I know that most people on this site are from outside CA, but you would think that Los Angeles being the major center (or centre depending on which continent you're on) that it is would have some of the best beer, or at least one of the best selections of beer around. You have to search hard to even find a brew pub. And the selection at the super market isn't that great either. The only thing you can get from Sierra Nevada is the pale ale. From further north you can find Red Hook ESB (got some in the fridge right now) but that's it. This summer I visited relatives and friends in Salem and Portland, OR and Seattle, WA. I drove back with the entire back seat of my car filled with beer you can't find anyhwere down here. Best beer run ever. Screw it. I'm moving to Washington.
