Beermentor’s Neighborhood is like Mr. Roger’s neighborhood … only with more beer.  I’m going to share my neighborhood stops with you.  This first group is all within walking distance.  The second group will be within 4 miles [15 minute drive or less (by cab) lol].

For instance, within 4 miles of me are: Anheuser Busch Brewing (yes…the big one).  Civil Life, Urban Chestnut, Schlafly,  Four Hands, Sixth Shift, and Alpha Brewing.  But I digress.  Let’s start with PW Pizza.

Easy walk from my place to great Pizza!  PW Pizza is located in the Centennial Malt House, once part of a large brewing/entertainment complex.  A great building worth a visit!

PW Pizza, which gets its name from its creators, Paul and Wendy, focuses on fresh seasonal ingredients prepared and served in a unique creative atmosp here.  The menu consists of pizzas, calzones, appetizers, salads, soups and desserts with a bar focusing on craft beer and wine.

While the beer list is not extensive, it is exceptional (8 on tap and about 40 in bottles).  I had (for my 22nd beer in a row if you are keeping track!) Schafly’s Tazmanian IPA or TIPA.  So smooth and nice–on tap.  The flavor and aroma of these three hops (Simcoe, Amarillo, and Centennial) really set this beer apart.  Great job by Schlafly.

I also enjoyed this Ethos IPA … brewed by Tallgrass Brewing.  Definitely a West Coast IPA … easy drinker.  Haha.

This first entry in Beermentor’s Neighborhood is also kid-friendly (see Mr. Roger’s?) .  For those who must drive, easy parking too.  Come for a visit and we’ll have some pizza!

Enjoy, Beer Mentor
