    The dining area
    Joyce S.

    It's the oldest beer brewery in historic Sanford. The place has a lot of history and they say it's haunted by several people including a boy. Makes me want to look it up. Before it was a brothel, then a fish market (go figure) and finally an Italian brewery. Their beer menu was interesting. I got a woptoberfest and my husband had a Marco lopolo which is an IPA. Interesting clientele at 1230; one guy I wondered if he had earbuds in or was he just plain crazy since he had quite a conversation going on. We determined the latter... my husband picked up 3 crowlers which were paradiso, amaretto, and popes...

    Very small brewing company and a dog friendly location which is always a plus! Service was great as we were rather quick and ordered a beer while exploring the surrounding area. My boyfriend ordered the Roman red ipa which he said was delicious and just the right amount of hops.

    This was our second brewery stop for the day and I always say don't judge a book by its cover. When we arrived and came in, I would have never thought much of this place but it was the best experience in a brewery that I've had in quite some time. It starts with the bartender Luis (hope I got his name right) he was so down to earth and reminded me of a former co-worker of my Pablo from Argentina. Soft spoken and knew about his different beers available. He helped provide options that is available, I sampled some different beers but the Scotch Ale is typically not my favorite but let me tell you this one was hands down the best one that I've ever tasted. I had two of them, damn it was good. I told Luis and he said that means a lot. The brewery's atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it an ideal spot for beer enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. The rustic yet modern decor, combined with ample seating options, creates a relaxed environment perfect for enjoying good company and great beer. The outdoor seating area adds a nice touch, providing a refreshing setting to savor your favorite brews. The staff at Wop Hops deserves a special mention for their exceptional service. Once again Luis is the best and deserves a raise for his efforts to treat everyone equal and provide exceptional service. They are not only knowledgeable about the beer offerings but also passionate about sharing their enthusiasm with patrons. To sum it up, Wop Hops Brewing Company has earned my highest recommendation. The combination of exceptional craft brews, a welcoming atmosphere, and friendly staff make it a standout destination in Sanford. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and make a stop at Wop Hops - your taste buds will thank you. This was my favorite stop for the day. Even purchased a shirt to go, I want to represent them hom in Pittsburgh, PA Five stars well-deserved!

    Wonderful, wonderful brewery! Wop saw us outside looking for seating and offered us to go inside with the baby instead where it was cooler. Very friendly and nice guy!!! Bridgette was awesome and let us try a couple beers before selecting one. I loved the marshmallow banana one, omg yummmmmy! They have a lot of beers named after staff and locals, which I think is sooooo cool! Looks like they truly value their customers and that everyone comes back for more. I needed to heat up a bottle and she went to the back and figured out how to get me hot water for my daughter! Who does that at a brewery! Just the sweetest girl ever! We cannot wait to go back to try more beers. She said that they will be making some more cool beer flavors in July and she is getting her own as well! Thank you for a wonderful experience! Every staff member we ran into was very kind and friendly. Great job!

    Favorite brewery in Sanford!! I love their creative and tasty brews. The staff are on their game and treat you like old friends when you're in there. On our last visit we went with fellow Yelper buds Scott and Nancy W. for a concert and dinner. First time dining there and it was awesome! I ordered the Mama Lina's artichoke fritters and OMG!! So good. They offer a really great selection of food to pair with their beers. When you first walk in, it seems a little small at first but there is a large dining area to the left as you walk in, and a huge outdoor patio. Wop's Hops gets my stamp of approval and I can't wait to go back!

    Wow! How? In the beer crawl evening, they Won, Hon! Woo Hoo! Wop's Hops has an awesome selection of beers from which to choose. They have full pours, half pours, and will happily let you sample if you want to see what you want before you splurge on a bigger pour. The staff was simply awesome. Friendly and talkative and it just felt like we were hanging out with long lost friends, only they had a cool house with lots of beer to drink and lots of beers being brewed for later, so when you return you can try those too. If you're in Sanford and find yourself here, pop in for a pour and give it a try.

    Second time visiting, and it was during Porchfest. Service was just okay. No military discount, despite all the military support they seem to have. Got the Fruit Cake beer to match with Dees Bros and I do not recommend :/ but I do like the concept of mixing the two beers from two breweries together! Once I mixed this beer into the one from DEES Bros, it was much better! In my previous visit, the beer was good! They have a huge variety, with all sorts of styles and flavors! Definitely a good stop for the adventurer!

