In Redondo Beach would probably be Najah's Place. There's so much great beer in the Southern CA area, you can wallow in it's greatness if you have time....and a car. If you have time, make an effort to drive a few hours to San Diego and you'll be glad you did.

Yes - that! Only 80-90 miles from Pizza Port Carlsbad, and from there, a quick jont east to Escondido & the Playboy Mansion of beer...er...Stone. And to the south...Green Flash, more Port, Lost Abbey, Ballast Point...

Ouch. You gotta be driving what....15-16 hrs? Gotta love California. Drive 16 hrs and only 4/5 of the way down to the border. As far as the Santa Barbara area goes, you have Figueroa (my favorite) along with Telegraph Brewing and Hollister Brewing. There's also a Firestone taproom in the area (in Buelton). So as you travel down there, you can make several stops along the way. If you are coming down Highway 101 or 1 (I'm guessing you are), San Luis Obispo is along the way as is Paso Robles.

Firestone should be pouring XV &/or Double Jack, etc...
