        <content>Can someone point out stores that have quality beer selection in West Los Angeles? I am tired of the unimaginative beer selection from local supermarkets. I am looking for good microbrews such as Anderson Valley, Russian River, Telegraph, ect... 

I appreciate your help! </content>

      <content>I live in Las Vegas and a couple times a year I drive all the way to the LA area for the main purpose of stocking up on good beers we can't get here. Lone Hill Liquors in Glendora is one store I always pick up a good number of harder to find craft beers. Here is their review page on Beer advocate:

Another store worth the drive is Hi-Time Wine Cellars in Costa Mesa. Yes it is a bit of a drive but again, they have a great selection of hard to find beers and they even let you mix six packs which many places don't.

I haven't found any store to beat either of these in the general LA area, so if you're serious about picking up some good and harder to find brews then I think you'll find these places well worth the drive.   </content>
