I'll be in Santa Monica for work next week. I've checked beer fly for the city itself, but what are the beer bars and bottle shops in the vicinity worth my while? I'd also be up for a smallish bottle share.
^^ This, plus maybe worth making a trip to Najas Place in Redondo Beach (about a 15-20min drive). Bottle shops, I'd say Beverage Warehouse in Marina del Rey, Vendome in Beverly Hills.
I've enjoyed a Kern Just Outstanding at Father's Office, and a sour from an LA brewery (Eagle Rock, I think?) at Library. Both were pleasant enough places to check out.
