Marina Wine & Craft Beer Bar

09/30/2026

Open Wed 9/30 to Sun 10/4 · the skeletons moved in Monday night.
We locked the doors, pulled out the ladders and let the crew loose. Say hi to Noah (red scarf) next time you're in. He's taller than you and he knows it.

09/29/2026

October is officially here.
The patio heard the news and poured itself something red.

Five nights, four bands, one wide-open Wednesday, and one captain's hat opportunity on Sunday.

We have done more with less.

This Week's Music Lineup

Wednesday, Sep 30
🕯️ No Band, All Conversation | 5:00 to 10:00 PM
No band tonight, which means you can actually hear your date laugh at your jokes. Or notice when they don't.

Grab a quiet corner for two, or pull up to the bar and let the table debate which w**e smells like "a campfire, but nice."

It's also the last night of September, and we'd hate for the month to leave without a proper toast.

Thursday, Oct 1
🎸 Radio Flyer | 6:00 to 9:00 PM
70s, 80s and 90s hits. The songs you know every word to, plus a few you'll claim you forgot until the chorus hits.

Last time, the whole patio was singing "I'm a Believer" and "Ventura Highway." Warm up accordingly.

Friday, Oct 2
🎸 2nd Street Band | 7:00 to 10:00 PM
Gregg Young leads a pool of about 40 rotating musicians. Reggae, blues, Latin, smooth jazz, whatever the night decides.

They're also the band that handed a mic for a surprise 4 Non Blondes moment. We can't promise the mic, but the precedent exists.

Saturday, Oct 3
🎹 Myles Roach, 60s and 70s All Request | 7:00 to 10:00 PM
You pick the songs. Myles plays them. Your table provides live commentary.

Bring a request, and a backup in case the next table has better reflexes.

Sunday, Oct 4
⛵ Brown the CousCous Yacht Rock Night | 6:30 to 9:30 PM
Yes, that's Myles on keys again. Saturday he takes your requests, Sunday he takes the boat out. Same guy, different decade.

If you own a captain's hat, this remains your weekly justification.

🍷 Coming Next Wednesday: Member Night (Oct 7)

First Wednesday of every month, we open four new and different w**es for our W**e Club members.

Taste all four. Pick your favorite. That bottle goes home with you.
Read that again. You drink w**e, you vote with your taste buds, and the winner rides home in your passenger seat.

Next Wednesday, someone at the bar will watch a member walk out with a bottle and ask, "Wait, how do I get in on that?"

Be the one walking out, not the one asking.

Join the W**e Club now and start enjoying benefits immediately

Five nights. One patio. A bar that treats "just one" like a rough draft.

See you at the bar.

Not your typical w**e bar. And we like it that way.

Love, your Marina W**e Bar Crew

09/29/2026

Thu 10/1 to Sun 10/4 · live music every night, somewhere between 6 and 10pm

🎸 Thu 10/1, 6–9pm: Radio Flyer (70s, 80s & 90s)
🎶 Fri 10/2, 7–10pm: 2nd Street Band
🎤 Sat 10/3, 7–10pm: Myles Roach, 60s & 70s all request
⛵ Sun 10/4, 6:30–9:30pm: Brown the CousCous, Yacht Rock Night

Four nights, four decades, one patio. Pace yourself. Or don't. Nobody has ever paced themselves through yacht rock.

**e

09/28/2026

September is leaving. October would like to know why you haven’t made plans yet.

Thursday, October 1: Radio Flyer · 6–9 p.m.
The ’70s, ’80s and ’90s. Pick your decade. We won’t check your birth certificate.

Friday, October 2: Legends of Rock Dance Band · 7–10 p.m.
For the friend who claims they don’t dance. Interesting theory.

Saturday, October 3: Myles Roach · 7–10 p.m.
’60s and ’70s All Request. Finally, somewhere your opinion on the next song is being solicited.

