If you have a passion for craft and import beer, then the newly opened World of Beer in Brownwood Paddock Square is the place for you! Even if you don't particularly care for beer, this impressive tavern also offers a vast selection of ciders and even craft spirits from local craft distilleries.
World of Beer is located right in the heart of Brownwood, on the corner of Brownwood Boulevard and West Torch Lake Drive. In addition to the ridiculous selection of adult beverages, they also offer a great menu of pub fare that smells and tastes fantastic. If you are looking for a place to watch a game, or relax and have a few drinks, this is a place you absolutely must check out.
The Beer
World of Beer serves beer in two different ways: on tap or by the bottle. They have over 500 bottled beers to choose from and 38 different rotating taps. Each of those taps is constantly rotating, so there is always something new to try. While they do change the beers that are on tap, they try to replace those beers with beers that are of similar styles. Therefore, there is always a wide selection of beer available.
With such an expansive selection of beer, World of Beer is able to offer an impressive number of options. They stock beers from all over the world, including Germany, Belgium, Japan, and even Kenya and Laos. They also offer hundreds of American craft beers and make it a point to feature a number of local Florida breweries.
One of the great things about having so many beers on tap is that World of Beer has the ability to make custom mixed draft beer. Beer lovers are typically introduced to this concept through the “Black & Tan,” which is when a stout is poured over top of a pale ale. However, this is only the beginning of mixing different beers together. There are endless combinations of mixing available. Most of the best tasting mixtures combine a lighter, possibly fruity beer with a darker, possible chocolate beer.
If all of this beer talk is making your head spin, that's fine too. The servers at World of Beer are all well educated in beer knowledge and are always happy to teach guests about different styles and flavors. If you are interested in learning more about beer, they offer flights of beer, which are four sample tastings of different styles. You can try a flight of local Florida beer, seasonal beers, Belgian beers, or hoppy beers. The Belgian beers will allow you to taste the unique Belgian yeast flavor, while the hoppy beers will likely feature some of the best American pale ales and IPAs.
Wine & Spirits
If you aren't interested in trying one of the many beers or ciders available, World of Beer also has an impressive collection of wine and spirits. In addition to the standard liquors available at most bars, they also feature a number of locally made spirits. These craft spirits include Florida Distillery CANE Premium Vodka, Drum Circle Siesta Key Spiced Run, and Palm Ridge Reserve Whiskey. You can pick out the local spirits by looking for the Florida symbol on the menu!
World of Beer has one of the largest selection of adult beverages available anywhere. They also have a great pub fare menu and an ultra-friendly staff that is happy to help you pick out the perfect beer for any special occasion. Whether you are a craft beer connoisseur or have never tried a real craft beer, World of Beer has something that will be right up your alley!

Don’t go there for a nice dinner.. Dining is for serious beer drinkers only — but asked for a Coors Lite & they did not have any..?? Draft beer, ginger ale & coke were all flat.. Our friends ordered bergers, which were satisfactory–but served with tater-tots (the kind out of the freezer bag–yuk!).. Our “wedge salads” arrived dredged with a mayonnaise-type dressing with NO bleu cheese dressing or crumbles in site!.. Not a good place for dinner.. Anxiously awaiting more restaurants to open in Brownwood..

How about a listing of your beers on the web. Like the “Beer Menu” you have on site.
Enjoyed lunch there. Service a bit slow. Maybe kitchen etc. will get into the routine as they get established.
