<p>The HOP returns to the West Coast this week, heading to the Los Angeles area for a stop at Smog City Brewery! When Jonathan &amp; Laurie Porter founded Smog City in 2011, they were brewing out of a small brewpub in Torrance, CA. Within 2 years, the company had established a presence on the SoCal beer scene and was able to move into their own production warehouse. Today, Smog City operates 4 taprooms in the Los Angeles area, offering an incredibly varied beer lineup built for drinkers of all shapes and sizes. As Jonathan says, “anyone who says they don&#39;t like beer just hasn&#39;t had the right one yet.” We’ll drink to that!</p>
<p>Featured beers: Twilight Wedge Hazy IPA &amp; 12th Anniversary DIPA. Plus: “Barbenheimer” is finally here, and the HOP boys announce their candidacy for President of the United States!</p>
