Fresh out of the gates of their hard opening, Verdugo Bar is already working around the clock to dispel any rumors that LA doesn’t have a real beer scene.
This Tuesday, May 6th, Verdugo is welcoming Sarah Lescrauwaet of Duvel USA who is stopping by to conduct a beer and cheese pairing. The bar is […]
To celebrate the return of Dogfish Head to the California market, founder and President Sam Calagione will be pouring 90 Minute IPA, Midas Touch, and the new Palo Santo Marron, a unfiltered 12% malty brown ale aged in wood from the Paraguayan holy tree, Palo Santo.
This event is tonight, April 14th from 6pm to 10pm, […]
Tomorrow! Friday the 11th of April!
Sometime between 6 and 7 o’clock, the Daily Pint in Santa Monica is tapping a firkin of unfiltered Firestone Double Barrel Ale.
That’s right, Real Ale in Santa Monica. A rep from Firestone is bringing by a temporary beer engine for this single keg, and once it kicks, it’s […]
The Otheroom is one of the finer beer establishments on the westside that has not been written up on this blog before. Mainly because its crowded enough as it is and there’s no need to go telling even more people about it.
But here they are, celebrating their third year of beer and wine, I […]

Ever since the Great LA Beer Run of 2007, I’ve realized what huge possibilities there are for events like these. Something this awesome doesn’t come to LA everyday. So when it does, you need to clear your busy Saturday afternoon schedule, find a dog costume, and […]
You are invited to a place where the beer flows like wine. Where beautiful women instinctively flock, like the salmon of Capistrano. No, not Aspen. I’m talking about a little place called El Monte, California. And the beer will be flowing like water, or maybe even flowing like the oil […]
Anderson Valley, can you do no wrong? Ever since I tried your Summer Solstice back in July, I knew I’d found something special. That Cerveza Crema coats my gullet with velvety goodness that rivals even a snug velour jumpsuit in tactual pleasure.
I had high hopes for the Winter Solstice, and I’m happy to […]
Today, the third Tuesday of October, is Sticke Day. So take a moment to educate yourself about this rare style of beer, courtesy of the German Beer Institute (skip down if you find this sort of thing boring, otherwise, it’s time to geek out!):
Twice a year, […]
Welp, the first annual Great LA Beer Run came and went and I think everyone involved agrees it was a great success.
We started off at the Highland Park Gold Line stop. After a bit of meet and greet, name tags, and sunscreen, the first place we hit was the Rock ‘n’ Roll 7-Eleven on […]
When was the last time you rode your bike to go beer shopping? Probably been a while. Admit it, you never walk anywhere in LA. Well this Saturday, August 11th, you have the opportunity to get off your duff and visit not one, not two, but five of the best beer stores […]
Does anyone else love Mystery Science Theater 3000 as much I do? For God’s sake I have an MST3K mousepad. How’s that for geek capital?
Well apparently Mike Nelson, Crow, and Tom Servo escaped from the Satellite of Love (no word on Gypsy), and now Mike lives in San Diego and enjoys the local […]
Last night I went to an awesome beer tasting at Library Bar, hosted by Beer Chick Christina Perozzi. I will eventually write up a report on the night’s events, right after I finish my post on the Saint Arnold’s brewery tour.
The highlight of the evening was meeting Evan and Alex of Hot Knives, […]
Oh right, I forgot, here in the States we call it a “sausage” in the mouth (actually, let’s just call it a sausage).
The King’s Head holds a special place in my heart. It’s only a block away from the Promenade, but once you enter the front door, you feel like you’ve been transported across […]
Here in the good ol’ US of A, we have a knack for taking marginally important cultural holidays from other countries and turning them into National Binge Drinking holidays. There’s a bit of Chicken v. Egg controversy as to who is responsible for this national paradigm shift. Is it the beer companies with […]
