I live in Phoenix, Arizona! To this day, I have never found a place like Last Name brewery! People are fantastic and Pomona Queen will always be the best beer I've ever tasted. I fly down every couple of weeks to get my fill! And when it comes to bartenders Drew is the best ever. Great service, great stories, great all around! Drew you rock! I will come back again and again! read more

Fun place! Friendly service and a great selection of beer. So nice to see several varieties (not IPA heavy) - oktoberfiesta, mudders milk, gettin witty wit it, cali black beer... excellent choices! Love the selection of games and the nice patio atmosphere too read more

Great beer and holy moly if you like grapefruit... which I do... try the grapefruit IPA, it's breakfast in a glass! All the beers are very good and represent the styles they label. I don't think I've ever been to a craft Brew place that I liked all the beers or thought they were good... this is a first. But seriously... best grapefruit IPA ever. read more

Our first time I last name was pretty fun. They have the awesome Grilled Cheese Truck is the only reason why Brian wanted to go. We had a flight and it was just the amount of beer that we needed to start our Friday night. Everybody was super nice customer service was excellent and we will definitely be back read more

Great tasting beer and friendly service. Before we sat they cleaned our table and ask us if we needed anything else. They have different food trucks each day and there pretty good. read more

Great place and atmosphere. Highly recommended. Excellent Beer and ambiance. The Pomona Lager is great.

Great beer and great vibes! Love that they have continued to let their patrons imbibe in the parking lot...hoping that continues even post covid. Love that they have live entertainment and yummy food available. My husband and I enjoy coming here whether by ourselves or, even better, with good friends. read more

This place is super fun and super good beers! Came here on cinco De mayo. Had a blast! read more

I tried about 3 beers and a flight of 4 beers. The beers were okay just not great for a craft. The beers tasted watery with whatever their flavor consisted of. The server was friendly and very nice. The beer was not as cold as it should have been or maybe glasses should be Chilled. However, the food truck was fantastic. The food was a 10. I went to the Claremont Craft Ale and their beer was colder and better tasting. read more

If you have a girl named Sheila serving you, ask for a different person! She doesn't know what she's talking about when it comes to beer and she's extremely rude! She over heard our table talking about politics and took it upon herself to chime in and bash half our group for being Trump supporters. Get better employees that have more control of themselves. read more

Enjoyed this brewery. My favorite beer was the session IPA but I can't remember the name. They are most known for the Pomona Queen I believe it was called. The best way to describe that was a lighter red, my boyfriend enjoyed that beer as well. Definitely a kid friendly place if you're into bringing your children to breweries, they were running all over the place. All in all, good beer and we'll be back. read more

The best beer, Mcoven, and the pilsner! I miss the Amelia Bearheart! I am always so comfortable inside or out , and as a woman being here by myself is so easy. I have never had a problem and I see other women by them selves or with their female friends. And the food trucks are great.​ read more

Formally known as Dale Brothers. I have been here a few time and if you are from the area you have probably seen one of their beers on tap somewhere (probably Pomona Queen). I like this spot they have good beers and a nice atmosphere. Sometimes they have food trucks and other things going on. All in all a good is place to stop for a brew with your buddies or on a date night. Side note I'm not a big fan of lagers but they do it right. In case you were wondering all their beers are lagers, no ales here. read more

Loved this place! Good beer and Big Easy food truck was amazing!! Good vibes, friendly employees, had lots of fun and can't forget about that amazing beer! read more

After so long of always drinking their beer when I'm out in Claremont or with my friend Allison, I finally made it to the tasting room! It happened to be Happy Hour and that meant my Pomona Queen was $4 instead of $5. YEA!!! The staff was friendly and welcoming and they had such a great selection on draft. Just wish they didn't allow children in the place! (Ugh!) Oh yeah, and Matt ROCKS! Give that man a raise! read more

Came here last Wednesday and the beer was delicious, I'm more of a stouts kinda girl so i had their two most popular stouts and wasn't disappointed. Went with my boyfriend and took our own Jenga game to play. It also turned out to be trivia night! It was a lot of fun. The staff is great and friendly. Definitely plan on coming back. Also they had a food truck in the front and they had delicious vegan tacos! Wasn't disappointed at all. Great place to go with a group of friends for a good time! read more

