USA, CA: Iron Triangle Brewing to launch in Los Angeles later than planned

Craft beer fans in downtown Los Angeles will have to wait a bit longer for the anticipated Iron Triangle Brewing, which is coming to a former warehouse in the Arts District, LA Downtown News Online reported on December 3.

The establishment at 1581 Industrial St. was slated to open late last month, but delays with alcohol permits have pushed the planned soft opening to mid-December, according to Iron Triangle Vice President Kale Bittner.

The tasting bar in the 10,000-square-foot space (the company has plans to more than double its size next year) is finished, and beer is already brewing in fermentation tanks, he added.

Iron Triangle will focus on “session” beers (or those with lower alcohol — closer to 5% than the 7%-10% found in many big craft beers), with six to nine offerings when it formally opens in January, Bittner said.

Iron Triangle is but one of several breweries that are part of a Downtown beer boom. Others include the recently opened Mumford Brewing and the upcoming Boomtown, Arts District Brewing and Denmark-based microbrewery Mikkeller.
