If you're looking for bottle shops, World of Beer is still pretty great...
I found Rollin' Oats to have a more comprehensive selection with fresher bottle dates. Though its in St.Pete's, well worth checking out. Even a couple of the ABC Liquor Stores had some nice selections. Also, Mazzaro's Italian Market had some rare and at times I'm sure illegal offerings from Europe.

Smooth smoked flavor with hints of orange peel, pink peppercorn and coconut!

Dunedin Brewing still has tons of their Chronicle 8: Scotch IPA
Scottish-style India Pale Ale7.2% abv on hand which they brewed for Tampa Beer Week. Sadly Cigar City Brewing was sold out of all their offerings. I'm not sure about 7th Sun, going to be their Saturday before a jay game.

march madness party at the brother-in-law's. kegs of New Belgium Fat Tire and Founders All Day IPA. I'm mostly sticking to the latter, which is tasting mighty fine.

Jaipur. I've always felt this tastes better in bottle than cask and this does nothing to change my mind. Fresh and lovely.

Not sure what to have next. I have a bottle of 1978 Courage Russian Imperial Stout that I've been curious to crack open...but keep delaying...

Another IPA I think...

Last night was RPA at the stowaway, and we ran into the Kensington brewing sales rep and chatted with him at the bar for a while. Tonight is green flash West Coast IPA!

So far with John and Jon:
Captain Lawrence Captain's reserve dipa
Lagunitas Sucks
Ballast Point Dorado dipa
Stone old guardian oak - smoked (aroma is bacon/smoked gouda, taste is hoppy bacon) very good if you like hips and bacon.

Off to the Bent Elbow now.
