Explore North LA Beer

While the expansive Northern parts of Los Angeles County might be pretty far removed from the city center, they boast their own formidable craft beer scene that is growing and well worth checking out.

As you take the 5 freeway north, you reach Newhall, Santa Clarita, and Valencia, then branching off the 14 freeway you get access to Palmdale and Lancaster, all with their own local craft beer communities.

While no one would call this area an LA beer destination, locals get their pick from some great breweries, beer bars, and bottle shops, and it’s an excellent day trip for anyone looking to explore some new spots.
