Big Top Brewing Company - Sarasota

Great atmosphere both for the inside area and outside. They have live music on the weekends and lots of food truck options for tasty eats and snacks. Really big lawn area with tons of picnic tables for seating options with a fun and lively atmosphere. Theinside area and bar is dark with a nice cozy atmosphere. Both bars (inside and out) have nice stained wood which is nice to thefeel and creates an inviting a aesthetic. Beers are pretty good as well. I had their NE IPA which was nice and hoppy and cloudyas well as their amber/red ale which was a little heavier than expected and very carameley and malty (had it not been summerthis would be a great option). The blue berry nitro stout they had on tap was velvety, sweet, and everything you wanted from astout. I?ll be back for that by itself. I would definitely make the point of coming here sometime if you are in the area or passthrough.

Welcoming atmosphere with many beers on tap. Food truck with Fair Fare including funnel cake fries! Kids and dogs welcome. Inside and outside seating This one will be added to my ?to come back? list!

Cool little place with a chill vibe. Outdoor seating, live music, and good beer. Really cannot beat that combination. Swing in for a craft beer, get some BBQ, and enjoy the ambiance.

Huge open beer garden with band playing. Nice atmosphere, great beer selection. Parking on side of building was full but there is additional parking towards the back a little further down the side road. Jesse was very helpful answering questions. Woulddefinitely highly recommend!

What a good find! Just needed a meeting place after arriving at the bus stop from Miami. The bartender Joe (and all employees I encountered made me feel like a local (I?m from st Pete. they had every type of seating option you could want, fans outsideand a nice breeze. The beer was fantastic. I tried 4 of their beers, all very good and cold. And the magners pear cider was agood option for non-beer drinkers. They don?t have a kitchen so I thought the food options might be sketchy, but the foodoffered was delicious. Good burger and brisket, both well above average. Overall, a well earned 5/5 and a place I?d go out of myway to visit or recommend to friends in the area. Cheers!