Sunday, October 4: Brown the CousCous Yacht Rock Night · 6:30–9:30 p.m.
A little yacht rock before Monday starts making demands.

Which night are you claiming? Tag the person who needs to put it on their calendar.

09/25/2026

International travel. Considerably less airport.

We’ve got Chenin Blanc from Baja California, Sauvignon Blanc from South Africa, and an Italian Arneis you’re welcome to point at instead of pronounce.

Three white w**es. Three places to start. No need to commit to a whole bottle just to meet someone new.

Which one gets your first glass: Mexico, South Africa, or Italy?

And what’s the best w**e you’ve ever discovered on a trip?

09/23/2026

There’s always one friend who says, “Let’s just stop by for a bit.”

Very believable. Until they find a seat on the patio, start talking to the next table, and announce that EVERY song is their song.

Which one are you?

The patio conversationalist, the music lover, or the person still trying to get everyone to leave?

Tag the friend who turns a quick stop into the whole evening.

Not your typical w**e bar. And we like it that way.

09/22/2026

September is almost over.

Southern California, however, has apparently declined to participate.

We’re heading back into the mid-80s this week, which means the patio gets another round, the w**e stays cold, and nobody needs to start pretending it’s sweater weather yet.

Honestly, we’re fine with that.

This Week's Music Lineup

Wednesday, September 23
🎻 Wh***ey Walkers | 6:30 PM
Wednesday is one of those nights where staying home sounds completely reasonable... right up until somebody texts, “Want to grab a glass?”
Then suddenly you have plans.

Wh***ey Walkers will take it from there.

Thursday, September 24
🎷 Cris Barber Jazz | 6:30 PM
A warm Thursday evening, a glass of w**e, and Cris Barber Jazz.
This is considerably more civilized than whatever you were going to do at home.

Friday, September 25
🎹 Seal Beach Jazz Trio | 7:00 PM
Friday night gets the jazz treatment.
The workweek is over. Your inbox can survive without you.
Probably.

Saturday, September 26
🎤 Myles Roach | 7:00 PM
Myles is back Saturday night with requests, throwbacks, and the very real possibility that someone at your table will insist on hearing their song.
Choose wisely.
You may have to defend your selection publicly.

Sunday, September 27
🛥️ “Brown the CousCous” Yacht Rock Night | 6:30 PM
Sunday returns to its natural state:
Smooth music.
Cold w**e.
A completely unnecessary amount of yacht rock.
If you own a captain’s hat, this remains your weekly opportunity to justify the purchase.

🍷 W**e Joke of the Week

I was going to have just one glass of w**e.

Then I remembered I’m terrible at setting unrealistic goals.

See you at the bar. We’ll pretend your second glass was our idea.

Long Beach is expected to spend much of the second half of the week in the mid-80s, so consider this your reminder that the patio still has life left in it.

Grab some friends, find a spot, order something you haven’t tried before, and let “we’re only staying for one” become the lie we all know it is.

Not your typical w**e bar. And we like it that way.

Love, your Marina W**e Bar Crew

Your weekly Pourcast: five nights of live music. Your couch has filed a complaint.

🎶 Wednesday, September 23
Wh***ey Walkers Band · 6:30–9:30 p.m.
Wh***ey in the name. W**e in your glass. We can work with that.

🎷 Thursday, September 24
Cris Barber Jazz · 6:30–9:30 p.m.
A little jazz. A little less hurry.

🎹 Friday, September 25
Seal Beach Jazz Trio · 7–10 p.m.
Close the laptop. It knows what it did.

🍷 Saturday, September 26
Myles Roach · 7–10 p.m.
Something to put in the group chat besides “we should make plans.”

⚓ Sunday, September 27
Brown the CousCous Yacht Rock Night · 6:30–9:30 p.m.
For those of us whose yacht remains, technically, imaginary.

Which night has your name on it? Tag the person you want in the next chair.

