🚨 NEW RELEASE FRIDAY 6/7! 8 Trilla Gorilla Double IPA

A MONSTER of a collab is being unleashed with the help of our friends in support of . This colossal Double IPA draws inspiration from our OG ape Amarilla Gorilla, the 8 Trilla Gorilla turns everything up to eleven and beyond. A ferocious infusion of Strata, Simcoe, and Citra hops rampage out of your glass with every sip. Strap in and prepare for an onslaught of amazing grapefruit, passionfruit, and fresh resinous pine so fresh you'll swear you're drinking hops straight from the bine.

We couldn't wait to seize the incredible opportunity to work together with our longtime neighbors at Crowns & Hops Brewing Co. Both of our breweries believe that being community leaders means more than just brewing great beer, our collaboration will directly benefit the 8 Trill Initiative's mission in achieving racial equity in the craft beer industry and providing much needed developmental support to black-owned breweries across the country.

Come meet the Crowns & Hops crew on Friday 6/7 at the Smog City Torrance Brewery & Taproom for release day of this MONSTER collab!

We were going to make a pun about apricots, but those jokes are just the pits!

Did you know that we love using real fruit in many of the beers coming from our cellar program? All these apricots aren't gonna wash, pit, and smash themselves so Greg, Jerry, and Porter gloved up for a day full of squeezin' and lovin' up on hundreds of these juicy little gems. It takes a lot to get the full amount of flavor we need, but it's definitely a labor of love, and one you can taste when you try out one of our fruited ales!

Take a guess in the comments what we've got in store for this pile of sweet apricots!

Don't let June Gloom get you down, be like Smog beertender Olivia and gear up for sunny days. Reversible bucket hats, crop tops, tees, retro five panel hats, and more are all in stock to keep your style fresh for summer. Keep your favorite Smog City beers fresh on-the-go too with a collapsible soft-sided insulated cooler tote!

Shop online at smogcitybrewing.com or better yet, come visit us at a taproom near you for a beer and browse the merch in person!

🧪 We're tapping a new small batch beer this Friday! Kick off your holiday weekend with a cool, fruity glass of TranquiliTea Belgian Wit.

This brand new experimental brew is the brainchild of Matt, our lead brewer. At its base, it is a Belgian-style wit beer, light and refreshing with a little bit of spiced yeast character. Adding on to this, Matt threw in a little tangerine peel to get that signature zesty citrus zing that makes a wit so refreshingly tasty, but the special ingredient that really sets this beer apart is the addition of sweet & aromatic peach tea. We dare say that one sip of TranquiliTea will make all your worries go away. Tastes like peaches, drinks like tea, and so good you'll want a glass or three!

Come on down to one of our taprooms and get some peace and TranquiliTea this Friday 5/24!

Returning to the LIMElight just in time for 🇲🇽 Cinco de Mayo 🇲🇽 weekend, Mexican Vacation Lager is squeezing its way back into our taprooms this Friday, May 3.

Sipping on a tall, cold glass of this golden ray of sunshine will instantly transport you to a warm, sandy beach on the Baja coast. No need to wait in lines at the airport or make an hours-long drive to reach your perfect vacay spot. Crisp, bready notes and an easy drinking 4.4% gets a zesty kick from a delicious amount of bright, fresh lime for a perfect day drinker light lager.

New on tap today!

Shadow of the Bo Black Pilsner. If this 4.8% dark lager tastes familiar, it is! Available on draft only for a very limited time, this only version of Little Bo Pils was dyed black with Sinamar, a malt derived coloring agent used to add color to beer without adding any roasted character. Fun fact: since Sinamar is created from malt, using it in a beer satisfies the strict German Beer Purity Law, or "reinheitsbegot", which dictates that beer can only contain 4 ingredients; water, malt, hops, and yeast.

Rogue Wave Hazy IPA, now on tap and in cans to go! Get crazy with this hazy and kick off a great weekend!

Just in time for warmer weather and sunny skies, the even-keeled 6.3% Rogue Wave promises a treasure trove of flavor direct from the depths of the Hazy Hop Sea. A tight one-two punch of lemon-lime zestiness on the nose, think of sipping on a freshly made tropical mojito. A dazzlingly brilliant pile of Idaho Gem hops contribute a sweet note of Juicy Fruit gum and candied tropical citrus. Finishing with a palate refreshing wave of herbal mintiness will have you polishing off a 4-pack and come clamoring for more!

Take a ride on the Rogue Wave Friday 4/26, available on draft and in cans to-go at all Smog City Brewing locations.
