Draft beer not your thing? Then check out the Lodge for all their delicious bottle beers.

If the draft beers just are not cutting if for you and you'd rather a bottle beer... well the Lodge has only a select few bottle beers but the few they have are full of flavor and taste and are great beers. Here are just a few: 

• Magic Hat Circus Boy  is a year round beer that an American style. There is amazing wheat flavor in the beer that is unfiltered and is so refreshing.
• Avery New World Porter is a traditional black porter with a twist. It has a taste of chocolate and caramel and is pretty strong at 6.7% alcohol volume. 
• Old Speckled Hen is a beer with taste and history. It is a smooth in flavor and each to drink. The flavors are toffee and malt combination with a touch of bitterness. It is the perfect beer for a night with friends.

If you're having a night where beer is just not your taste, then enjoy two of the nice wines that the Lodge carries. 

• Black Swan Cabernet Sauvignon is a dark berry wine that has taste of mint and chocolate, with a 13.59% alcohol volume this is a great wine to enjoy. 
• Black Swan Chardonnay is a great wine to sit back and enjoy. Black Swan has a fruit taste that is just so relaxing. A medium wine with peach, citrus, melon and compliments of vanilla to add to the flowing. This wine is strong in alcohol volume at 13.07%. But has such a great taste it leaves you wanting more. 

Whatever the taste might be that you're looking for, The Lodge is full of surprises. The selection might be limited yet, the variety that is available ranges in flavor, consistency, and alcohol percentage. 

Enjoy a nice cold on at the Lodge of Mizner Park

The Lodge is home to nice, ice cold beer. They are an establishment that has 24 beers on tap, which are always on rotation. Their drafts range on so many different levels. Some of their beers include:

• Magic Hat # 9 is exactly what its name describes... magic. This beer will have you guessing and will leave you in mystery. While the taste is a bit dry, it is refreshing and not the same as a pale ale. This is one of those beers you need to experience for yourself
• Great Divide Titan IPA is considered to be a bitter pale ale beer which interestingly enough is an India beer. (This I have not come across much over my time of research.) Titan IPA 6.8% alcohol and balanced with a bitterness and crisp hop taste.
• Sea Dog Blue Paw is an interesting name for a beer. There are many Sea Dog beers but I want to concentrate on the blue paw.  This beer is a 4.6% alcohol volume beer and has a fruit flavor taste. The fruit taste comes from wild blueberries and is a great thirst quencher. 

• Shiner Bock a deep amber color but full of flavor and body. This beer doesn't have a bitter taste but instead just the opposite, a smooth taste. With a 4.4 % alcohol level it is a beer to keep you coming back for more.  
• Lost Coast 8-ball oatmeal stout is an award winning beer. This beer is full of great flavor a creamy smooth taste that is always a surprise. It is a dark beer that has the look of chocolate. 

The Lodge has so many more beers on their list. The nice thing compared to World Of Beers is that trying all their beers is possible. They have a great selection and the staff is so helpful in letting you taste beers and find the one that bits your taste buds the best. 


     Another aspect of the Lodge is "Beer to Go" such an interesting idea and a great way to make money. Who wouldn't want to take home their favorite beers and be able to enjoy them when they wanted? I know I would love to have that. The Lodge refers to Beer to Go as Growlers.


Growlers beer is a 64 ounce Amber Colored glass growler that can be filled up time and time again. There are a great variety of drafts available that can be filled up to enjoy from the comfort of your own home.

The Lodge Beer and Grill

The Lodge Beer and Grill is the next of my stops. This place is amazing! There are so many different types of beers, there is a great atmosphere. And the location is awesome. Right in the heart of Mizner Park, The Lodge offers a great indoor seating area as well as a great back porch on a nice Florida day. The Lodge is a fairly new location, having only been open for two years. 

The Lodge is small on the inside but wow is there a large selection of beer on draft and a variety of bottle beers too. The Lodge specializes in unique beers like many of the spots we have taken so far. There are great new beers to try that I have yet to mention and great food too.

When it comes to the Lodge, it is a great spot to meet up with friends, go on for a date and even just a great spot to go after a long day at work. The atmosphere is mellow and low key but a place that you can relax and actually have a conversation. The Lodge attracts people of all age and various groups as well. Its cozy feel is a sure win when looking for a night out. 

Brick House... Hit or Miss?

Brick House is full of wonders. There are so many different beer options that you have to go back more than one time in order to get the full experience. The location is great and easy to find. And the beer... Well what is there to say but it is great for the beer lovers. 


The general review of Brick House is that the service is great, the beer is great but the atmosphere was like a "man cave" it had loud music and lots of sports being played on the televisions and loud, loud music. I didn't bad reviews on and even critics were happy with the job well done. 


