Laughing Monk Brewing Born and raised in California, the spirit of adventure is in our blood. Explore!”. Every adventure needs to start somewhere.

Laughing Monk Brewing is a small batch craft brewery and taproom in San Francisco that blends traditions from California and Belgium with local, seasonal ingredients. Living in a place where you can go from diving on the coast to skiing in the mountains in one day, driving through forest, farms and desert you’d never see anywhere else, California is a place that grabs you by the shoulders, picks y

ou up and shouts “Get out there! That spirit of adventure is part of everything we do – from diving for abalone off the Sonoma coast to planting over a dozen different hops in our backyard in San Francisco to making great beer. We think of our beer as traditionally irreverent, rooted in the idea that exploration and change are the only constants. Ours began as beer fans growing up on the hoppy pales of California, but our curiosity didn’t let us stop there. We kept exploring the vast world of beer and, like many before us, found Belgium. Where California celebrates bright, citrusy, resiny hops, Belgium is all about subtle malt and expressive yeast. We draw from both these heritages to create uniquely delicious new beers. We chose our location here in the Bayview to live with fellow artists, chefs and creators who share our drive to craft, share and explore. Laughing Monk strives to be the hearth of our community here in Bayview, supporting projects from community gardens to public art. We believe that at the center of every community is that glass held high, bringing together locals and travelers alike to share stories and laughter over delicious beer. Raise a glass to the spirit of adventure in us all and Laugh On!

Cooperage and Laughing Monk. The tag team duo you never knew you needed. Hell Yea, Brethren. The West Coast IPA you’ve always wanted.

Azacca and Elani hops punch you right in the mouth with sweet fruit flavors and notes of pine only to come flying off the top rope with a bright, beautiful, bitter finish. You don’t think that sounds good? HELL YEA BRETHREN DOESN’T CARE WHAT YOU THINK.

Happy Pride to all you Saints & Sinners! 🏳️‍🌈 We’ve always kept it a little fruity around the brewery and our celebratory Hazy IPA is no exception to that.

Chappell of Love was gone in a flash last year, so we brought her back for one more round at the Pink Pony Club 🦄 Juicy as hell, pairs perfectly with sunshine in Dolores Park or sweaty spandex in the club. However you celebrate Pride, we’re here to celebrate you!

Drink a beer. Save a salmon. In honor of the Golden State Salmon Association, Brother Sal is back! Brewed with 100% salmon-safe hops and malt ingredients, this delicious West Coast IPA allows you to enjoy a tasty beverage without feeling guilty about destroying our fish friends’ natural habitat. 

According to the National Marine Fisheries Service, 90% of baby salmon don’t make it out of adolescence due to water diversion. 90 percent! That’s a whole lot of fish. Salmon-Safe hops and grains focus on reducing watershed impacts from farming, meaning phasing out harmful pesticides, reducing irrigation water use, enhancing biodiversity and more. Crack a Brother Sal and do something good for the environment. After all, fish are friends.
