Help us curb the spread of the virus and PLEASE abide by these simple community rules: Wear a MASK for the safety of yourselves and others, wait 6ft away from other people, and wash or sanitize those hands often! Our staff are trained to clean and sanitize frequently and we provide folks with PPE to make sure we are protecting them AND our guests. Please help us out and be KIND. We are still trying to reopen our tasting rooms and we need everyone all-in on safety! Thank you, stay safe, and we miss you! 🍻 #SaveLABrewers #wearwaitwash #lacounty #wearingiscaring

🚨🚨 From @howiescellar Who is ready for something epic? We have been working on pulling this promotion together for a few weeks now and are super excited to finally announce it. Our family at @howiesmarket @howiescellar and @alexandersprimemeats love our beer. When we heard about the challenges our local brewing industry was having, through a campaign that the @labrewers had been running, we wanted to do something. Introducing Save The Beer where you get to create your own 6-pack from all of the local brewers products that we have in our coolers. We have been working to stock as much variety as possible so that you can taste your new favorites! A portion of the sale from each 6 pack goes back to the Los Angeles Brewers Guild to help them help the local breweries. With over 90 breweries in L.A. County, they have their work cut out for them and we want to support. So, pop in and start creating your own mix of flavors to try!! *Please note we will have new selections coming in every week as we work with the breweries to stock their product so please check back often for new options #labeer #savelabeer #localbeer #brewery #losangeles #shopsmall #supportlocal #howiesmarket #alexandersprimemeats #howiescellar #sangabriel #sangabrielvalley

Hope you all had a fun and safe Labor Day weekend!

Hope you all had a fun and safe Labor Day weekend! It was very difficult for us to know we couldn't serve you all on person during this last 3-day weekend. As we enter the 3rd week since we started #SaveLABrewers, it's important to keep up the support! We still have not gotten any collaboration or consideration from the county on how to keep our businesses afloat! We hear whispers of support from some but not from the majority of supervisors. We hear random dates from random county staffers on a hypothetical time when this can be discussed. We need help! @hildasolis @mridleythomas @sheilakuehl @supjanicehahn @supervisorkathrynbarger...will you come to bay for our small businesses? Will you allow us to use food vendors so we can safely operate outside? A growing number of our businesses are thinking they will NOT make it through the end of the year of there is no relief!

It's been a week since we started our #SaveLABrewe

It's been a week since we started our #SaveLABrewers campaign and while we are still hoping that the LA County Board of Supervisors will hear our pleas for them to allow us food vendors, we need to keep on keeping on. That said, help us continue to being a safe shopping experience to our communities. If you're stopping by to grab some To-Go brews, please remember to WEAR a mask, WAIT 6ft away from others, and for your sake and for the safety of others, WASH or sanitize those hands often! All of our staff are committed to doing the same for you safety as well. Hoping our industry can see some relief at the County level soon, but we can't drop this diligence if we are to convince them to let us reopen tasting rooms for outdoor dining. Take care, everyone! Thank you for doing your part! #labeer #craftbeer #independentbeer #lacounty

From @alostabrewingco: Hi! @hildasolis @mridleytho

From @alostabrewingco: Hi! @hildasolis @mridleythomas @sheilakuehl @supjanicehahn @supervisorkathrynbarger My name is Chewie and I am a (almost) 2 year old golden retriever. Alosta Brewery has been my second home ever since I was a pup. In fact, it was the first place my mom took me to after I had all my vaccines and the vet said I was safe to go out and about. Everyone at Alosta has become my family through my weekly Thursday night visits :)
. They have watched me grow up from a hyper young puppy to a slightly less hyper dog! Mom says that coming to Alosta on a weekly basis really helped me learn to settle down, especially in busy places. She just doesn’t understand i want to be friends with everyone! Since my parents have been home more often I’ve enjoyed seeing them, but I really miss seeing my Alosta family members!
. Plus Mom keeps taking about how much she appreciates having a safe, dog friendly place to work on my socialization. Right now, some doggies don’t have that! How will they become good boys and girls? I promise that I will be a good boy and keep practicing my social distancing skills to do my part, I’ve gotten better at that pesky “stay” command! Both my mom and I beg and hope the LA BOS reconsiders their position. #SaveLABrewers ❤️All the doggie kisses, Chewie❤️
. PS: I know how much everyone at Alosta cares about making a safe environment for people to come enjoy some food and a beer so they can continue to keep their doors open! They’ve been training staff, re-did their outdoor patio space, and working with their regular food vendors so they can maintain a safe environment and follow all the necessary guidelines.

