Memphis breweries

Post by Tapakegaday »

Gonna be in Memphis for a few days at the end of the month to watch my cyclones play in the liberty bowl. Any good breweries or places to try while I’m down there?

Wiseacre is best brewery of the bunch IMHO. Astronaut Status is among my favorite barrel aged imperial stouts. Gotta Get Up To Get Down is a great stout as well. Tiny Bomb is a solid pils. I have a hard time recommending Ghost River/Bosco's considering how they handled laying off their employees at Bosco's when they shut down in Nashville, but they are there as well. Flaming Stone used to be a fav at Bosco's. Isle of Skye is a good scottish, while Bombay IPA is more an english style. I still have my Olde Fool mug club mug from before they closed here. There are 3-4 other smaller breweries there that I haven't tried, but I don't know a lot about them. Flying Saucer is always a good bet to try a variety of beers. Young Ave Deli is great, and has 36 taps. Hammer and Ale is nearby and has 24 taps. Celtic Crossing, Local Gastro, High Point, King's Palace, Aldo's other good options. Seek out some Yazoo while in state!
