My youngest son (23) has taken up making his own beer. His first attempt he made a "summer shandy" kind of beer, its a "citrusy" brew very similar to Leinenkugel's summer shandy, a Hefeweizen and a Belgian blond. I have to say he did pretty darn good for his first attempt even though some of the summer shandy's didn't carbonate very well in the bottle, the ones that did are pretty darn good. His Hefeweizen is the one I liked best. He's already ordered some small 2gal kegs and the various c02 accoutrements to bypass the bottling inconsistencies he experienced.

Thankfully its not near as strong as the mead he made last year, the problem with it was, it was so good and so smooth and bottled in beer bottles, one bottle of it would knock you on your ass when you drank it like a beer lol.

Schooner Wharf, Hogs Breath after which things get vague - what's the name of that topless bar on the third floor over Ricks? I am so old I remember when sunset key was called Tank Island and even had tanks on it. - things have gotten so Gucci over the years.

I do not think that place over Ricks exists anymore. It is now an extension of Ricks with live music.

Next door to Ricks in the Red Garter which I thought was just a bar, turns out it is a Strip club.

There is a strip club called Teasers near The Bull and of course on the 3rd floor over The Bull is the nude bar, IIRC it was called Garden of Eden.  Never been to any of them to be honest, not my scene.

I prefer a good live music venue, we spent the evening we were there in Willie T's which is a decent walk up Duval from Sloppy Joes and Hogs Breath. They had some guy in there who was really good, we sat and listened to him for close to 3 hours.  Fun fact, I have never been in Sloppy Joes or Hogs Breath. 

I don't know when the last time you were there was a lot has changed in the last several years.

Between Hurricane Irma in 2017 and Covid a lot of great little places closed down.   The good news is Planet Hollywood and Hard Rock Cafe also pulled stakes and left.  I greatly disliked them being there, I prefer little locally owned places. We ate lunch at Schooners years ago. We try to find places off Duval and away from the waterfront.

Sunset Key is now a resort, it is an extension of the one we stayed at. We stayed in the Opel Key Resort right on Mallory Square.
