Here’s some interesting news on breweries and festivals from around the state:
Some days I research and plan a visit to a brewery, and some days they just fall into your lap. Driving down from North Florida, my wife and I decided to stop at Yellow Dog Eats in historic downtown New Smyrna Beach. It’s really cute downtown, and ordinarily this is where the story would end. … Continue reading Brewery Visit – New Smyrna Beach Brewing @nsbbrewing
It’s always a bit of a bummer on my end when I find a brewery, only to find what they are brewing is coffee. I appreciate the artistry of coffee, but I am not an ideal coffee drinker. I am nowhere near able to discern varieties, regions, and what not. My exposure to coffee is … Continue reading Brew Review – Foxtail Coffee Blonde by Ravenous Pig

This was a long time ago, so it was the glass bottles with the really awesome old-timey pirate ship logo they used to have. I really like the new iconography of a completely refreshed … Continue reading Brew Review – Passion of the Heights by Florida Ave. Brewing @floridaavebrew
It is with great satisfaction that I can report that there is a green bench at Green Bench Brewing. There’s only one, and it’s sort of hidden by the bathrooms, but they have at least one. I will readily admit that I expected a lot more, with the historical significance of the green bench to … Continue reading Brewery Visit – Green Bench Brewing @greenbenchbrew