    Wop's Hops Brewing Company is Sanford's first brewery that opened in 2014 in the historic district of the City of Sanford and part of the Central Florida Ale Trail. Street parking only. They have a tasting room, bar and lots of outside seating in their dog friendly beer garden. Not only do they serve bear, but they are also a family friendly restaurant. We only went there to drink, so I can't review the food. The staff and patrons were very social, and the decor could best be described as eclectic. The beer was very adventurous with some interesting/unique flavors. We are more traditionalist so it's difficult when breweries do a lot of experimenting with flavors, like key lime. Their more traditional beers were surprisingly good, but because we don't care for the experimental flavors it wouldn't be fair for me to rate those beers. Definitely worth checking

    My second visit to Wop's Hops Brewing Company.  This time I had appetizers and they were good.  The bacon and blue chips were absolutely delicious.  So were the mozzarella squares.  The BEER: Bychee Lychee... Belgian blonde ale 6.1% ABV ... didn't get the Belgian or the lychee, far from my favorite Circus Peanut Hefeweizen 4.1% ABV... This is the best beer of the bunch.  FIRE!!! Ceres... Cream Ale 5.5% ABV... the honeydew melon really comes through in this cream ale.  I loved it. Bokey... Rauchbier 6.1% ABV... this is one of my favorite beer types.  It is smokey and delicious and pretty rare to find in states.  D-lish-us Still by far my favorite brewery in Sanford Florida. Sanford in general is a great haven for craft beer and Wop's Hops is at the top of the list.

    Stopped by here to visit an old friend but I had my dog with me. This place is great! I loved the atmosphere and the people are so friendly and welcoming :) we sat indoors as well I only ordered the fish and chips from the Peruvian restaurant next door. The dogs were so happy, they also have a doggie menu and dog beer!

    We stopped in for a beer during the annual Krampus verse St. Nick Heavy Metal Wrestling Battle in…read moredowntown Sanford; yes, this really happened. I knew that Hollerbach's had a brewhouse where you can purchase everything you need to become a home brewer but I had no idea that they opened up this little taproom inside. They offer a variety of beers - Golden Lager, German Fest Beer, Irish Red Ale, Hazy IPA, Cran-Apple Sour, Double IPA, Belgian Tripel Ale, Belgian Strong Ale, and a Nitro Imperial Stout. They were also carrying several other local breweries brews, and they offer flights if you want to sample a little of everything. Pricing is on par with most other breweries in the area and you can even purchase smaller samples $3.50-$5.00 depending on the brew. I ordered the Krampus Belgian Strong IPA ($7.50) in spirit of the event going on and the guy at the counter gave me two cups half full. I asked him if he did that because of the foam and he said it was because they are 8oz servings due to the ABV percent is high. I understand that but why are you giving me two? He didn't say anything and said that would be $16.05, WTH?? Nancy was not happy with is nonchalant character all but I said, you know what I'll probably drink both anyways so no big deal, but honestly that is not an acceptable business practice and they guy just basically ignored our dissatisfaction at the situation. I admit that the beer was delicious but the employee's ownership of his mistake or ignorance to what just happened was a big turn-off. Great job on making this delicious brew but good luck keeping customers coming back with this guy running the tap and register.

Citrus City Craft was selling some special cocktails outside, and I saw the berry bourbon catching my eye. I had to go with that. Since it was an event, it just came on a plastic cup, making it easy to hold. It was a great fruity drink. I forgot what kind of berry they used, but it was pretty sweet and enjoyable. The bourbon they used was indeed high quality as the booziness lasted almost an hour. Though, thankfully I was still good enough do two rides on the mechanical bull and last for a decent account of time. And what was amazing about the drink was the cost, just 8 bucks! I would have expected to pay at least 10 dollars or more for a great quality drink for a special event, but 8 dollars was quite a steal. While I didn't go inside the restaurant/bar, I just enjoyed the outdoor entertainment at the strip mall, and tried the cocktail. Because of their excellent quality of the drink at the event, I definitely need to visit inside and try their beer selection as well in the future.

Standing only, all concrete in the hangar, one bar, lots of waiting. The bathrooms are cleanish and highly functional, no flushing issues, not disgusting, multiple women's stalls. For our concert, the venue set up a Coleman cooler of water and small free water cups by the entry, but they did not make an effort to refill the water jug, so we got quite dehydrated and unhappy halfway through. Liquid death cans and cups of ice can be purchased for about the same cost as alcohol at the bar. Nutrl was only $6 and change, I was thrilled! The sound quality was EXCEPTIONAL! Kudos and a half to Tuffy's for excellent balance and not blowing our eardrums. The light show, meh, too many dark blends, too moody and could barely see the band.

The parking situation isn't the best, there's very limited parking in the front lot of the brewery but there is a lot behind the building if it's full, and it can get full so just be prepared to walk a bit if it's busy. Inside, there's a solid amount of seating with a relaxed, casual vibe. They also have games you can play while hanging out, which makes it a great place to spend a couple hours with friends. What really stands out is the selection. They have a huge variety of beers (something for everyone), plus ciders, non-alcoholic options, and even soda. It's one of those places where everyone in your group will be able to find something they like. They don't serve food, but you're allowed to bring your own, which is a big plus. There's a wing spot just a few doors down that makes it super convenient to grab something and bring it back. They also host events throughout the week, my personal favorite is Wednesday night bingo. It's always a fun crowd and a good midweek activity. Overall, it's a great local brewery with a welcoming vibe, tons of drink options, and fun things to do. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area
