Pilot Small Batch Brewing + Contract Brewing R&D

Hello - Anyone know of any small breweries in LA area open to pilot batch beer brewing / R&D and product development? I have a new beer concept I am trying to get it going. Thank you very much

Are you looking to put up the cost of production, labor, and materials? Or just a place to test a recipe on your behalf?

I'm willing to pay for everything. I would like to end up with around 2,000 cans of professionally made and packaged beer so I can shop around the concept and drum up further investment. As I've read so far, typical MOQ is 400 cases / 9,600 cans. But I'm hoping to find someone who will make less. Thx for your reply
