    If you have time to hit 1 brewery, I highly recomend Pizza Port OB. They have guest taps as well and there are other craft beer bars right in the area. Fathom is cool, but so tiny.

    Go to Fathom on Sunday,awesome view and beer,the explodo dog is the shit. Slaters 50/50 sucks,100 taps=85 oxidized beers. Bottlecraft or Krisp for bottles. Neighborhood,Monkey Paw,Toronado,Blind Lady, for beer. Alesmith,Societte,Green Flash,Ballast for breweries. GO TO Carnitas Snack Shack and have the three pork sandwich and grab a beer on their patio. You will not be disappointed. Good Luck. Drink Local.

    I randomly stumbled into the Regal Beagle few weeks back and it had some great beers on!

    I started at Fathom. Terrific recommendation. Tried the Pupil, Apprentice, and the Butcher. Loved the Apprentice and the Butcher, which is easily a top three Stout for me (and this week I've had KBS and Pt5). The Pupil is solid.

    Then I went to Bottlecraft and scored a number of great beers. Bottom photo are some of the beers I snagged from Bottlecraft. Also, tried Bottleggers Knucklesandwich- an impressive IPA!

    Many thanks for the recommendations!

    Hope to try a few others tomorrow!
