Eastside Beer: Tapping Into L.A.'s Forgotten Brewing History

Palm trees arc across cans of Golden Road’s Point the Way IPA, and a haloed Los Angeles City Hall peeks through the logo of Angel City Brewery. As craft brewers embrace the city’s unique iconography, transform historic downtown buildings into meeting houses, and find other ways to establish a connection with Los Angeles past and present, it may be only a matter of time until one taps into L.A.’s underappreciated brewing history to revive a long-dormant local brand: Eastside Beer.
