Weekend Highlights

Saturday afternoon the hubs and I met up with our friends and headed to South Beach with our bicycles in tow to attend the 2nd annual Beer Snob Bicycle Pub Crawl. The event was hosted by the Miami Bike Scene and we couldn’t have had a better time! The weather held up beautifully and although we did not make it in time for the first two bars, we were able to hustle and get there early for the last two, which really paid off. We visited The Filling Station in Downtown as well as an old favorite, the Democratic Republic of Beer. Although the Filling Station had a limited menu, we really enjoyed what they provided, especially the pulled pork sandwich and their amazing selection of beer (Blue Point Toasted Lager was the definitive winner). Unfortunately, it seems like it is closed on weekends which really is a shame because I could have seen the hubs and I doing many a date night there. The DRB seemed to have also upped their game as their food was a lot better this time around, especially their calamari.

We later drove back to the beach, where we relaxed and had a few more beers at our favorite hidden gem, Abraxas Lounge and then finished the night out with entirely too much food at Big Pink. All in all, it was a fantastic night out with friends.

I was really impressed with the event – everyone part of the crawl was so friendly and caring despite the long lines and packed venues. It definitely made me want to keep abreast of future Miami Bike Scene happenings and similar events in South Florida. It’s always nice to do something different than the usual Miami nighttime activities. Plus, I love showing my adorable bike off in public ;)

Have a happy Monday, everyone!
