About Hop Merchants Bottle Shop & Taproom

Hop Merchants Bottle Shop & Taproom is a craft beer bottle shop and tasting room. We offer 16 rotating taps of Los Angeles-area beer as well as a wide variety of bottles and cans from your favorite independent breweries, which you can purchase to go or to enjoy in-house (with $1.50 corkage).  We also have an open food policy, meaning outside food is welcome and delivery is even encouraged. It's all good!

Located in the NoHo Arts District of North Hollywood, California, our mission is to channel our passion for great beer, community, and create a fun, chill atmosphere for people to hang, drink, shop and debate the deeper mysteries of life...such as who would win in a fistfight between Batman and Captain America? What's the difference between partly cloudy and partly sunny?  If the Zombie Apocalypse started today, what would be your weapon of choice?  Why are there no such thing as B batteries?  If humans evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?

Although the cozy taproom of Hop Merchants felt a bit empty, the teams were quite lively for trivia tonight as Hey Mommy! took an early lead after doubling the first round. They stayed on top while We Have A Bad Feeling About This clawed there way up to second, followed by The Keg in third.

Even with a couple teams bowing out through the game, the entire cohort was singing and dancing to the epic playlist provided by Quizmaster Yael. Hear it for yourself next Wednesday when the scores are wiped clean and we do it all again!
