I was at the Flying Boat last week (Ocala, near Belleview) and talking to Kevin about going to the…read moreMetro Craft Beer Headquarters. Kevin said that was a good location, but recommended I look at Sandy's Shack if I wanted better prices on brew. I went over the next day. To set the stage, Ocala is - surpriingly - a great craft beer city. In fact, there are other towns close by that also have a great selection in their taprooms. You can buy beer to go in many of the taprooms, but store wise, Ocala has two really good beer shops: Sandy's and Metro. This little gem of a shop sits in the Beall's shopping center behind the Outback on Silver Spring Blvd east of downtown. It is primarily a beer and wine shop and the shop owners, Sandy and Alex, were manning the fort when I went in. I started a conversation and Sandy showed me back to the beer section. There are 5 colors full of beer and the options are well curated. Many of the best breweries in Florida, with a decent selection of great brews from other states. I also ended up buying a bottle of wine, as they had a great selection of Italian wines: Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Nabbiollo, etc. And the knowledge the owners show for both wine and beer is fantastic. How does it compare to the Metro Craft Beer Headquarters? I think Metro may have a slightly larger selection, but fewer brews you can buy by the single. Plus, I found many of the beers to be a dollar or two more expensive per can at Metro (example: $8.99 for a 450 North Slushie Sour versus Sandy's $6.99). As such, it would be prudent, economics wise, to see if you can exhaust Sandy's Shack prior to Metro, unless you have a need for a particular beer you know is more likely to be at Metro. The shop also does some free tastings and the owners are more than happy to give you an education on wine and/or beer. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend this place. The owners are great people and fun to be around. Very hard working…read morecouple who won't disappoint.
