We’ve been enthusiastically following the El Segundo Brewing Co. in El Segundo since the beginning, and this year they will be celebrating their 8th Anniversary. A wonderful entrepreneurial success story. They were one of the first craft breweries in the South Bay and are particularly known for their award-winning, hop-centric brews. Just opened a short walk from the brewery is the family-friendly, ESBC The Slice and Pint.
ESBC has a Tap Room at The Brewery on Main Street in El Segundo. All available styles can be tasted, and purchased there. The beer doesn’t get any fresher…
Principal Thomas Kelley is a Certified Cicerone. Tom discusses ESPB’s award-winning, Power Plant, their annual release of a Triple IPA (11.1 % ABV.) It was launched last Weekend with great fanfare.
Additionally, Pizza Port will be canning a single IPA version of a collaboration ESBC did with them last year. Their 16 oz. cans will be available in all their markets and is called “Chirpin Bird”. A play off of ESBC’s beer which was a Double IPA called “Surfin Bird”. Artist Steve Nazar of T&C Surf Designs drew both distinctive labels.
“Chirpin’ Bird” releases in late February and ESBC is brewing up a batch of Surfin Bird and will be doing a big launch event at Slice and Pint. Date still TBD but follow ESBC @esbcbrews and @esbcsliceandpint to get more details.
