List of Thousand Oaks/Ventura’s Top Breweries

We’ve told you our favorite hops in Los Angeles– downtown, in South Bay, even on the Westside— but perhaps you’d like to venture a little farther north. Here is a list of the best breweries in the Ventura/Thousand Oaks area, according to Untappd, along with information about hours of operation and food options. This list will be updated frequently, but if you notice anything inaccurate on this list, or if you see that we accidentally left off a brewery that falls within the Untappd score range provided, please kindly let us know and we’ll fix it as soon as we can! We strive to provide the most accurate and up-to-date source of brewery information possible. (For why we chose to sort by Untappd rating, please check out our FAQ.) And, as always, before going to a brewery, check their website or social media to see if they have food trucks on certain days, food delivery options, or irregular hours that day.

Also, be sure to sign up for our newsletter for weekly updates on new brewery hop guides, new research lists for cities across the country, new events on our event calendar, and more! Those in Ventura County should check out our research lists for Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo. And tell your friends! Cheers!
