The Dudes' Tanks

The Dudes’ open their doors to Business & Beer

The August 14 meeting of Business & Beer was held at The Dudes’ Brewing Company in Torrance, and if you picked this month to miss attending you missed a great networking event.

The Dudes’ tasting room is not yet open to the public, but they were kind enough to open their doors to Business & Beer and we responded by having about 30 people come on out with a great mix of regular attendees and first timers. Head Sales Dude, Scott Shaw kept busy pouring [free] beer, handing out pizza and answering questions about the brewery; Assistant Brewer Rich Madden gave a tour of the facility to those that were interested. If you have even been in their brewery you know that it is significantly bigger and different than the others in the South Bay area.

As an extra treat, as if free beer and pizza was not enough, all attendees were able to take their Dudes’ glassware home and free tickets to the opening night of the upcoming Oktoberfest at Alpine Village were given out. It really was a fun night for everyone that came out and we were glad that so many could make it out.

Business&Beer at Strand Brewing

Ready for Business and Beer

On Thursday, July 10, Business & Beer returned to Torrance’s original production brewery, Strand Brewing Company. Historically we have some of our largest turnouts when we visit Strand Brewing, but July’s meeting fell short of what we have grown accustomed. While the group was significantly smaller than expected, we did have at least one first timer and a couple returnees. When our groups are smaller it does give attendees the ability to learn a little more about each other and what they bring to the table as far as business is concerned. The next time they come to a Business & Beer gathering they will not feel like the ‘new guy’ since they did get an opportunity to meet a few people already.

Our August gathering of Business & Beer will be held at The Dudes’ Brewing Company on August 14 at 6:00 PM. The Dudes’ Brewing Company is located at 1840 W. 208th Street in Torrance. If you have heard that The Dudes’ do not have a tasting room yet, you heard right. The Dudes’ were granted a Conditional Use Permit back in May and are slowly working their way to making their tasting room a reality. I guess one might say that our Business & Beer gathering will be a soft soft-open for them. While I am not entirely sure how many beer options they will have available this should be a fun gathering, especially for those of you that have yet to visit the brewery itself. It is a very impressive setup; I think you will enjoy yourself. Judging by the responses we have received thus far, this should be a very well-attended event. We hope you can join us. Continue reading
