Four friends and former colleagues at the Bruery in Placentia opened Everywhere Beer in Orange. The space, previously occupied by Gunwhale Ales, is cheery and family-friendly, with clever and fun graphic-design touches everywhere, from walls to tasting glasses. Even the color palette of the beers is engaging. More than a dozen brews on the board include a couple of new products each week. Among them recently: Beautiful Something, a German-style lager, and Elegance, a Berliner Weisse-inspired sour with pomegranate. Seriously good seltzers include the agua fresca-inspired Passion Fruit Mango. IPAs, a core offering, range from the racy, piney West Coast-style Only Ever to the New England-style Incredible Now, a double-dry-hopped hazy triple IPA. The philosophy is to “understate rather than overstate,” says cofounder Daniel Muñoz, but tell that to the stouts: Talk Out Loud, a pastry stout suggesting chocolate-covered oranges, or the Origin of Everything, an imperial stout brewed with cacao nibs and vanilla beans sourced from three countries each. Top-notch collaborators have included Berkeley-based TCHO Chocolate and San Juan Capistrano’s Heritage Barbecue. Speaking of which, Everywhere has just launched a barbecue sauce, a collaboration with Infinity Sauces, called Tricks to Stay Awake. 1501 W. Orangewood Ave., Orange, 657-282-0051, everywherebeer.com
