Good selection of craft brews, a little pricey, but overall a solid option if you are in the area

A rather small and crowded bar in Santa Monica with a small, yet thoughtful tap and bottle selection. I arrived just before a shift change, so my service was spotty. I was quite pleased with the Happy Hour prices of $4 pints. You have to sit at the bar unless you are ordering food, and then you can score a table, provided one of the few are available.

Nice spot for some craft brews in Santa Monica. Nice patio out back. Rate bottles are wildly overpriced, but drafts aren’t too bad.

Pretty nice place on main ave. went at a slow time, had ok service. I really like being able to get half pints so I can sample more beers.

Been here once for a couple of hours. I will be back. The bartender was friendly, the other patrons were friendly. I always know the vibe of the place is good when I ask someone about the beer they are drinking and they offer me a sip. The place has 29 taps, and what I like is that I can go to their website and they have an up to date tap list. They also offer flights of five beers for ten bucks with special beers, costing a little extra. The happy hour price for food was excellent and I got a big plate of nachos for around $5 and about 8 chicken wings for about $4.

One of the better beer bars I have visited. A great selection including many local CA brews, including brand new breweries’ offerings. Food is very good, good service. My local hangout when in Santa Monica.

Great beer selection. They often have special events featuring beer styles, breweries or countries.

A great stop with great brews and bottles. They seem to focus mostly on California brews and also some belgians, which aint no problem with me. This place does get packed but the bartenders are quick and are also knowledgeable. All the proper glassware is used here which for me its not a big thing but a nice touch and it shows how they value beer. The last thing I want to point out are the restrooms. Yes, the restrooms, there fancy ass hell. LOL. That something you should see. Overall, I would like to drop by again if it wasnt to far from my house.
