Angel City Brewery Closes After 30 Years

0:00On April 27, Angel City Brewery, that staple in L.A.'s arts district, is shutting down for good on April 30. It's been pouring brews there for 13 years, and overall in the city for about 3 decades at the corner of Alameda and Traction. The parent outfit, Boston Beer's Alchemy and Science, announced they're pulling the plug to zero in on their big national brands. That means Angel City and a nearby spot called Truly L.A. are both on the chopping block, even though the brewery's been holding its own. Founded back in 1997 in Culver City, it got scooped up by Boston Beer in 2012 and turned into a real hotspot for locals. But company brass says, L.A. tap rooms just don't fit their long-term game plan anymore. Fans are pouring out the love on social media, reminiscing about rooftop hangs, free-flowing bives, and crowds from all over L.A. flocking in. One employee is fighting hard to keep it alive, worried it'll get flipped into apartments or parking lot instead of staying a gathering spot for.
