    I am driving from Memphis to Little Rock tomorrow. Anywhere I should stop along the way? Any bottle shops I should hit before I leave Memphis? Never been to this part of the country before, so I'm not sure what's around. Not expecting much to be honest, but figured it would be worth a try. Thanks for any info.

    I guess my expectations were correct...

    I haven't been there in while but there's little in between Memphis and LR. In LR itself check out Diamond Bear Brewing and Vinos. The latter is a classic dive brewpub with good pizza and beer.

    In Little Rock be sure to visit Vinos Brewpub for good local beer. The Flying Saucer has 75 tap handles. Be sure to try Charlevilles Witch's Brew'mmm. The two best bottle shops in Little Rock are Springhill and Colonial.

    Homebrewed, let me know if you found anything noteworthy b/n Memphis and LR. I make this drive all the time and would love an excuse to stop along the way.

    Couple good places in Memphis. I like Young Ave Deli and Raffi's Beergarden. Flying Saucer is OK, but I like the local places

    If you're looking for some place to buy bottled craft beer in Memphis, your best bet is probably going to be Joe's Wines and Liquors. Weird TN laws prevent liquor stores from selling lower gravity beers though and it generally ruins the ability to have a decent beer selection anywhere.
