I am visiting a friend this summer and was wondering which establishment has the better beer: Hops or Sarasota Brewing Company? I would also take any recommendations on places with good craft/microbrew selections, or any brewpubs other then the two I have listed. Thanks in advance.
also if you want a brewery pub, then I have heard there is a place over on Lemon Ave where the old Rustic Grill used to be. It is supposedly a micro brewery and he has a few standard beers, then he makes seasonals also.
I don't know the name, but it right near the corner of Fruitville and Lemon behind Station 400.
Thanks for the suggestions. Mr. Beery's has a pretty cool website, but I may have to hit the Shamrock by myself. I love dive bars, my wife on the other hand....
