"Anglesea Aleworks is a homegrown microbrewery that makes serious beers but doesn’t take itself too seriously. The casual, come-as-you-are vibe is nice for when you’re with a group with a range of tastes—someone can get a craft pilsner, someone can get a citrus-forward hazy IPA, and someone else can try one of their hard birch beers or mango hard seltzers, either straight up or in slushy form. But everyone should try a Doo Whip—a fruity wheat beer mixed with pineapple and vanilla. The tasting room doesn’t serve its own food but will let you BYO, so make sure to pick up sustenance before you go—El Alebrije makes a stellar takeout burrito, or order a pizza from Poppi’s and they’ll deliver it to your bar stool." - regan stephens, candis mclean, sydney mcelwee
