Beer with the Mouse

[JayMass]

I'm a big craft beer fan from Massachusetts where there seems to be really good beer on every corner. Where can I find the best craft beer in Disney right now? And I'm not looking for big heavy NEIPAs but well made Kolsch, Porter, Farmhouse, Sour, etc.!

Several places but Baseline Tap House is going to be your best bet IHMO. You can click on the menu to see what they have on tap. If you like a hefeweizen style beer be on the look out for the the Funky Budda Floridian Hefeweizen the Schöfferhofer Grapefruit Hefeweizen is also found around the parks too.

City Works in Disney Springs will have the largest selection of beers. 90+ I believe.

Baseline Taphouse in HS has west coast brews

not sure if you get cigar city beers in MA but they’re decent. Love drinking them at Wdw.

I love Reef Donkey for a lighter crushable beer. Mad Sea’d is good too for a sour. Not the greatest but light and tart.

homecomin has a few local beers which we enjoy trying. The orange crush was great.

Flower and Garden Festival booths always have some really great beers, if you are there once that starts.
Agree- Cigar City beers are good.

I found St Ambroise Apricot at Le Cellier last year and was beside myself. Ha!
Had it for the first time in Montreal last summer and cannot get it at home.

Those are some good leads! Cigar City was always my Disney go to but now they distribute in MA so it's less of a vacation beer.

We are there for Flower and Garden so I'll be on the look out for the menu. We have Homecoming planned for our first night so I'll be interested in what they have there.

Thanks for the help everybody!

Not sure if you get Bells Oberon in MA, but if your dont, make sure to pick one up at America in Epcot. A yummy and simple wheat beer that just tastes like vacation.

Baseline Tap House at HS. Although I probably shouldn't give out that advice as I'd like to keep it busy enough to continue operating but not so busy that I can't get in when I want. We usually do the beer flight and charcuterie platter.

As others mentioned, Baseline Tap House may be your best option. But, those are all West Coast brews.
If you will be there during a festival, the kiosks often have good options as well.
Big River Grill on the Boardwalk also makes their own beer there and has some nice options.
America is EPCOT also usually has multiple options.

Just remember the mouse (Mickey) won't join you for a beer. Not sure about Minnie.

If you're over near the Boardwalk, Big River Grill and Breworks has some really good microbrews. Foods really hit or miss but the beer is worth the trip.

Speaking of Canada (at Epcot!) their beer cart has a Peach IPA from Unibroue that’s pretty good. La Fin du monde as well.

I’ve seen Soft Parade from Shorts in the American pavilion as well. One of the best breweries in America in my opinion!

I'll be sure to try it out when I visit this summer.

Bells (Oberon) is another fantastic Michigan brewery so I’m sure you’ll like Shorts

 

[2xcited2sleep]

There's no firm opening date ("opening this winter") and we haven't seen the menu yet but the limited description for the new Space 220 restaurant in EPCOT indicates it might be an option.

"Upon your arrival, you will dine from a menu featuring modern American cuisine, more than 1,000 bottles of the world’s finest wines and a wide selection of craft beer."

I'm staying at the Dolphin so that will be perfect!

 

[JayMass]

We get Bell's in MA. I haven't tried the Oberon though. Maybe I'll give that a shot. I've never heard of Shorts so I'm excited to try that. I love getting beer on vacation that I can't get here in Mass. For Florida beers I really like Green Bench and Calusa. I've heard really good things about J. Wakefield too. Wonder if I can get any of that in the parks.

Swan/ Dolphin has their own craft beer- Phins and Feathers

Don't ruin my dreams!!!!!

There's a good Porter at the kiosk near Norway in Epcot. DH likes darker beers and that's one of his go-to beers.
