Just turned 21, but i'm already a beer lover, i'm a college student but i'm from stl and will be spending winter break there, i know about Schlafly, O'fallon and of course AB, but i know there are more breweries/brewpubs in the area, and i plan to try as many of them as i can, suggestions?
St. Louis has really improved in the last few years. Could easily do a nice tour of some if you're in the city. Urban Chestnut near SLU's campus, Six row on Forest Parkway. Civil Life south city, Square One in Lafayette Square. The two that are really getting some deserved recognition lately are Perennial in south city and Four Hands near Soulard. You can also find a lot of these in local hang outs now, too. ITap and Global Brew are fun places to really try some great stuff.
