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 […]
Cracked the cap on the 750ml can and poured into my favorite frosted mug, it was a hot afternoon so I was glad I remembered to throw it in the freezer the night before. The beer poured out of the can a hazy straw color with minimal head and low carbonation. Before I […]
It’s that time of the year again. Last week Stone released one of their most beloved seasonal beers, 2008’s Russian Imperial Stout. Buy a couple bottles if you’re lucky enough to find it, this is one of those beers that vanishes off the shelves pretty quickly. Part of the reason for this […]
With their 9% Belgian-style strong ale, Avery once again proves they can do no wrong.

Thanks to Ed, who packed this home with him.

Dropped in at Stuffed Sandwich a couple weeks ago for lunch, and they had nothing but stouts on tap. Old Rasputin, Stone Russian Imperial, Bison Chocolate, Moylan’s Dry, Barney Flats, and Speedway (yum yum) were still flowing while I was there, but once they dry up, they’re gone (*update: they are on to Barleywines. […]
Have you been out to your favorite bottle shop in the last week? LA has a new Flemish Sour Red that is finally being distributed out here, and it’s popping up on shelves all over town.
I tried this stuff over the summer in Seattle and I fully credit it with turning me on to […]
Remember way back when, before I had ever tried Green Flash? Now it’s a semi-frequent part of my repertoire. Nut Brown, Imperial IPA, the Barleywine, they’re all fantastic. Picked this bottle up for $4.69 at Vendome Toluca Lake. Map it!

Let me be the first second to admit it: I’ve fallen off the beer blogging bandwagon. I’ve been missing Session deadlines left and right. Heck, the last time I participated was way back in August. Why the lack of posts?
I guess I had just gotten a bit bored with my pedestrian […]
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 […]
Its hard to believe. When I was at Wine House the other day I found a great selection of Christmas beers, but they seemed to be all out of Sierra Nevada Celebration. Not a problem for Beverage Warehouse, they are rolling in the stuff.
Needless to say, Beverage Warehouse is a great place to […]
If you are looking for your Christmas beer fix, get over to Wine House as soon as possible, their Belgians are selling like hot cakes.
Pictured below: Affligem Noel, Val-Dieu Winter, De La Senne Equinox, Slapmutske Kerstmutske, Kerkom Winterkoninkske, Scaldis Noel, La Choulette De Noel.
I picked up some Equinox and La Choulette, but I’ve heard the […]
Picked up a single bottle of this stuff just for the sake of experimentation. It stayed in my fridge for a while until I filled up a cooler to take up to Malibu for the afternoon.
Tasted terrible, like artificial whipped cream and maraschino cherries. Bleh. Luckily I had also brought along some […]
I know I can’t be the only one who thinks this beer is overrated. And five bucks for an 8 oz beer? Maybe I would pay that for some Thomas Hardy Vintage that’s older than I am, but for Belzebuth? Never again.
The label kinda annoys me too. Hey guys! Look […]
How could you not love a beer with head like this?
Spicy, citrusy, and easy to find around town.
More of a summer beer, but who am I kidding? This is LA, drink this stuff whenever you like.
