We're taking you inside crowns and hops where the motto is to preserve culture and community . There's about 8000 breweries in the US and less than 1% are owned by black people . We created a movement and a brand truly focused on creating more diversity and inclusion in the craft industry when we first decided that Crowns and Hops was going to be a brewing company to really start producing our own beer .

But in popcorn form , an L A loyal viewer shows us her favorite shop and get a beer that pays homage to historically black owned universities . What's really amazing about the Music Center is how it has always been led by strong , powerful women .
