Sunset Beer Company Bar

Echo Park, Los Angeles –

For those who dream of being able to drink several hundred craft beers in the comfort of their own homes, Sunset Beer Company may be the next best thing.

Tucked in the corner of a small strip mall, this half store/half beer bar has the cozy vibe of a living room juxtaposed with an overwhelming drink selection.

The entrance opens into the store section, where a cooler-lined wall showcases over three hundred different brews, and nearby tables display recommendations and special forty-ounce selections.

During the day, local hops snobs and young hipsters mill about the space, often staying longer than planned as the staff keeps the latest seasonal offerings coming.

Relaxed couples and casual groups of friends drop by later, making their way to an adjoining tasting room where they settle in on long couches in front of the tables by an open fireplace. Though the bar in back only features six taps with a rotating selection and a handful of wines by the glass, the rest of the store’s brews can be enjoyed on site for a small fee.

Outside food is welcome, and Friday and Saturday nights usually see food trucks pulling up out front, so guests can coat their stomachs as they work through the lengthy drinks menu.

A chill den that makes a night out feel like the best night in, Sunset Beer Company is a great spot for patrons to pregame, cool off, or just stock up for the weekend.
