Hi folks!

A collegue of mine will visit the Orlando area late this and early next week and I want to send him shopping some tasty (preferably local) beers or meads for me. Any recommendations on where to send him? Preferably some contact information to a good place so I can set up a shopping bag for him to pick up (he has no craft beer knowledge) and I found the places listed here a bit lacking in information.

Mostly looking for tasty local beers / meads or good stuff not distributed in Europe.

Cheers and thanks in advance for any help offered!
Alex

Send him to Knightly’s Orange Blossom Trail and have him talk with Solan (aka Alan). It’s not to far from the airport and he has always steered me in the right direction.

You can also check Total Wine and More in Orlando. You can set your store location and view inventory. You can even buy online and have it ready for pickup.

I second knightly as Shig suggests. It’s been a while since I’ve been there but they seem to focus on European imports a lot, so there may be many beers you can already get.

Thank you for the recommendations. Will probably make him a shopping list for Total Wine :)
