Microbrewery... at a gas station??

There are many microbreweries to explore and so many venues to check out. But these next few blogs are going to get into an aspect of microbreweries that I never expected to exist. I would have no thought that Gas Stations would have a microbrewery section. That was a surprise to me. But a pretty nice surprise. 

Now, we all know that gas stations sell beer. But usually it is the average beer. They sell the bud-wiser, the natural light, the corona beers but when your in the mood for something out of the ordinary it is hard to come across. Now, all you have to do is stop at select gas stations and look around. The one that caught my eye was the BP Gas Station on Glades Road in Boca Raton Florida.

Gas stations have several freezers of cold beverages. This BP Gas Station now has one freezer dedicated totally to microbrewery beers. Beers which are on the shelves include but are not limited to:

• Strongbow cider
• Magic Hat
• Woodchuck cider
• Shock Top
• Sea Dog

While these beers are all speciality beers they are beers that I have incorporated in previous blogs and these are the more well known beers. While places like World Of Beers, house over 500 beers. The local gas stations don't carry as much but the ones they do are wonderful.
