I am a big fan of craft beer. I love discovering new beers, meeting locals and exploring cities near and far. My appreciation for beer is vast; I love lagers, sour beers, barrel-aged stouts, coffee porters, WC IPA’s and dabble with hazy IPA’s on occasion (drinking them less and less).

Los Angeles Craft Beer

My focus is on the beer for this list; not where to drink outside, not where to take your kids/dogs, and not places that are most convenient for tourists. These are curated bars, bottle shops, breweries & taprooms to drink some of the best beer in So Cal.

If I am missing spots or want to let me know places to check out, please get in touch.
