Trabuco Canyon, California

What If a Brew Could Feel Like Coming Home?

Small-batch ales, lagers, and seasonal pours — crafted right here in the canyon, with patience, tradition, and a little bit of heart.

Born From a Love of the Craft

Scotty Dawg Brewing didn't start in a boardroom. It started at a kitchen table, a handful of recipes, and the stubborn belief that a great beer doesn't need a city address to be world-class.

Nestled in the hills of Trabuco Canyon, we brew in small batches so every pint carries the same care you'd find in a family recipe — nothing rushed, nothing forgotten. Our taps rotate with the seasons, our lagers age until they're ready, and our door is always open to anyone who appreciates a properly poured pint.

This is brewing the way it should be: intentional, local, and unapologetically good.

What's Pouring

Our lineup shifts with the seasons, but these are the pours that define us.

Amber ale in a pint glass Ale

Canyon Amber

A balanced, malt-forward amber with a toasted biscuit finish and a quiet hop character. Our signature pour.

Medium Bodied Session
Golden lager in a glass Lager

Hillside Pilsner

Crisp, clean, and dangerously drinkable. A Czech-inspired pilsner with a floral hop aroma and a dry, refreshing close.

Light Bodied Refreshing
Dark stout in a tulip glass Stout

Twilight Stout

Rich dark chocolate and espresso notes wrapped in a velvety body. Brewed for cool evenings and slow conversations.

Full Bodied Robust
Hazy IPA with citrus notes IPA

Ridge Haze

A West Coast haze that punches above its weight — tropical fruit, citrus peel, and a resinous finish that lingers.

Medium Bodied Hoppy
Wheat beer with a cloudy golden pour Wheat

Dogwood Wheat

Light, bright, and subtly spiced. A German-style wheat with banana and clove notes — perfect for canyon sunsets.

Light Bodied citrus
Seasonal beer with autumn colors Seasonal

Seasonal Rotation

Our rotating tap that changes with the calendar — winter warmers, summer shandies, fall pumpkins, spring sours. Always something new to try.

Varies Limited

Tap selection varies by season. Call ahead to check current pours.
