Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The Ale and the Witch leans heavily on beer: a rotating draft list of over 30 beers, ciders, and kombucha, refreshed daily and poured in full, half, or four-ounce tasters. The lineup spans local Florida craft and international labels. Wine and cocktails appear on the program but with less documentation.
- What should I order?
- Start with a taster pour to navigate the rotating tap list; local Florida breweries like No Seasons, Crooked Thumb, and 7venth Sun are featured. For a non-alcoholic option, try the Run Wild IPA or a Beech Kombucha. Wine is available by the glass, especially during happy hour.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Beer enthusiasts seeking variety will find the rotating tap list appealing, with options from local Florida breweries to international picks. The $5 happy hour makes it a budget-friendly stop for casual drinkers. Non-alcoholic drinkers have a couple of thoughtful options as well.

- This is an opportunity to sample multiple beers at a lower cost.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The daily-updated tap list with over 30 rotating beers, ciders, and kombucha, including local Florida breweries and international options, sets it apart. The availability of 4-ounce taster pours encourages exploration without commitment.
