Southern Lights Brewing

Great neighborhood brewery with games, lots of indoor/outdoor seating and regular food trucks and events. The bartender helped me pick a great sour. Check their instagram for happenings!

I love doing brewery tourism when I am in an area and greatful I found this place. I won't say they have the best beer in the area, but it is solid. Have been three times now and love every visit.The beertenders are on point and understand their beer. Friendly service and you see groups of regulars every time. Has a bit of a neighborhood bar type of vibe. Game night on Wednesdays. Live music multiple nights a week.Fairly decent across a multitude of styles. I appreciated they did a couple of nice Belgian beers, although the IPAs were also solid. Will return when visiting mom, as I really enjoyed spending time here.

Great spot with well priced beers. Games to play with the kids and they often have live music. A real gem in Clearwater

We stopped here on our way from Orlando to AMI and had the best time!We have 3 kids and there were tons of things for them to do while we enjoyed a beer. They also give the kids juice boxes when they come in so that was so nice!The beer was good, not my absolute favorite IPAs but we still took 6b crowlers to go for our trip and they were a hit!I would definitely make a stop here if you are in the area!

Perfect spot for a delish DIPA , Pilsner and Stout. Friendly environment. Bartender was super nice and on point. High recommend to check this place. You will enjoy it

Great list of beers - very well balanced take on a wide variety of beers from IPAs to stouts to Saison to Belgian style triples. Great bartenders and nice spread out space with arcade games

With tons of new microbreweries popping up lately in Tampa Bay, we decided to check out one of the newer ones in the area called Southern Lights Brewing. Here are my ratings based on different criteria:Quality of food: No food is served here. I didn't see anybody eating inside so I can't tell if you're allowed to bring food in from outside or not. When it comes to beer though, the three I had were all top notch. I had the Chocolate Nut, Dunkel, and Tripel. Each of the beers hit the mark on their individual styles.Decor: okay. They had a hodge-podge of stuff on the wall from a picture showing Barbie and Ken to various beach signs. There are couple of dart boards on the wall and random stuff hanging from the ceiling.Cleanliness: good. No complaints. The tables were kept clean.Service: fast and friendly. The only way to get a beer is to go to the bar. There was just 1 employee (the bartender) present when we went.Price: typical for microbreweries. The price of the beer was either $5 or $6 depending on the gravity. This is typically what I have seen for similar breweries.When it comes to beer I would give them a 9/10. However, what's lacking is any kind of fun activities or atmosphere like live music. The location is a little bit hidden and out of the way in a shopping mall. This is a place that you'll likely go to if you're driving from work to home and want a good beer and that's about it. I can't wait to come back if they ever bring live music or games like bean bags or trivia nights.

Yet another micro brewery around town! This place is a hidden gem on gulf to bay by Jets Pizza (they dont have food menu so if you need some snacks, get some pizzanext door!)Peoplr are friendly an the decors are pretty cool (see pic). I'm not the usual beer lover but of trying 6 different kind s, I actually found one i like. Thanks to Yelp and the brewery for hosting Beer Week!

Hidden but great little brewery in Clearwater. (To the left of Skyline Chili and Jet's Pizza. I like the layout and simple look inside. They have two dart machines and lots of sitting room with a spacious bar. 9 different beers to choose from and we sampled 5. I don't normally drink craft beer but I would come back and definitely have the Grain Man. Beer reviews:Grain man-smooth Sticks of fire- did not like, very bitterDrunkelstiltskin- darkness threw me off but it's light and tasty The solution- a little hard to drink, wasn't too fond of it, slightly better than sticks of fire. Not positive how to describe it, bitter as well. Chocolate nut taps porter- on this smoother side and slight hint of chocolate, I feel like it's a more feminine beer that I would drink but I think "Grain Man" still tops it

Awesome staff and great beer. Perfect combination. Easy to park, too. It's a clean establishment with a good vibe
