Forget about Paula Deen's place (sorry, TravelChannel) but get great food and wonderful beer at Blue Moon Brewing in Savannah, Georgia. Another place with outside seating (a must for the dog, you know, and with free dog water) and it is rare to get great, gourmet food along with really great beer. They had a limited tap selection at six (well, limited compared to their list) but they also had guest beers including Shneider-Brooklyner Hopfen Weiss. If you are a beer lover you know this beer that I gladly passed up (okay, I DID have a sample on tap just to remind me how good it is) because I want to drink local beer.
I chose the Savannah Fest beer, a German Oktoberfest style, smooth, clean rich. This one was maybe not quite as malty as a real German one, but who cared! Sipping this beer on a summer day (hot as Hades in Savannah), sitting outside, enjoy a great malty beer with equally great food. I had the stuffed shrimp: six succulent seasoned shrimp savored and satieted with smoked kielbasa - sorry I just like the sound of that.
We also tried their wacky wit, a true Belgian style wit and just perfect on a hot day.
Every beer on their sampler was so tasty including the Swamp Fox IPA, a true hop head delight.
