Breweries and beer shops near Disney

I was at some resort in Disney last December, but this post won’t be much help. I didn’t really get to explore the area nearby, but as we were leavin’ I did get to go to a Total Wine. Said TW had a decent local selection, but lots of stuff sittin’ on their shelves that is instantly gone when it hits my area. They had plenty of BCBS and the rye varient, and also had like two cases of Stone’s Xocoveza Charred from I think 2016. Lots of different Prairie stuff too.

 

I was going to suggest posting on this thread:

But it looks like it's been locked, and I can't find a new one. Perhaps @FrankenMiller will have a new one started soon...

But there's still some good information on it. Cheers!

 

The list from the thread above is all you need if you just do a little research yourself.

I'll also recommend this place: Knightly(Orange Blossom Trail location only) but check the dates on anything that needs to be fresh. Also, ask them if they have anything new because not everything is put out.

 

Total Wine always has a good selection of stouts, IPA’s are always old. Elipsis isn’t super close but like 20 mins away. Best brewery in central FL

 

I picked up some great stuff at Knightly when I was there.
But check dates on the hops!!!!!!

 

It's interesting that @SammyJaxxxx revived this thread as I found out just last night that I'm headed back to Orlando and I have to find a place for dinner. I'll do the research myself, you guys don't have to chip in unless you've got an idea, but I'm hoping to find a "beer spot" for dinner with my mother in law (70's) near to Knightly so I can make a quick stop in.

 

My beer guy goes to Orlando every year. Dump the kids off at Disney and rental car drive over to Tampa to hit Angry Chair + Cycle and back to Orlando to pick up the kids for dinner. Everyone wins.
