Beachwood BBQ. Which one?

Long Beach, easily. It's bigger, and has a ton more beers on tap.

 

SB

 

what he said

if it's only about the beer, then check out their Hop Cam first: http://www.beachwoodbbq.com/hopcam.html

 

Kinda like asking do your prefer your son or daughter?
LB is much bigger, more space, more beers, just a different vibe from SB.
SB will always feel like home. Miss Kyle though!!

 

Highly recommend the Alesmith/Cigar City collabo... available at both spots now!

 

Seal Beach is nice but usually pretty busy because of it's small size. I'd choose Long Beach for the fact that it has more space and more house beers available.

 

Long Beach because of the space and parking. It seems they hold more events there also, oh yea and I work 5 minutes away.

 

Depends whats on tap...

 

^^^ definitely. I love both locations. SB has a cozy, homey vibe and the food options are a little beefier. I like going there for lunch. LB is great because it has a bigger tap selection and more space. I couldn't decide

 

I agree with this. But I go to LB a lot more because of all the house beers. Currently SB has 3 Beachwood beers on and LB has 17. Even with all the great guest taps most of the time I'm drinking Beachwood stuff.

 

Both, for very different reasons.

Cheers,

 

Seal Beach has a better feel, to me, and I find the food to be much more consistent there. If you're going to eat... that's for sure my recommendation. Sentimentally, it's also my favorite, for sure.

Long Beach is fun in its own right, much less hassle in finding a space to settle in, plus a larger selection of beers (most importantly, a larger selection of Julian's incredible beers). It's just generally more convenient to get to, as well, and despite my preference for Seal Beach it's the one I end up at most.

Really, you can't go wrong, though.

 

yeah I mostly go to the LB one for the Beachwood beers unless if they have some amazing guest beer(s)

 

Spot on. SB is a cozy small town local pub feeling kind of place while LB is THE brewery and has a more hip urban industrial vibe going. We have been supporting them since the day they opened having a home in old town Seal beach when they moved into our old favorite taco joint back then, Hectors, best chicken taco's ever !, and we said, 'what the hell" lets see what they got. Well we all know now. I absolutely love both locals and we visit both regularly. However, when I am in need of growlers of Julians amazing hoppy beers I make the run to 3rd St to fill up for friends and family because that is where you get everything.

Cheers,

 

SB for the bottle list, LB for space and taps.

 

HOUSE BEER

 

Are you planning on getting growler fills?

 

Almost said can't compare , but went with LB.

 

SB location is the original. If your going to visit LB then you should drive the 15-20 minute south to SB to get the full BW experience. Even though its alot smaller its the atmosphere you get that you don't at LB. And I will add the service is a lot better at SB than LB. Everytime I'm at LB there are a half dozen workers standing around talking and doing nothing while your waiting for service. Last time I was there for a growler fill the bartender (wont mention any names - dude) was very slow. I will go to the LB location for growler fills or for larger family/friends get together party. And it seems like everytime I go to the LB location there is a new face their. The SB location still has most of the workers/bartenders since I've been going every week the last 6 n half years. Yes Kyle has left but Kurt has fit in well at the SB location. Both locations are great in their own way. So no need to pick the favorite. Just hit up both locations while your in town.