Last Name Brewing - A nice cold stout and some vegan tacos delicious! - Breweries Near Me - Upland, California

Its cute, quaint, and perfect to linger and have a beer. The James Blond was sooo good, just the right amount in a small glass. There's board games & a food truck that parks outside. Can't wait to come back read more

I love Last Name Brewing! I've been here twice now and am definitely a fan. They have seating inside and outside with heat lamps available. The two times I've been here happen to be on a rainy day and it's pretty relaxing. They have many beer choices with always something new. I tried their flight the first time and last time I tried one of their newer drinks. I also got to "steal the glass" When they let you take the glass home. There's plenty of seating inside and out and they always have a different food truck and vending machine inside for chips and other sodas and drinks. I love that they have an assortment of different playing cards and board games you can play. I always see people come here for drinks and just chilling doing homework/work or studying with friends. It's a chill environment and the staff is very friendly. I also used my Yelp check-in for $1off a beer. I told them I tried using the check in the last time I was there for a free sticker and they were out. The server ended up having some more stickers this time and gave me one! I thought that was very sweet. Can't wait to be back!! read more

Went to Last Name last night with a friend. Fun place, nice atmosphere but the big DOWNSIDE is the beer is NOT very cold...it's a reason to not go back. read more

The beer is amazing.love the vibe also. Highly recommend to anyone .bands on Saturday night s read more

We came here on a Saturday at 9 pm right after visiting ROK Brewery. My first impression was it brought back memories from 2003 where I would hang out at rock clubs in Orange County. There was a psychedelic band playing and the place was packed like sardines. There were little toddlers and 3rd graders hanging out with their parents or sleeping on the benches. The environment was so much better then at the "I have to prove something" at the bars. read more

Beer was great and so was The Big Easy burger. Wish the tables and the games were cleaner. We probably would have stayed longer and spent more. Atmosphere was nice and again really liked the sour cran cherry!! read more

Sat down at the bar top for 20 minutes with no service or even a look by two different people behind the bar. I guess only the regulars are allowed service while at the bar because they got an order no problem. I can't rate the beer because I never got one. Definitely will be spending my money at better serviced breweries. read more

Just hosted a private party for my dads retirement at Last Nam (12-29-19), we had about 60 people. Everything was so easy working with last name staff. I reached out via website and Spencer got back in touch with me right away, he helped coordinate day of details, and on the day of the event Becky and Drew were working and they were so helpful. This spot is perfect, they have a "semi private" back area that they blocked off for our party. We asked for a hosted bar for a certain dollar amount and Drew did a great job communicating where we were throughout the night to make sure we didn't go over. He was personable and friendly with our guests. I would highly recommend working with last name for any of your events. read more

This is a great spot for a cold one. Many lighter offerings of beer, not just heavy IPAs and stouts. A variety of wheat beers and lagers were present, and very tasty - they have just what you need at any time you come through here. I found this place as I was headed home from our Inland Empire office. I decided to randomly stop in, and was not disappointed. The brewery is in an industrial park right outside the Cable airport, a local General Aviation airport in Upland. The industrial park has several businesses on site, and thus, plenty of parking, even if you have to park a little ways away. I haven't ever had an issue finding a spot to park. There is an outside patio at the brewery where you can sit and sip, as well as small tables inside near the counter, and the larger bench seating inside. The ceiling and ducts are all exposed, and it's got a nice industrial feel, yet the wood balances it out. They have a variety of rotating brews. I've come here 2-3 times, and I always end up at least 2 flights of beer in, due to the large variety. Prices are good. They do offer growler fills, as most breweries do. The staff was very nice, accommodating, and helpful in explaining some of the offerings I was curious about. I'm a decent beer connoisseur, so I don't ask a lot of questions. That said, the questions I had were answered with a smile and with knowledge of the product they are brewing. They do have a food truck (maybe more than one?) come in, but I did not try the food. It smelled amazing, so I'll definitely try it the next time I'm out that way. They seemed quite friendly also. I haven't been out to the office in a while, and when I have, I haven't had my growler. The last beer I brought home (Passion Fruit Wit) was a hit at home, and I recommend you try that one if it's around! read more

