SIPS & SUDS Anaheim was founded by brewers and winemakers in the mid-tolate 1800s, so it’s only natural that the city would return to those roots. There are now 20 award-winning breweries to choose from, making it easier than ever to spend an afternoon beer tasting. New in Town RAD BEER CO.

Don’t be afraid to try a style outside of your usual preference; every brew—from the pilsners to the stouts— is lauded by amateurs and aficionados alike. 1301 S. Lewis St., Anaheim; getradbeer.com
