I’m just trying to get some good opinions through the forums as opposed to the watchlist or manually browsing local breweries or brewpub lists. So, what places have new brews on tap worth checking out? I had 7venth Sun’s cucumber gose and thought it was a nice brew for the hot summer time and crushable at the low abv.

7venth has nice new rotations.

I love going to Southern brewing and being surprised- they’ll put a World class BA Quad on draft on a Tuesday night and not tell anyone.

Cycle will do similarly, except with awesome session ipas and whatever’s in the pipeline. He also does $5 crawlers on either Mondays or Tuesdays.

CCB always has new beers and new treatments I watch for.

Southern has been killing it lately. Same with Green Bench. Lots of new stuff coming on tap there. Like Mark said, 7venth is always making new beers. TBBS’s Reef Donkey is a great APA.

I definitely need to hit up Southern and Green Bench. I’ve never been to either yet. Anything good coming out of Three Daughters? I’ve heard good things from a friend of mine.

No. Keeping draft as draft only and bottles as bottle only these days. Between the wild yeast and keg conditioning, the bottle and draft of even the same batch can vary wildly.

That philosophe sounds great! I like herbal saisons and gruits. I think 7venth just put out a new Berliner. Contemplating making the drive to check out some stuff over that way.
