Laughing Monk Brewing

Our Gospel – Every adventure needs to start somewhere. 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 in the Bayview neighborhood of San Francisco 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 , 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!
