- How busy will Perennial and Side Project's Tasting Room/Cellar be on a Saturday? - Is it okay to bring kids to either of those tasting rooms? - Best bottle shops in the area? Anywhere to get Sump or Abraxas? - Any local breweries with to-go cans or bottles that you'd recommend? I'm specifically looking for stuff I can't get in in PA. Any good pale ales in particular?
Perennial shouldn't be too busy, if it's nice the patio is large as well. You should be able to get into the Cellar or Brewery for SP. Kids are ok at both, although if you want really kid friendly Urban Chestnut is the spot. SP cellar is small and usually pretty quiet so be aware of that, the brewery is around the corner and has more space. The Wine and Cheese Shop and Craft Beer Cellar, about a mile away from each other. If you like NE style IPAs Narrow Gauge makes the best hops in STL and it's not even close (we'll see after the can release today at SP). They have crowlers togo. You'll need to trade for the Sump and Abraxas but there are plenty of locals that have it in abundance. Cheers
^^Nailed it. SP currently has 4 things to go (if you count Shared), otherwise hit up Narrow Gauge and get a few crowlers. If you go downtown I'd go to 4 Hands and see if they still have Kriek available, otherwise they'll have their regular stuff.
