Tomorrow’s post over on Food GPS is cut right down the middle. 1/2 about the recently opened Pacific Plate Brewing and the second 1/2 about some of the events on tap for L.A. Beer Week.
This teaser does the same.
First up a review of the tap room at Pacific Plate. As craft beer fans know, breweries tend to be tucked into industrial parks and other odd spots. This locale is not different. At the back of part of a bigger complex off of Myrtle in Monrovia, the space is fairly roomy for a start-up. I have seen and been in smaller. Nice amount of blue barrel tables to stand at and a couple of picnic benches as well. The best seats are the ones at the cut out window that looks at the taps and gives a birds eye view of everyone that comes in. The big thing is that the people at the taps are very welcoming. And the beer is good, but I leave that to tomorrow.
Second, here is an additional event to consider attending. Then check my post tomorrow for others and decide which (or all) that you will not want to miss.
