Boomtown Day – Tacos and $3.00

In the near future or yesterday, if we want news and journalists out there muckraking then we are going to have to pay for it. Except maybe if you check out L.A. Taco and their new perk for monthly members.

They have teamed with Boomtown Brewery for discounts on beers at the DTLA taproom! You can stay current with what in the f-ing heck is going on in L.A. while also getting a beer. That is a good deal.

Boom You’re Nine

Away from the trendy and busy Arts District by a Metro line and a few blocks is Boomtown Brewery. Not a foot traffic spot is what I am saying.

But they have reached the nine year mark and will be celebrating with lots of music, a strength of theirs, and a space that hums with activity.

Add to your February to-do list.

Changing Times

Boomtown Brewery  has “changed” up their latest Artist canned IPA with Changeling.  Here is more info from the DTLA brewery. “Designed by the artist, activist and environmental consultant Lucia Gaia Pohlman , Changeling was born out of the chaos of 2020 and is a call to invite us to examine our place in the world and consciously decide how we step into a new future together with a beer in hand. 

The artist describes the work as, “Not quite humanoid creatures dancing in a new way.” These figures house a wallop of delight in the form of a Hazy DIPA, that clocks in at 8.4% ABV and IBU 35. The beer has a nose of Guava, Orange Creamsicle, Hop Spice with flavors of Pomelo, Lemon Pith and Peach. Made with Galaxy, Mosaic and Cascade hops.”

Stirring the Crazy

Boomtown Brewery is here to help with your staying at home needs with their new hazy, Stir Crazy.

Here are the beer details: “The beer itself is a Hazy IPA brewed with Mosaic, Hull Melon & Chinook Hops with flavors of Ripe Pineapple, Lychee and Bartlett Pear. Stir Crazy has a choice price point of $16 per 4-pack, and is only available in a can.”

“It will be available for contactless pickup on Friday at their brewery, and can be preordered online here.”

Mosey Up to the Bar

Boomtown Brewery is dropping their first Artist Series Double IPA tomorrow and they have tabbed Matt Sharack (also known as Sharackula) to design the can label.  As you can see this is a Western meets Halloween look and inside, the IPA is powered by Amarillo and Cryo Mosaic hops.  Don’t try to get into a shootout afterwords though.  This is an 8.2% DIPA and will make that shot go a little wide.

Urban Elective

Some classes in college would have improved with a beer in hand and some classes, well Physics for Poets tried but I still was not going to understand it all that well.

Now if you are in Los Angeles, you can pick an interesting topic or pick an interesting brewery thanks to Urban Elective. Both Boomtown and Indie Brewing will be hosting a six week course.

You can learn: The Dark History of Los Angeles at Boomtown Brewery from Joan Renner or The Skeptical Cinephile: Investigating Science in Cinema at Indie Brewing Company from Dave Farina.

The Fall Quarter starts on September 9th.
