We heard about the extensive cool beer list at Arkane Aleworks, and they weren't kidding. There are…read moreboards across the walls behind the bar listing what they have. There are about a dozen bar-seats that have backs, which is more relaxing to me. The rest of the room has table seating for around 30. There's two or three 2-seat high-top tables out front. And there's even some outdoor seating for around 20 in a little triangular patio on the side. The decor is casual, with racks of oak barrels in the front, and lots of cool artwork on the walls. There's brewing equipment in the back, and some of the seating is right next to it. And they had an apparently unscheduled improv comedian out on the patio on a friday night (Jan 2026). They were great! And the audience was a good group, too :-) Beverage-wise, and the selection of beers change constantly, so look on the board for the new ones and the ones that are almost gone. We had to get a fun Fra-gee-lay golden lager from the Almost-Gone list. It's a luscious medium-light-flavor beer named for the Major Award in Jean Shepherd's Christmas Story film. We chose a sour, Astral Reign, blueberry with blood orange and some flavor or marshmallow. It was a great taste, plenty of sour balanced with grain, and sweetness smoothed out by light marshmallow. We loved that, so we also got an enormous can of that sour! And someone in our group got a decent red cabernet ... in a brewpub ... sheesh. Well, it tasted better than the house cab at many places! It was busy this Friday evening, with enough seating that we walked right in. This place is easy to get to, in the northeast corner of a strip mall on E. Bay at Starkey, and there's plenty of parking. There's a fridge next to the bar with beers to go. We love these beers! We love this brewpup-alehouse!

We were in town for work, and one of my friends wanted to try this brewery out! So glad we did! It…read morewas a fun experience with all the different beers that they make here. We even bought some to go too! The place is a casual place, they don't offer food however there is a pizza food truck in the back called "Rocky's". I had their margarita pizza and it was one of the best! There's a bar that you can sit at, high tops, or low tables. The team members gave us a taste of the beers so we could decide. The watermelon beer was really tasty. I think trying it as a flight is good since it's so sweet. The Nuclear beer with blackberry I think it was, is delicious! We also tried a habanero beer that had a nice after spice to it. I took home a carrot cake beer, watermelon beer, almond cookie beer, a green slushie beer that I will be trying soon and can't wait! We all most definitely said we will be back when in town again! If you haven't tried the place, why don't you give it a taste! Cheers!

Willard's is one of my favorite bars in all of Tampa that I happily drive out of my way to go to…read more They are a beer-only bar with 40 different rotating taps, as well as cans and a few wine options. They offer a small selection of snacks, but allow you to bring in outside food if you are looking to eat a more substantial meal. This is a small, lively place with a number of regular clientele. Bartenders are extremely friendly and personable, making an effort to remember your name and your order. They offer a loyalty punch card as well that makes finding new beers super fun. Once you drink from all 40 taps, you get a Willard's t-shirt. Can't decide what beer you want? Spin the massive wheel on the wall and it will decide for you! Such a fun/chill spot to enjoy beers with friends!

Rapp is located in an industrial area off of Brian Dairy Road. When I arrived on a Saturday at 4pm…read morethere was only one parking spot left in the lot. It seemed fairly busy inside but not packed, so there may be parking issues here. The inside looks like a warehouse but separated into three rooms, with one room containing the bar. There are only 3 bar stools at the bar so most of the service is walk up. You order your beers and then return to your table. The line could range from 1 to 8 customers at any time. They do not serve food but it seems that they have regularly scheduled food trucks. The food truck that was serving on this occasion was Mestizo. The beers are above average. They have the usual variety: IPAs, stouts, lagers, sours. Prices are normal compared to other breweries. If I were in the area, I would stop by again to try more of their beer list.

Great service and fantastic selection of beers. The sours are definitely worth trying.read more

The restaurant is located behind the German club on 66th Street, a second business in the German club parking lot! Apparently, the family that has his place is from Maine and they got a lot of success brewing beer. That's success led them to start the restaurant serving seafood from a family business in Maine. We started off with a bowl of New England clam chowder and a dozen oysters. To what are whistles we got a glass of their tap Chardonnay and a beer. My wife's Chardonnay was ridiculously good! But nothing could beat those oysters - sweet with a little bit of brine, and very fresh. For dinner we got a lobster roll - they come hot or cold, with the hot coming with melted butter. We also got the fried haddock roll.... Wow! Both were fantastic! I know we overdid it with dinner.... We even got an order of the whole belly clams. I didn't think anyone in Florida served those down here! Absolutely ridiculous . In short, we had fantastic dinner and terrific beverages. I really recommend you at least try to find the place - we almost didn't go in because of its awkward location and the fact that no cars were outside. We saw the place was open and decided to have a appetizer because the Yelp review was so strong, and I'm glad we did! I told the two people there they should park their cars nearby so patrons would see them..... Anyway, I'm going back again, but this time I'm bringing friends!

I'm so happy a spot like this exists near me…read more Food was delicious. We got a dozen oysters and the Connecticut lobster roll. I was sad they didnt have chowder so next time I'll try that and the maine lobster roll. Oysters are from Maine and they were spot on. They do an oyster special on Thursdays and Ill be back for that! Great selection of beers - they brew in house and have some other local ones. They also do flights which is great. Caylen was our server and he was great and knowledgeable. There's also ton of parking in the back. If you like good beers and maine style seafood this spot is for you!

Local brewed beer offering a good time for adults and even the kiddos which doesn't come around often. Located in Pinellas, Pee Pa's Garage has a little bit of everything-- local brewed beer, axe throwing, darts, video games, and an outdoor area for the little ones to run off some energy. There's even a permanent food truck slanging some very good bar food. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and were greeted with a small business pop up event to create your own cowboy hat. There are only a few parking spaces in front of the building but not to fret as there are plenty of additional spaces to the side in a dirt patch. We look forward to coming back!

There were plenty of vendors, and a popular lobster food truck outside. Inside, there is a long bar with plenty of taps. There's also lots of seating and a place for live music. I didn't intend on staying but the solo performer sounded good so I grabbed a bear and free cookie and sat down for a while. While I was leaving I ran into a friend from work. He and his group (couples) come here regularly and told me the lobster truck is amazing. There are also plenty of tvs to watch sports. There is also a BBQ trailer that is a regular food vendor. Also, if you want to get a bit dangerous, you can try your hand at ax throwing in the garage. All in all, this looks like a fun place for people of all ages. I would absolutely go back.
