Dionicess IX

Over the coming days and weeks, I will highlight L.A. Beer Week events that you should consider attending. Up first is Dionicess IX…..

These are some heavy craft beer hitters behind this event. Just google the names on the above poster and you will see why this will be an exciting time.

And Gev has this teaser, “..the use of beer in the cocktails will be far from trite…sure, most of what we are doing is using an appropriately exact beer for the drink…but the beer component may also incarnate as a beer reduction, a distilled beer and hop-infused spirits.”

You may not know about the burgeoning craft beer and cocktail scene but after Dionicess IX, you will be on the lookout for more.

Steingarten LA

There is a new westside beer stop. Steingarten LA.

Check out what the UrbanDaddy blog introduced them as….”Introducing Steingarten, a bold new German hall of unusual meats, regal cocktails and strong European beers, opening Tuesday on Pico.”

Sounds a little medieval but any LA Beer Bar is a friend of mine. (not just FaceBook friends either.) They will also be showing up on the FoodGPS beer blast so you can get the beer scoop.

Here is the location and hours:
10543 W Pico Blvd. Los Angeles
Los Angeles, CA, 90064
Mon – Sun: 11:00 am – 2:00 am