Still crossing our 🤞 that our Board of Supervisors see us. @supervisorkathrynbarger, we know that LA County is in the Governor's purple tier, but all we need is for you and your colleagues at county Health to allow us to use food vendors. That's it! Allowing food vendors as outlined in the new state tier system would allow us to abide by restaurant guidelines of outdoor service! As we see our neighbors in other counties move into the red tier with limited indoor service...we're still hear begging to be able to serve meals OUTSIDE. Please reconsider. Look at this showcase of cleaning products and PPE from our very own @mtlowebrewing! Help #SaveLABrewers. #labeer #craftbeer #independentbeer

Woof 🐶 I'm one of the dogs that guard the hop bines over at @sowaheart farm. We grow a bunch of neat things and this season is wet hop season! We love supplying @thekindsage with hops to make delicious vegan beers. We also love sharing our harvest with our @labrewers friends! We've been hearing that many of them may not be able to survive for much longer if L.A. County doesn't help them operate safely outside with food vendors. Sage is fortunate to have a restaurant, but so many of our small business friends do not. Can anyone help? @hildasolis @mridleythomas @sheilakuehl @supjanicehahn @supervisorkathrynbarger perhaps? #SaveLABrewers

From @smogcitybeer: Hi @hildasolis @mridleythomas

From @smogcitybeer: Hi @hildasolis @mridleythomas @supjanicehahn @supervisorkathrynbarger @sheilakuehl. My name is Gracie (or Grayson depending on how I am feeling that day) and I live at Smog City Brewing Co. Hopefully you’ve seen #SaveLABrewers posts this week the decent humans that work at our 93 breweries in the county asking for your help. If not, check ‘em out. They explain pretty puuuurfectly the predicament we’re in right now.
.
You see, all the really cool cats that used to come enjoy beers at Smog City Brewing Co. are no longer allowed to do that. My life has turned into a hollow shell of what it once was because my humans, who work super hard by the way (too hard if you ask me!), aren’t allowed to let their catstomers (see what I did there!) drink their delicious brews here anymore alongside a meal. Our big, purrrfect outdoor patio and parking lot space are sitting empty. There are no litters of lovely people to fawn over me and tell me how great I am. Where did they all go?!?!?! Also, as much as I hate to admit it, I also miss the canines that used to come hang out too. Rolly and Rosebud used to be regulars here and have vanished. It’s purrty sad.
.
But, apparently there is a purrty simple solution to the sadness! I was rudely woken from a nap the other day by my humans talking about how every other county in the great state of CA is allowing craft breweries just like ours to be open and use 3rd party food vendors to meet meal requirements. So, if every other county can do it, why can’t we? I may be super lazy, but the rest of the crew at Smog City is totally ready to meet any and all requirements needed to open the doors safely again. Please help us out! I need praise from more people than just my staff! HELP!
.
Supervisors, throw this cat a sack of catnip and have the @lapublichealth Health Order that prohibits dine-in with a 3rd party food vendor changed. I’ll be lying here on the empty, unused patio until then, dreaming of better days. XOXO Gracie/Grayson.

🚨From @wolfcreekbrewery: Hefe says: "Please open the brewery so that I can continue ignoring everybody -- except for the very special select few." Dear District 5 Supervisor @supervisorkathrynbarger ,
While we have appreciated all of the things you and your colleagues have done for the sake of Los Angeles County residents during this pandemic, we want to reach out to you for help. Our small and independently-owned businesses are on the verge of closures due to the change in the June county health order which explicitly prohibited us from the ability to partner with third-party food vendors in order to provide meals for outdoor dining at our brewery tap rooms. Some of our peers who are brewpubs with full kitchens and outdoor space have had the privilege of being classified in the same way as other restaurants, but two-thirds of the Los Angeles County Brewers Guild are unfortunately not as lucky. We are begging for the Board of Supervisors to reconsider a reclassification of our businesses to at the very least, align with the State of California’s health order. Los Angeles is the ONLY county in the entire state not allowing us to partner with food trucks and catering vendors. Our food partners are also suffering during this time as large summer events they rely on are also off the calendar. Furthermore, not allowing the approximately 70 brewery tap rooms to operate in this way is not deterring patrons from participating in this behavior. Many are merely driving to breweries in neighboring counties to get a small dose of craft beer community. All of our businesses have followed the guidelines set forth by the county, state, and CDC, and we are absolutely willing to adhere to additional requirements if that means we can collaborate with the county on best practices to mitigate the virus. The state ABC has even allowed us to file for extensions to our licensed premises to expand our outdoor social distancing, yet we are sitting on our hands unable to utilize the lifelines that the CDPH and ABC have given to businesses in other counties outside of L.A. We implore you to please reconsider. Respectfully, Wolf Creek Brewery.

