All The Best of South Florida

What goes better with the World Series than maybe a hot dog and a little brewsky. Well, if you're looking for the bar with the best beer selection, we may have your ticket to paradise. Tonight, 7's Shireen Sandoval is checking out the Best Brews in South Florida.

(WSVN) -- Frosty, smooth, cold.

Tonight, bartender, drinks are on the house.

If you like a beer that's rich in flavor, we found the perfect selection of pure liquid gold.

"They really have a great selection of beer. They even have Jamaican beer."

Bottoms up at Our Third Pick - Bennigans near the airport.

"We are all about food and fun. Fabulous drinks and beer surrounded by the spirit of Ireland."

"Bennigans is a really cool place to come because they have a million selections of beer. you get everyone’s taste in."

A million - maybe not!

But you can choose from 60 beers - 30 on tap and 30 in bottles.

"From a lite beer to an ale."

"It's something you can enjoy and know it will be consistently good."

Irish eyes will also be smiling at the menu.

We're talking potato skins, quesadillas, and mozzarella sticks.

"The service is excellent. I really enjoy coming here."

"I feel at home."

You'll definitely feel at home at Our Second Selection - Mr. Moes in Coconut Grove.

"This is kind of a unique environment. All the wood. It has that cabin feel to it, very homey."

Mr. Moes serves up 20 on tap and 30 in bottles.

But what will really rope ‘ya are the happy hour prices twice a day.

"Regardless of imported or domestic, it's always good."

And once you've watered down with a Big Moe, step up for a little heat in the bullpen.

"We have the mechanical bull. It's a big crowd-pleaser with the younger crowd."

Another crowd-pleaser: Check out these world famous nachos.

"They're huge. We pile them high on a 16 inch plate. It's tough for several people to finish them."

"I think it's excellent. It's definitely the best in the Grove and quite possibly one of the best in Miami."

But if you're looking for The Very Best - that honor belongs to the Alehouse in Doral.

"Their beer selection is wonderful. They have everything for A to Z."

From A to Z, the alphabet of beer here includes 36 on tap and over 40 bottled.

"They have a great selection of beer. They have importers. They have domestic beer."

And they know just what compliments that frosty mug.

How about some red-hot Buffalo wings?

"Our wings are awesome."

And their prices are awesome.

If you're looking for daily drink specials, this is the place to be.

"Price is always good. You know you can't beat it."

Plus you can't beat just hanging out or playing a quick game of pool with your pals.

"It's really good to come here and you relax with your friends."

"If you're a beer drinker, this is always a good place to stop by."

Next round's on me.

Next week, it's the final installment of the Best of South Florida.

We're going to show you the Area's Top Wine Selection.