09/19/2026

This is Paul. Friend of the owner. Taking his guest-bartender moment very seriously.

Look at that concentration.

We appreciate a man who respects the assignment. 🍷

A little behind-the-bar fun at Marina W**e.

**e

09/18/2026

Your group chat has been saying ‘we should get together’ for a while now.

We have tables. We have w**e.

The scheduling committee can take it from here. 🍷

Marina W**e · Alamitos Bay Landing, Long Beach

**e

09/15/2026

Your couch has had plenty of time with you. We’d like a turn. 🍷

Here’s the Marina W**e Pourcast for September 17–20:

Thursday, September 17
Southside Jazz · 6–9 PM

Friday, September 18
Mystic Tiger Band · 7–10 PM

Saturday, September 19
Cadre Scott · 7–10 PM

Sunday, September 20
Brown the Cous Cous · Yacht Rock Night
6:30–9:30 PM

Pick a night. Text the friends. Give the couch some space.

Marina W**e · Alamitos Bay Landing, Long Beach
All times Pacific.

09/15/2026

Some weeks require planning.

This is not one of those weeks.

You really only need to answer two questions:

What night are you coming?

And...

Are you starting with red, white or something bubbly?

We’ve got four very different nights of live music lined up, which means there’s a reasonably good chance one visit turns into, “Well... maybe we’ll come back tomorrow.”

We support this kind of decision-making.

This Week's Music Lineup

Thursday, September 17
🎷 South Side Jazz
6:00–9:00 PM
Ease into the weekend a little early with South Side Jazz.
Good w**e. Live jazz. No urgent emails requiring your attention.
At least none we acknowledge after 6 PM.

Friday, September 18
🐅 Mystic Tiger Band
7:00–10:00 PM
The Mystic Tiger Band takes over Friday night.
We could tell you to behave responsibly and head home early.
But that seems wildly inconsistent with the spirit of Friday.

Saturday, September 19
🎤 Cadre Scott
7:00–10:00 PM
Saturday belongs to Cadre Scott.
Grab some friends, settle in, and order that bottle you were pretending you were only “thinking about.”
You’ve thought about it enough.

Sunday, September 20
🛥️ Brown the CousCous Yacht Rock Night
6:30–9:30 PM
And because Sunday has developed traditions around here...
Brown the CousCous is back.
Smooth music. Cold w**e. Questionable nautical fashion choices.

🍷 W**e Joke of the Week

I was told to stop making w**e jokes.

So I’m letting this one breathe. 🍷

Some things simply shouldn’t be messed with.
Four nights. Four bands. Plenty of w**e.

You take care of choosing the night.
We’ll take care of the rest.

Not your typical w**e bar. And we like it that way.

Love, your Marina W**e Bar Crew

Apparently Southern California looked at the calendar, saw September, and said:

“That’s adorable.”

We’re looking at temperatures pushing into the 90s this week!

So while the rest of Long Beach debates whether it’s technically still summer, we’re going with the more important question:

Red, white, rosé or b**r?

Come cool off, grab something cold, and settle in. We’ve got another full week of live music ahead.

This Week's Music Lineup

Wednesday, September 9
🎻 Wh***ey Walkers Band | 6:30 PM
Wednesday is supposed to be the hottest day of the week.
That sounds like a very compelling scientific argument for drinking something chilled while listening to live music.
We don’t make the weather. We just know how to cope with it.

Thursday, September 10
🐅 Mystic Tiger Band | 6:30 PM
The Mystic Tiger Band takes over Thursday night, which is a much better answer than “we know there’s music, but that’s about it.”
Come grab a glass, settle in, and let Thursday start acting a little more like
Friday.

Friday, September 11
🎸 Mike Stagg Band | 7:00 PM
Friday night has arrived.
Put away the laptop. Ignore the laundry. Come listen to the Mike Stagg Band and make significantly better choices about how to spend your evening.