Julie is my girl! She totally remembered me a whole year and some later! I came to this brewery when they were at their first location and now they are at an awesome, bigger, more hospitable location with benches, tables and food trucks! I love all the Facebook publicity too because that's how I know what's brewing AND what's cooking! Let me start with my personal favorite...Pomona Queen! Not only did Julie remember me, she started to pour my Pomona Queen for me before I even ordered! Amazing! Okay check it! What? You can blend beers? I'm quite the beer connoisseur so why have I not seen this in my life? There's a beer called the Queen Latifah (Yup...UNITYYYY) and they mix the Pomona Queen and the California Black Beer. IT'S SO DELICIOUS! Dale Bros knows how to bring it! AND the bartenders/brew masters are super friendly. ...and this is a total side note, but there was one bartender that I had a minor crush on. But I was all dressed up in SUPER 80s gear and I felt I didn't have my A-game with my side ponytail, blue eye shadow, and beads. I still have yet to go on one of their brewery tours! Maybe then I can sneak in a wink! It's a great place to chill and watch some good baseball too. But there was a minor disagreement as to whether to play the Dodger game or the Angels game. Lastly, you can fill up growlers of beer...just make sure you drink it fast! I have yet to fill up my Pomona Queen growler! PS...there were a lot of kids there...is that a new trend? This is the second time I've been to a brewery and I've had that Sweet Home Alabama moment where you have a baby...at a bar.... ...at least I have options for when I start cranking out the kiddos... read more

Loved the intimacy and secrecy of the old 9th street locality, but this new locality is sprawling with varieties of sitting arrangements. Parking is plentiful and the locality is a little off of Central and Foothill. For the good, the beer selection is small, but what a selection! Well crafted regulars and seasonal brews offer something along much of the beer spectrum. Their recent Oktoberfest style of beer was dark and hearty, but with the lightest finish of any dark beer I've tasted. I found the IPA choice not strangled in hops, but well balanced. The Pomona Queen and the Black Bear were my first samples around 7 years ago at the L.A. Fair. The Pomona Queen has remained a consistent favorite. I miss the seasonal Dude of York; it has a light and refreshing taste. The entire staff, including the owners, are the nicest people around. They are glad to see you. read more

Saturday afternoon we drive by the brewery for the first time only to find it locked. Leaving the parking lot, a Dale Bros van was entering, and the guy stopped and asked if we were headed to their new(?) location. We went, and were glad that we did. They were holding a Oktoberfest party with great food, ice cream, live band, and, most importantly, beer! They had three beers on tap, Pomona Queen, California Black Beer, and Oktober Fiesta. Being a Hop Head, none fit my preferred style, but all three were very good. Just because I prefer Ales over Lagers doesn't mean that I can't enjoy and appreciate a good beer nonetheless. The Oktober Fest ranked as my favorite of the three. The event was also their first foray with an IPA. Like New Years Eve with a countdown to Midnight, the Runway IPA was only being served after 6:00 PM. Talking to a guy standing in line ahead of us, he said this was the first public offering. An IPO for IPA? Sure, count us in! I took four bombers of the IPA to go and have enjoyed three so far. The beer is not overly hopped so those that are new to ales shouldn't hesitate to taste and enjoy. Thanks to Andy for giving us directions and taking the time to welcome us, and the two nice ladies (one, an owner?) at the entrance table for taking care of the IPA purchase, right at the stroke of Midnight,,,,er, 6:00 PM. Happy IPA Year!!!!!!!! read more

Great place to grab a cold one after a long day of work. Came here on Monday and was excited to see that the Mexican Hot Chocolate beer was back. (Hint of chocolate and habanero) What made it even better was that it was taco truck night. Nothing cures the Monday blues like a trip to Dale Bros Brewery. read more

