Half the fun of traveling somewhere is trying local favorites, and let’s face it, local brews are just cool! When you visit Monroe-West Monroe, you’re in for a treat with unique, local craft creations. With two well-established breweries, the craft beer selection in our area is superior!

Flying Tiger Brewery

Established in 2016, this brewery is “rich in history, respect, and tradition.” Flying Tiger Brewery sets out to honor and respect veterans and actives from all over. In fact, their name is in honor of the fighter squadron, The Flying Tigers. Since their opening, they have become a community staple. From their flagship series items like Jucee and Final Resting Place to their seasonal series items and hard seltzers, there is something for everyone. Did we mention they have some of the best pizza around? Victory Pizza, located inside the brewery, serves handcrafted pizzas and bread. With fresh ingredients and dough made daily you’re in for a treat. So, like their motto says, “drink heroic beer” when you visit Monroe-West Monroe!

Flying Heart Brewing & Pub

Opening their doors in 2021, this brewery and pub has become a recognizable landmark in Downtown West Monroe. Any palate is sure to be pleased with one of Flying Heart’s six beers served year-round or one of their rotating seasonal brews – but that’s not all. They are also known for their craft cocktails! No trip to Flying Heart is complete without trying one of their thin, NY-style pizzas – they even offer cauliflower crust, and it’s divine! Pretzels, wings, and wraps are also on the menu. Flying Heart is open 365 days a year, so you can enjoy a cold brew anytime you visit Monroe-West Monroe!
