Hollywood's 33 Taps Opens Today, Celebrates Football With 1/2 Off Brews

Normally we avoid Hollywood like the plague, but when it comes to game days we're willing to make an exception. Especially for a good sports bar. And there's hopes that the new 33 Taps, located on Hollywood and Vine, will deliver. They're certainly off to a good start; this weekend they'll be offering two-for-one brews in honor of the football season starting. (The deal starts today and runs through Sunday.)
The 205-seat sports bar and restaurant will have 40 HD TV’s broadcasting all professional and collegiate sporting events. In addition to the variety of domestic and international brews on tap $4 to $6, they'll pour a $3 option daily. Not bad for Hollywood.
They'll also serve up beer cocktails like Micheladas, Boilermakers and Porchcrawlers, and shot-and-beer combos. There's talk of champagne cocktails and a full liquor bar too, but get off it. It's game day. Grab a brew and get over that highfalutin nonsense.
It's what you'll want to be drinking with their elevated pub grub, anyways. Beer-Baked Mac N’ Cheese with amber ale and a blend of four cheeses (Parmesan, blue, cheddar and Brie) or the 666 Diablo Wings tossed in a fiery habanero sauce are just a few of the options on the menu. There are a few vego dishes too. (This is Hollywood, after all.) Think margherita flatbread topped with basil, tomatoes and mozzarella or Penne Pasta with sun-dried tomatoes and wilted spinach.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
Thank you for your generous support and believing in independent news.
