WEST HARBOR
Flagship brewery, distillery, restaurant & beer garden
Opening Spring 2026
Mike Hess Brewing at West Harbor is more than a brewery—it’s a 36,000 ft² waterfront destination designed to bring people together over great beer, craft cocktails, and great causes. Anchored by a state-of-the-art brewery and an on-site distillery, this flagship venue pairs fresh, award-winning beer and hand-crafted spirits with a scratch kitchen serving elevated, SoCal-inspired dishes made from organic, regenerative ingredients. The centerpiece is a sprawling 20,000 ft² beer garden, built for live music, epic events, and unforgettable gatherings—all just steps from the West Harbor amphitheater. Family- and dog-friendly, it’s where locals and visitors alike will come to connect, celebrate, and raise a glass to something bigger.
Located at the south end of West Harbor, Mike Hess Brewing sits steps from the 6,200-seat Nederlander Amphitheater and overlooks the vibrant LA waterfront. With stunning views, easy access to the marina, and a front-row seat to West Harbor’s live entertainment and dining scene, it’s the perfect place to gather before or after a show—or make us your destination for the day.
