re: purchasing beer in pensacola/perdido

If you're in Perdido, there is a Publix there with decent craft beer options. I've found week-old Jai Alai there before.

Over in Orange Beach, a little more crafty is Maggie's Bottle and Tail. They offers singles, which is nice if you just want to try something, and they also fill growlers.

In Pensacola, I like to hit up Four Winds International. They offer singles and have a lot of good food items. In the same shopping center is Richey's, which is a liquor store with a good beer selection and it worth swinging by as well.

As always, check dates on dates on hoppy stuff.
