Sunset Beer

This was one of L.A.’s first bottle shops—kinda like a grocery store/bar that sells and serves only beer. They have 10 or 15 refrigerated cases, so you can find beers from a specific country or a certain type—like a sour. It can be a little disorganized, like wandering through a record store for beer geeks—great for finding birthday presents for picky people. They have a bunch of board games and a bar, so you can hang out and relax. Get here before 9pm—after that, it gets crowded, and it’s harder to play Connect 4.
