The 16 Best Bars In Long Beach - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"There are so many great craft breweries in Long Beach, it can be hard to pin down a favorite. But in terms of all-around appeal, Ambitious Ales in Bixby Knolls always lands at the top of our list. The taproom is spacious enough to project a ballgame on the wall without feeling like you're drinking inside an airplane hanger, plus they've got two shaded, dog-friendly patios that are ideal for warm nights. The always-changing beer list is fantastic whether you're into IPAs, sours, or stouts, and you can pick up some cans to-go, too. And most importantly, a beer here means you'll have easy access to Thunderbolt Pizza next door, an excellent pie shop that will happily delivery warm garlic knots or hot wings right to your table." - brant cox, nikko duren
