Florida Trip and Brew Haul!

Will be down in the St.Petersburg area as well as some time in Miami at the end of March. Grabbing a tour at Cigar City Brewing and 7th Sun as well. Suggestions on what else to look out for down there?

Though I'm not a huge fan of malt barley ales, this Salt Springs Winter Ale is certainly very delicious! Has anyone tried any of their other brews? Thoughts?
