Going to a brewery doesn’t necessarily mean going out to drink these days. Several breweries in our area are family-friendly and some even offer live entertainment! As far as trying these local brews, I would certainly look into Untappd. In some cases, this site tracks the list of brews in a facility (such as a brewery, bar or restaurant) in real-time. It is also good for tracking down a specific drink on draft or even in a store. Consumers also can rate and describe the drinks so you know in most cases what to expect. So, if you’re ready to try some new beverages, check out our list of breweries in Birmingham!
