yardhouse is always a decent option.
what about wet willies?
or vine and barley if you have one in your area.
its only craft beer, and wine, and it is like no other place i have ever been
If you're ever in the Fort Walton Beach area, there's a little place over here called The Salty Duck. Tons of craft brews on tap and in the bottle, and free pool and air hockey. I really can't find a place that beats the latter.
Linger Lodge outside Bradenton Florida will give you a taste of old Florida, Course I haven't been down there in a while. It may be surrounded by Condos and housing developements now.
There really is two Floridas: the old florida, and the coastal tourist areas. Both are great, but if you can find an resaurant or bar on the water that is near a working fishing dock, it's the best. In my opinion of course.
The Old Salty Dog in Sarasota either location, City Island or Siesta Key are really great. Owned by a british family, so you know they have a few decent beers. Their specialty is a huge beer battered fried hot dog called the "Salty Dog".
Another is Star Fish Company in Cortez. A part of Bradenton. Very casual, but it doesn't get any fresher. It is right on the working dock.
ya know what i cant stand?
monk in the trunk
and key west sunshine ale.
they are both terrible beers. and they are both florida brews. it kinda makes me sad really.
Gainesville has two great dive bars: Salty Dog and Balls. Balls typically has a younger crowd and both can get really crowded. There's also a bar called Stubbies that has one of (if not the) best beer selections in town. When I'm in the Orlando area around UCF there's a bar right across from campus called Underground Blues. They've got a great beer selection and live music every Friday and Saturday night.
