All about craft brewing! I did a lot of homebrewing and still have all the equipment to do it, but not enough time…
I do have some good local craft breweries around me, and I bet you do too! Lets here what is available near you, and your favorite style of beer they offer!

Though I no longer drink. I most enjoyed dark beers. But a great one that sticks with me is an NPA from BitterRoot Brewing in Hamilton Montana. Single Hop. 
I also used to brew a bit. It’s fun. Ive probably got $500 in good equipment. Been a couple years myself, but hope to do a run in the next year. Be nice to get some bottled before the holidays. Sixers make great little Christmas gifts!

We have the Straub brewery down the road. They have an “eternal tap” as in “free beer”.

I like Founders Centennial. It’s good, and twenty bucks for a 15 pack of 7.2% ipa!

I don’t always drink beer, but when I do,I drink Dos Equis. Our local craft brewer/ pizza,sammich bar has something along the line of Dos Equis but lighter and fresher tasting. But now If you wanna take the edge off the day do I have something for you.

My spot as a high schooler. Place has blown up over the past 20+ years.
Meet people here every so often. Been quite a few times.
Remember being back home for their opening and would go whenever back for the first few years. I really enjoyed their beers.
I prefer vodka if I’m going to drink, but all three above have some tasty beer.

My wife graduated from Dunedin High School - 1970. She would probably get lost there now.
Cigar City Jai Alai is about the only flavor available in fashionable north Florida.
