“Riip Beer Company, emerging in 2014 from Sunset Beach, California, was the vision of two brothers-in-laws with a profound love for craft beer. Their journey began modestly with a 20-gallon home brewing setup but quickly escalated to iconic status within the craft beer realm. Faced with early financial challenges, they ingeniously utilized a 1931 Helms Bakery coach to distribute their unique brews, rapidly building a formidable reputation. Their success was magnified by an array of accolades from the Great American Beer Festival & various other prestigious competitions, catalyzing significant growth and collaborations.”
“Riip is more than just a brand; it encapsulates a lifestyle of excitement and passion, resonating through expressions like “stoke” and “rad.” This ethos, deeply ingrained in every aspect of Riip, from their beers to their community, transcends mere branding, offering an immersive, life-affirming experience.”
“Riip Beer and Pizzeria South HB, known for award-winning beer and quality comfort food, is located on the corner of Magnolia and Garfield in the Home Depot parking lot, occupying the historic site of the iconic Fitzgerald’s Irish Pub, a beloved dive bar that served Huntington Beach for 40 years. This storied venue, with its “if these walls could talk” charm, invites you to step back into the 90s when pizza parlors were the go-to family spot. This family-friendly pizzeria features award-winning handcrafted beers, delicious food, a variety of wines, and a small arcade.”
“The walls, lined with old oak wood, add a touch of nostalgia and a gritty warmth, creating a unique, casual, and relaxed atmosphere. Come experience the cozy, welcoming vibe that makes Riip Beer & Pizzeria South HB the perfect place to unwind and enjoy great food and drinks.”