The overall consensus was that Brick House was a place to check out. A place that had a great atmosphere and there is so much to offer. The food is amazing and will always cater to  your hunger cravings. The beer is nice and cold and the service is great. 


This is defiantly a hit when it comes to location, food, and drinks... but that is in my opinion. I would say check it our for yourself and get back to me with your feed back. 


We still have a few more places to hit up on our "pub crawl" around Broward and Palm Beach County. But don't worry this is more beer to come, more food to try and more places for you and your friends to check out. 

Beer with a twist! just take Orange Juice and Guinness and Stop in to Brick House Tavern.

Another aspect of Brick House which I found to be interesting was the fact that they sell 40's. Yes they sell beer by 40 ounce bottles. That is a lot of beer for a tavern to sell. Brick House actually sells more than one kind of beer in 40's. They sell all American Lagers:

• MGD
• Miller High Life
• Miller Light
• Budweiser
• Bud Light

According to Urban Dictionary, 40 ounce beers are of low quality and are cheap beers. Many bottles are $2 to $3 and are usually drank by teenagers and gangsters. 40's are an easy and cheap way for many to get drunk. 

Another exciting factor that Brick House has is "Beer With a Kick." This is an interesting section on the menu. These beers all have a hint of alcohol added to them. 

For instance, 

• Black and Tan is Bass and Guinness. 
• Dirty Blonde is Stella and Guinness. 
• Liverpool Kiss is Guinness and Chambord.
• Bee Sting is Guinness and OJ

Cask Beer is another interesting aspect. It is beer which is hand pulled and comes in Pints, 20 oz, 1/2 bongs, or Full bongs. The beer they sell is a Pal Ale from Warrenville, Il. This beer has a soft flavor and is hand crafted

If beer is not hitting the spot for you while at Brick House its okay, they have a great selection of wines by the glass for their customers to sit back and enjoy. Wines ranging from reds to whites and even champagne. 

This is a great twist to add to a tavern. The variety is always adding new experiences for the customers to enjoy. 

Unique beer for a unique taste and a unique presentation... Brick house has all three

Unique beer for a unique taste. Unique beer is an eye catcher on the Brick House menu.


While the Brick House import selection might not be the largest selection they do have a great variety of beers: Their beers range from German, stout, brown ale, tripel ale, bitter ale, irish dry stout, czech pilsner, trappist ale, and pale lager. There are nine categories and 15 imported beers total. 


Many of the beers are new names to even here so I am going to highlight just a few of the 15 beers which are available in Unique Imports. 

Brown Ale  

• Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale is a mild beer that has a hazelnut taste. The brewers of this beer use one of the oldest English styles from the 16th century.

Tripel Ale

•  Tripel Karmeliet is a belgian beer that is unique at heart. This beer has the taste of wheat and creamy oats with a hint of lemon. The smell is a hint of vanilla with a mixture of citrus.

Bitter Ale 

• Fuller's ESB is a beer based out of London. This beer has won many awards for its bitter taste. Fuller was first brewed in 1971 and is in the range of a 5.9% alcohol volume. 

These are just a few of the unique imports that are available at Brick House.

If the unique imports are not your style then Brick House does offer a selection of imports. In the imports section there are five categories but 14 different beers. These beers range from Corona to Amstel Light to Red Stripe... names which are more known to the average beer drinker. 

American Beer for the American Lover.. take a seat at Brick House Tavern

Brick House really does touch upon several areas for the beer lover. We have already explored the import beers which are offered and we have already figured out what a micro keg is. We have a few more angles to reach when exploring what Brick House has to offer and exploring what the different beers there are available and the difference in types. 

American beer is a sure win for many beer drinkers. The next time that you are at a bar, look around and see the number of people drinking American beer. Think about the nights you go to bars and it's ladies night at the bar or free drinks 'till midnight. Changes are the beer being given out is American. 

Brick House has a very very small selection of American Can beer. When I say small I mean they only sell two beers. Both beers are American Lager and they sell, Blue Ribbion and Schiltz.

But, when we look at the American Bottle section of the menu we are given many more options. There are nine categories and 19 different beers. All beers that the average beer drinker has heard at one point or another. Beer such as Sam Adams, Budweiser, and Michelob Ultra.

When drinking a beer there are so many aspects to evaluate. People look at drinking beer from a can or a bottle and the difference between bottle/can beer or draft beer. In the society we live in and from my own experiences drinking from a can is not the classiest. Can beer is the cheaper of the beer and is ideally the cost effective way to go. When you look at beer in a bottle you are paying a little bit more but the taste actually does show a difference. 

According to eHow there are many factors when deciding which beer to choose. When you order a draft beer there is the change of getting beer that is not the cleanest. Many restaurants and bars don't clean the lines that good on the beer tap so chances are bacteria might be found in the beer. Yet, when drinking from a bottle the beer can become damaged from the ultraviolet lighting.