My wife and I love this place so much. The staff genuinely care about you. Even greets us by our name!! They take the time to try and get to know you if you give them the chance. If not, they're always happy as can be. LNB has come a long way and I continue to see them grow so much. Prices are fair and talk about a chill atmosphere. Even if you just wanted to sit down and relax, not say a word to someone, this is the spot. On big game days, they bust out the projector so you can enjoy a rivalry or camaraderie. Thanks, Dales... I mean Last Name Brewing for making my wife and I feel special every time we come here. Keep it up guys!! Our favorite is the Cream Ale. Get Witty Wit It is a close second. Then the third is when my wife and I diverge. Haha. She likes the Oat of this World (flavorful stout with 11%; now on Nitro!). My third is their Hop Pun D.I.P.A. I can't figure out when they'll have the Mangonero but that one... oh gosh... can't even begin to describe how good it is. Please please lemme know when that batch is in!!! read more

This place is great. They just recently relocated to this new bigger building and are open now to sample the beer. Pomona Queen is my favorite. They have several different kinds to try including a new IPA. They usually have something different going on every night and they have a giant calendar hanging on the wall so you can view the up coming events. All the bar tenders are great and if you want you can get a personal tour of the brewery where they show you where all the magic happens. read more

LOVE!! I always have a good time coming to this brewery. Very inviting atmosphere, I've been here during the week or weekends and I always encounter a good conversation with random people! Love their Pomona Queen, light and crisp! read more

So we decided to try this brewery for the first time, since Thompsons brewery in Riverside is relocating. The place itself is really nice, good atmosphere and cool decor. I decided to go straight for their nitro stout beer since that's my go to beer. I was really disappointed!! It tasted horrible, absolutely flavorless. I'm not one to ever complain but I had to return this beer. I couldn't force myself to drink it. The guy behind the counter was really cool about it. I ended up getting the flight to taste different beers. I only liked one. I couldn't finish the other beers. I was hoping that this place would be our go to brewery since it's so close to home. But I will say that my wife and my sister liked the Mango IPA beer. read more

Stopped into this very cool place during our vacation. The beers were excellent. Not being a big beer drinker, there were multiple I enjoyed. There was plenty of space to sit and the staff was amazing. Would definitely recommend to anyone passing through to check this place out! read more

Great brewery, have been here a couple times now as it is a bit of a drive from me and have never been disappointed. The interior and exterior is nice and inviting, big open spaces with plenty of seating, big bar to order from with lots of people working usually. They do events and have food trucks out and at least 8+ beers on tap at all times. I really liked the mango one they had awhile back as well as their IPA. Friendly service always and it's well maintained. They do a lot of the beer festivals and bring their best each and every time I've been to one with them attending. Highly recommend giving this place a try. read more

I go here to satisfy my beer cravings. That's on a weekly basis :) .My boyfriend and I started going here when it was relatively new and it has grown so much. It gets a little crowded Friday nights but that's everywhere. Seating can be hard to find so come early. My favorite is the mango shandy. They used to have a mango IPA. Not sure if it's the same thing? They both taste good. I don't know why the mango shandy is on the expensive side. Another one to try is the Pomona queen. The cherry one was a little too bitter for me. Great place for good quality brew. read more

Awesome brewery! I came here after trying Pomona Queen at a local bar. I fell in love with the beer and wanted to check out their other selections. Found that their brewery was local to me so I decided to check it out. It's in a cool location and the environment is chill. People were allowed to bring in their dogs and there were people out front barbecuing and selling it. They also sell food inside. The staff was very friendly and very helpful when it came to helping me choose which beers I should try. I ended up trying a little bit of everything. I'd definitely like to come back here with some friends and hang out and have a couple of beers! read more

took forrest y here for our 6th wedding anniversary - went on a tour of the brewery and then got a flight of 4 beers each afterward. when we first arrived, i liked the laid-back feel of the place - easy parking (located in an industrial area so look for signs to avoid getting lost), photos of the wall, staff was friendly (although customers mostly keep to themselves), clean bathrooms, calendar of events (food trucks, live bands, industry/student nights - cool stuff). tour was intimate, chill, and educational and i liked that we had the opportunity to try beers at their different stages. tastings were generous, staff was really helpful in answering my newbie questions, their beers for the most part are really light and drinkable - just the way i like 'em. my favorites (and i tend towards mild, light, sweet, refreshing, not bitter lagers) were the pacific daylight summer seasonal and, everyone's favorite, the pomona queen. would definitely come back again to get a growler ($10 for the growler, $10 for a refill), good place to take a date, catch up with friends read more
