    Anyone recommend any decent restaurants in the LA area that has a good vintage beer bottle list?

    Preferably one that has bottles for the table and bottles to go?

    You can try 38 degrees, I wouldnt go saying that their bottle list is stellar but sometimes they have some things. Although to be honest the last things I bought there was FW 13 and Alpine ichabon but this was a while ago

    Not LA but the Beachwood BBQ's Seal Beach location has a great bottle list.

    Blue Palms has a pretty good bottle list, too.

    Boneyard Bistro has vintage bottles. A few are on the list but you have to ask Aaron (owner) what he may have stashed away! Sunset Beer Co. also has vintage bottles.

    Steingarten LA has a pretty insane list.

    Lucky Baldwins in Old Town Pasadena has a great vintage bottle list, lots of old Firestone Anniversaries, vintage Parabolas, Bigfoots dating to the 90s, Thomas Hardy's to the 90s, tons of great newish bottles.

    You're looking for the Stuffed Sandwich in San Gabriel. More of a deli than a "restaurant," it's a uniquely LA institution, and a must-visit when in down. Bigfoots and Anchor OSAs all the way back to the early 1980s, very old Samichlaus, and any number of Stone vintages (back into the early years) if you get lucky. Foodwise, get the Pastrami With Love.

    Yes - Stuffed Sandwich is THE place in the L.A. area for aged/vintage bottles - clearly. I had focused on L.A. proper as perhaps did some others. Clearly, Stuffed Sandwich. And, forget the Pastrami! Get the spaghetti sandwich! You've never had anything like it! Believe it or not....it's great!
