The place for beer on tap in Tally. Nice location close to campus with tons of hotel options. Really nice selection for the area, you will not find these tap offerings elsewhere!

Great place! Glass giveaway is AWESOME!

Excellent selection for the area. Very chic and upscale. Plenty of seating. Great Brewpub. The only thing I would change would be the music. Just not feeling the techno while I enjoy my Arrogant Bastard Ale.

Proof is definitely the place to go for beer geeks in Tallahassee. Great selection and beers rotate pretty regularly. The modern atmosphere is really nice and usually attracts a good crowd but weekends are packed with college students and loud music.

The Proof crew does tastings every Friday at the bar and ratebeer folks and other enthusiasts are welcome to join as long as you pony up some good large or small format bottles to share that aren’t readily available in Tallahassee. Make sure you PM jbruner before joining up for a tasting and get stuff worked out- DON’T drop in and expect to mooch off the rating crew. As for Proof itself, it is a large, dark, open space with large screen TVs for watching games so it is a sports bar of sorts but with a focus on craft beer. Large number of taps were sporting leftovers from various beer events so they were Stone and Dogfish Head tap takeovers...so hard to rate selection here though they did have Cigar City on tap before and a pretty deep bottle list that includes things like Sam Adams Utopias (also can be found at Fermentation Lounge but more expensive). Staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and a few are ratebeerians themselves so it can be quite fun having a beer bar run by ratebeerians of sorts. Cool vibe; didn’t just visit here on a random night and chill so my experience is atypical since I was visiting friends and joining a tasting group. Regardless, pretty cool that such a bar even exists that lets you have a tasting inside on your own terms. Sweet gig- a must for any beer nerds in Tallahassee and without a doubt in a safer feeling part of town.

UPDATE: Now this place has their own house beers and is a legit brewpub making this a much more interesting destination. Have tried two of their house beers and the quality is very high.

Proof is the best beer bar in Tallahassee. Thirty or so taps that are rotated regularly. They have done well to bring in newly available micros and hard to find one offs. My only complaint is the same as many others: it’s in the college area. After about ten o’clock I have to get out of there. Luckily (or unluckily) my opportunities to drink come earlier in the evening and at that time Proof is spacious and comfortable. One suggestion: open at noon on weekends. There is no place in town with good taps that opens during the day. Me and the old lady need a place to get some good brew before hitting the early bird special at the sizzler.

Lots of taps with a very respectable selection of beers on tap and in bottles. Large flat screens provide a sports bar atmosphere. The 2020 FIFA World Cup was in full swing on this day and the place was very crowded and spirited. The owner, Byron, and his wife could not have been more friendly and welcoming. I don’t visit the panhandle of Florida much, but when I do, here I will be.

Nice little bar attached to a liquor store. Met up with some local raters from Tallahassee while in town. Very nice selection of beers on tap in bottles. I believe the only downside was the lighting, its a bit dim for proper rating. Service was excellent and the help knows beer.

Proof definitely has a great beer selection at a very good price. However, the ambiance is not for adults. If you haven’t grown up since your college days and you are still walking around in flip flops at 25 then this is the place for you. If you are comfortable getting up every time you want a drink and then reaching over the planted bar patrons shuttling one beer at a time to a friend like the old college days then this is really a great place. Definitely understaffed at times.

Half lounge, half liquor store. Stopped in early on a week night. Relatively quiet, just a few locals. Bartender was less than engaging, but the price for a round of beers was a pleasant surprise; must have some stellar happy hour specials. Had the IPad with me, but the bar’s WiFi required a password that seemed to be top secret. Whatever. Went next store and grabbed a few bombers for later. Good selection, attentive staff.
