With over 300 breweries, beer bars, and craft beer stores in Los Angeles, we felt it’s time for us to give you guys some insight into where our personal preferences lie.
In this first episode, we dive into the Downtown Los Angeles beer scene, walking you through the spots that we personally prioritize when visiting the area or when recommending to our family and friends.
