While the festivities have wound down, the beers are still flowing. So come hang out, grab a pint of Orc Juice, and keep the adventure going.
At 7.9% ABV, this New Zealand Hazy IPA is packed with tropical fruit, ripe papaya, and juicy guava, all wrapped in a remarkably soft, almost creamy body with a gentle hop bitterness.
Brewed with Motueka, Nelson, and Southern Cross hops, Orc Juice is a juicy little journey through the unique flavors of New Zealand hops and one we think is worth indulging in.
Come sip one with us, and if it becomes your favorite, take a 4-pack home while supplies last. 🍻

Come sink your teeth into a fresh pint of Hops IPA. 🦈🌊
Inspired by the crystal-clear waters of Fiji, this 7.5% West Coast IPA is anything but tame. A massive shiver of Rakau, Strata, Simcoe, Huell Melon, Citra, and Nelson hops brings layers of lychee, tropical fruit, and orange rind, followed by a lingering bite of bitterness.
Dry-hopped with The Bruce, Rakau, Nelson, and Idaho 7, Hops finishes with big aromas of dank diesel, hop terpenes, tropical fruit, and a touch of lemon. Bright, juicy, dry, and just sweet enough to keep you coming back for another sip.
Come get your fins wet. Just remember to stay in the shallow end. 🍺🦈

"You know, there’s a certain rebellious spirit in the idea of a 'second breakfast.' It’s about more than just an extra meal; it’s a permission slip to slow down, savor, and perhaps even bend the rules a little, which feels right at home in our Fermentation Wonderland. Here at Long Beach Beer Lab, we’ve always believed that great flavor knows no clock, and some of the most interesting discoveries happen when you step outside the ordinary.
For our upcoming 'Lord of the Rings' event, our incredible Brewing has truly outdone themselves. They been experimenting with a special limited release, 2nd Breakfast Oatmeal Stout with coffee. This isn't just any stout; it's a rich, velvety brew, 7.2% ABV, infused with locally roasted coffee beans from Lamilla Coffee Roasters and a subtle hint of oats. It’s designed to be a comforting yet adventurous pour, perfect for those moments when you want to linger and explore new depths of flavor, whether it’s alongside a stack of pancakes or simply as a morning treat.
So, gather your favorite people, set aside your usual morning routine, and come discover our '2nd Breakfast' this weekend at our Wrigley taproom. It's a chance to share some good company, enjoy a truly unique beer, and experience the Long Beach community spirit. Berenice and Julie have been working hard to make sure it's a memorable occasion you won't want to miss. We can’t wait to share it with you.

Today’s highlight is this amazing German chocolate cake!
Made with rich and moist dark chocolate cake, milk chocolate mousse, German chocolate cake filling, filled to the brim with toasted coconut and pecans. Glazed with a super chocolaty ganache and topped with toasted coconut and cocoa nibs.
This perfect cake is paired with a bourbon barrel aged German chocolate cake stout called the Nihilist. If you are a long time customer you may remember this amazing beer from the beginning of the beer lab. At 14% abv it hits hard but you would never know from the balance flavor. Dangerous!!!!
Come and join us this Thursday the 11th at the Wrigley Beer Lab on Willow or Sunday the 14th at the Zaferia Beer Lab on Anaheim to get a taste of this amazing pairing.
Cheers to beer and pastry!
