Drink Like You Live Here

What makes South Florida Craft Beer so great? It is the people who relentlessly drive breweries to produce quality beer that is made probably down the street from you (if you’re lucky, right?).

Join us at Tap 42 in Fort Lauderdale Saturday (August 20, 2016) for a “Drink Like You Live Here” all day happy hour on all of their great South Florida brews. From Jupiter to Miami, Tampa to Port Everglades, they all have put South Florida on the beer map and there is no better way to honor that than getting together to drink it all!

Please join us and all of your truly local craft beer community Saturday as we celebrate being local, “Drinking Like We Live Here!” Cheers!

Tequesta Brewing Company Kicks off their 2nd Annual Hop Week!

Hop WeekFor the second year in a row, the hop masterminds of Tequesta Brewing are celebrating lupulin in all it’s glory for a week long celebration. For the Week of September 23rd, starting on Tuesday, they will be offering up a different hop-concoction each day for your enjoyment. These aren’t just regular hops but FRESH, JUICY hops which were overnighted straight from harvest. Once a year, the hop growers harvest their hops and dry most of them for use throughout the year. Only a chosen few are thrown directly into the kettle to release all of those subtle, sticky, fresh, earthy flavors and this week, you’ll get to try a whole mess of beers who are blessed with these fresh nuggets. The following is the tap list:

Tuesday, September 24:
