Florida Botanical Gardens

Reviewed By jamiel0uh - Midlothian, United States

Having grown up in south Florida, I was thrilled to see flowers, plants and gardens reminiscent of my childhood home in one location. The many and varied paths, landscapes and habitats provided an array of sights and fragrances that brought back many memories. The cactus and succulent garden was particularly noteworthy, but the gardenia hedges, bromeliads, palms, and butterfly plants were equally interesting. There is a children’s trail with six activity stations, in addition to the wedding garden, spaces for special events and private parties, classes, and a great gift shop. This is a cooperative effort by Pinellas County and the University of Florida’s extension service.

Arkane Aleworks

Arkane Aleworks is a brewery founded by Joe Scheibelhut (actual spelling) and Dan Graston, and represents the culmination of years of passion and planning. It started as two poor kids with a dream and has grown into two poor kids with a dream and a Facebook page, but the best is yet to come! Joe spent the last two years brewing at Rapp Brewing Co. During his tenure there, Joe worked his way to Head Brewer and his dedication and attention to detail aided Rapp Brewing in winning the Best Small Batch Beer and Best Small Brewer awards at the 2014 Best Florida Beer Championship. He once ate pizza out of a tree. Many of you Tampa Bay locals will also remember Dan's face from behind the bar at Rapp. After your done cringing at that memory, you'll hopefully also remember his knowledgeable and helpful service, razor wit, and some other third flattering aspect. If not, just know that these things are all true and he wants to have a beer with you. He once saw Joe eat pizza out of a tree. He's pretty sure it was, like, a year old (the pizza). Why Arkane? Arcane means "understood by few, mysterious or secret." To us, it represents the aspect of brewing that historically, and to this day, remains misunderstood and elusive. It's the intersection of vocation and art, and it's the inspiration for all the innovation and collaboration found in the Craft Beer Movement. The reason yeast was once called "God is Good." It's the core of what drives us and brings us together: the calling to solve those mysteries and uncover new flavors. To seek out new life and new civili...oh, sorry, our bad. In short, it's the motivation to spend a whole bunch of time and sweat making new beers to share with our friends. Yes, you too. Who wants a beer?

Stopped in on peep sours day and had a wonderful time. The bartenders are friendly, knowledgeable and welcome you as you step in the door. There is pub-style table seating both inside and outside. Beside the sours our friends ordered, my guy and I shared a flight of IPAs. My favorite was the Goliath - a double IPA with Citra, Galaxy & Nelson hops. Collab with magnanimous brewing. 8% ABV His fav was the RAWberry Strawberry Milkshake IPA. 6% ABV. We belong to the Arkane Aleworks Reward Club. Check out their website for the rewards! Located in a strip mall, there is free offstreet parking. The establishment is very clean and there are great things to buy to show your support.