Saturday, September 12
🎤 The Paul Wayne Show | 6:30 PM
Saturday night with The Paul Wayne Show.
Grab some friends, claim your spot, order something you haven’t tried before and see where the evening goes.
Planning ahead is overrated.

Sunday, September 13
🛥️🎂 Brown the CousCous Yacht Rock Night + Jen Ford’s Birthday Party
6:30 PM
This Sunday is not just Yacht Rock Sunday.
We’re celebrating Jen Ford’s birthday!
So Brown the CousCous will be bringing the smooth tunes while we raise a glass to Jen and give her exactly what every birthday deserves:
Friends, w**e, music and an unreasonable amount of yacht rock.

Come help us celebrate.
Birthday attire is optional.

Captain’s hat strongly encouraged.

☀️ Summer Apparently Isn’t Finished

The hottest part of the week hits early, with Long Beach forecast into the 90s through Thursday before temperatures ease into the 80s for the weekend.

Translation:
Find somewhere comfortable.
Order something cold.
Stay longer than you planned.
We happen to know a place.
Not your typical w**e bar. And we like it that way.

The Long Weekend Starts... Right About Now

There are two kinds of people this week.

The ones who are counting down to the long weekend...
..and the ones who have already mentally checked out.

If you're reading this, we're guessing it's the second group.

Good news: you've earned it.

We've got w**e, live music, a Member Night tonight, and an extra day to celebrate because we're OPEN on Labor Day!

This Week's Music Lineup

🍷 Tonight – Member Appreciation W**e Night

It's the first Wednesday of the month, which means it's time for one of our favorite traditions.

🥂 Member W**e Night
🕖 7:00–9:00PM

Come taste this month's featured w**es, catch up with fellow members, and discover a few new favorites.

Not a member yet? You're always welcome to join us and see what everyone's talking about.

🎶 Chris Laxamana | 6:30–9:30PM

Chris is providing the soundtrack while we provide the w**e. Sounds like a pretty good Wednesday to us.

Thursday
🎸 Radio Flyers | 6:00–9:00PM
Throwback hits, good w**e, and a reminder that Thursdays before a holiday weekend are basically Fridays.

Friday
🎤 Legends of Rock Dance Band | 7:00–10:00PM
Classic rock. Great energy.
An excellent excuse to stay out longer than planned.

Saturday
🎹 All Request Night with Myles Roach | 7:00–10:00PM
You call the songs.
Myles makes them happen.

Choose wisely...
or don't. That's half the fun.

Sunday
🛥️ Brown The Cous Cous | 6:30–9:30PM
Your weekly Yacht Rock tradition continues.
Smooth music.
Cold w**e.
No Sunday scaries allowed.

🇺🇸 Labor Day Monday – We're OPEN!
Most Mondays we're closed.
Not this one.
🕐 Open 1:00PM

Whether you're looking for one last toast to summer, a break from the barbecue, or just a great place to spend the afternoon, we'll be here.

Because three-day weekends deserve a proper finale.

🍷 TONIGHT! Member Appreciation W**e Night (But All Are Welcome!)

Tonight is our monthly Member Appreciation W**e Tasting Night—one of our favorite nights of the month.

🍷 Complimentary w**e tasting for members
🎉 Great food, great friends, and plenty of laughs
🎶 Live music to keep the party going

If you've never experienced Member Night, this is the perfect month to see what all the excitement is about.

FREE FOR MEMBERS
$35 FOR NON-MEMBERS

🍷 Why We Love Holiday Weekends

They remind us what Marina W**e is really about.

Friends meeting up.

Neighbors becoming regulars.

One glass turning into a great conversation.

That's why people keep coming back.

Not your typical w**e bar. And we like it that way.

Have a safe, relaxing Labor Day weekend.

And if you're looking for us...

We'll be the ones with the w**e.

— Your Marina W**e Crew 🍇🍷
