The editorial take
World of Beer's Downtown outpost leans on a massive beer list spanning global styles and Florida locals, anchored by the exclusive Secret Llama line. Cocktails run from $8 house pours to $16 signatures like the Maple Old Fashioned, while a small wine selection and thoughtful mocktails round out the program. It's a beer-first destination with enough cocktail competence to satisfy a mixed group.
- What should I order?
- Start with a beer flight to navigate the extensive list, then a Secret Llama Blueberry Wheat Ale for something exclusive. For cocktails, the Maple Old Fashioned with WhistlePig rye shows ambition; the $10 House Margarita with Espolon is a solid value. Brunch brings the Beermosa and Michelada.