🚨Los Angeles County is the ONLY county where brewery tap rooms are not allowed to partner with third-party food vendors to provide meals for outdoor on-site dining. Our local businesses are bleeding more and more every day without relief through on-site dining, and we need our Board of Supervisors to make the change and help our struggling industry. More than two-thirds of @labrewers membership are hanging on by a thread and we risk seeing dozens of local breweries closing should we not get this small life-preserver to temporarily keep us going. Help us spread the word & consider contacting or tagging your local L.A. County Board of Supervisor and tell them that you want them to #SaveLABrewers! We have a link in our bio to a blog post with one-click emails for your convenience. Thank you for your support this week! °

From @brouwerijwest: Howdy, fam. We hope y’all are hanging in there and staying safe and healthy, physically and mentally. For those with kids going back to school and trying to make it work, we feel you and send you positive vibes. And for our neighbors up north dealing with wildfires, those in the Gulf Coast facing hurricanes, and all of us fighting for racial and social justice throughout the world, we stand with you.

We know there is a lot going on in the world right now, but we are asking for a few minutes of your help today.

This week is the @labrewers Action Week, where we are collectively mobilizing to ask the County to modify the County Department of Health's Order to allow breweries to partner with food trucks to open for on-site service. While we are thankful we’ve been able to offer pickup, delivery, and shipping options (and are thankful to all of you who have continued to support us in that way), it is not close to the same. The whole LA craft brewing industry’s survival is in jeopardy if something doesn’t change soon.

Our ask is for you to reach out to our County Supervisor, Janice Hahn, to advocate on our behalf. First, let us make clear that we take COVID very seriously and fully understand the difficult decisions that must be made in deciding what to open. We are not asking for any "special" treatment, simply for fair and equitable treatment. LA is the only county in California not allowing breweries without kitchens to partner with food trucks to open. We are confident that anyone who visited us during the three weekends we were open in June would agree that we took this seriously – we created a whole new service model and proved we can operate just as safely as restaurants, if not more so given our large 10k+ sq. ft. outdoor courtyard..

So, please send a message to @supjanicehahn if you want to help us out. Check out our IG stories for even more info. Thank you again for your support. We literally couldn't do it without you

From @tenmilebrewing: Hey Everyone - It’s your T

From @tenmilebrewing: Hey Everyone - It’s your Ten Mile family here… As you may have seen from other local LA breweries, LA County is the ONLY county in California that is not allowing breweries, without a built-in kitchen, to be open. We opened briefly in June and operated under the same guidelines and restrictions that every other business is required to adhere to, but that was short-lived. Soon LA County decided they would not allow our customers to dine outside in our own private parking lot, or enjoy food from our awesome food truck partners. We are not asking for special treatment, and we never have. We are asking to be treated fairly and given a chance to see our business through these devastating times. Please join us in asking our LA county supervisor, @supjanicehahn to give our business and countless other’s a chance. So tell us @countyofla , why can we enjoy a beer on the streets of LA if it’s from a big chain restaurant, but not in our parking lot? We hope you have taken note of your local economy fleeing to @ocgov which is only a five minute drive from our business…because we sure have. @labrewers

From @commonspacela: Dear Sheila Kuehl, We want to thank you @sheilakuehl for you and your colleagues service to the good people of Los Angeles County. We empathize with how difficult the Covid situation must be on our Government Officials and we could not imagine creating policies during this pandemic. We appreciate the amount of pressure you are under with so much at stake. Recently, Common Space Brewery has joined our fellow LA County Breweries in asking your Commision to follow the California State Guidelines allowing Brewery Taprooms to operate under the same guidelines as restaurants. Without the revenue from our taprooms, LA Breweries simply cannot survive. Further, our independently owned, Family operated Food Vendors have $0 income with our taprooms shuttered. We are not asking for any special treatment and we certainly understand that we are not the only industry affected by Covid. But the State was clear on what is safe and sustainable and we ask that this hold true in Los Angeles County as well. We are ready, willing and equipped to create a safe working environment for our team and a responsible service to our customers. Please allow us to operate under the current State Guidelines. We appreciate your consideration and hope to see you on our patio for a beer and meal soon. With Gratitude,
Common Space Brewery •••
