Before I start the review I have a fun fact to share. Before I visited Pateidolia Brewing in Vero…read moreBeach Florida, I looked at some pictures and read some reviews. I don't usually read the reviews for breweries because I want to give an honest review based on my experience. But what drew me in is all the pictures of the draft board seemed out of focus and weirdly lit. I chalked that up to maybe not cleaning off the camera lense before taking the pictures, but what I found was quite the opposite. When I took my picure I also couldn't get a good shot. A little blurry and maybe slightly out if focus. And what I found is the place is fairly dark inside until your eyes get acclaimatted. And the way they have the menu board lit, there is a glare which makes all the photos of the beer menu board come out weird. I took multiple photos and finally settle on the best one, but it also wasn't great. So onto the review. It is small inside and has outiside seating. But what they lack in size, they make up in personality. Pareidolia is a little brewery with a big personality to match the name. Got to connect with the beertenders on duty Les and Kelly. Sorry guys if I misspelled your names, but you guys were awesome. I kept calling them Mel and Stacy, no reason why, but I did finally learn their names about the same time as I really started loving their wonderful beer. And another fun fact is their brewer is a lady. I am very partial to women who brew beer, because I feel like they do something a little extra that men don't. But that is a feeling or my own personal bias. So there is that. They have food here, but the food seemed more like an afterthought or a remnant of Covid where you had to have food at your brewery just to survive. We tried the Hawaiian flat bread. It was closer to frozen pizza with some extra toppings. But didn't come here to eat, and the beer was so great it over ruled any issues I might have had with the food. The BEER: 32956 Zip Code Hazt IPA 6.7% ABV... this has layers and they are all delicious Citra Surfer Hazy IPA 6.5% ABV... I really like this... clean and awesome Half Buzzed Hybrid Session IPA 5% ABV... I am not a fan of West Coast hops, I got a lot of grapefruit rind and a little dank happiness Chippy Throwdown Irish Red 5.2% ABV... I can so taste the rye and am loving how smooth it is Seeing Things ESB 5.6% ABV... easy drinking and crushable, a good English Special Bitter Slow Paddle Porter 5.2% ABV... it was a Porter Mermaid Belgian Blonde 5.6% ABV... Belgian, slightly hop forward, this is not light, it has layers of flavor and is just a tad boozy On my trip to Vero Beach I tried four breweries. Pareidolla was my first visit and I can honestly say it was the best. The beer was awesome. Next time I return it will be my first stop.

We wandered into the Village Tavern of Sebastian on a Saturday afternoon after running errands, and…read moreit instantly felt like one of those hidden gems you kick yourself for not finding sooner. We live just down the road in Vero Beach, so discovering a neighborhood tavern with this much charm practically in our backyard was a real win. We had already eaten lunch at Nini's Cuban across the parking lot, so we stopped in just for a beer. Within minutes we were pulled straight into the atmosphere. Nancy, the bartender and proprietor, is the kind of host every small tavern dreams of. Warm, funny, and completely at ease, she makes newcomers feel like long‑time regulars while keeping the whole place running smoothly. The beer selection is far better than you would expect from a cozy local spot. There is a rotating craft lineup that rivals bigger bars, along with the classics and a surprisingly solid wine list. We spent half our visit sipping and the other half laughing at the hilarious signs covering the walls and at the antics of a couple of regulars who clearly keep the place lively. We have not tried the food yet, but the vibe alone guarantees we will be back and we will be coming hungry. This is the kind of place where you settle in, meet the locals, and let the afternoon drift. For the record, our beer of choice that day was "Cougar Bait." It is as much fun to drink as it is to say!

I liked Mash Monkey in Pareidolia Florida a little north of Vero Beach. It is a small venue, but…read morehas a pool table, darts and a juke box. Upon entering, the bar is to the left and there is a sitting area with all the other amenities to the right. "Looks like a s6.tty diner turned into a s6.tty taproom." according to my friend Dave. But the beer is very good. Actually extremely good. Mash Monkey on first impression was not so inviting and definitely gave dank dive bar vibes. Fortunately the patrons and servers were just the opposite of my first impression. My friends had a flight of the beers. I didn't take notes, but I did have a small sip of some of the beers. I settled on an IPA which was very good, slighly orange peel and a little hazy. They had similar beer which had a treatment, but it was just a huge smack in the face of orange rind so I settle in on the milder version. Really liked Mash Monkey, have to come back and give the beers a good tasting. If you like craft beer, Mash Monkey will not disappoint you if you find yourself thirsty in the Vero Beach area of Florida.
