The last days of a sanctuary for beer-loving apes like me!

For months there have been mumbles and grumbles that the greatest beer bar in Florida (and possibly the South East U.S.) was going to be moving. I know what you are saying "they are just moving... don't be such a baby" (I'm at stomping elephant right now). True, but Redlight Redlight's current location is so perfect that I am afraid that they wont be able to duplicate the small "hole-in-the-wall" slash neighborhood bar feel that they have established with their Winter Park location. The mere fact that you have to go up some stairs is enough to make this hidden gem something completely unique in Central Florida, where bars have to be either Miami chic (glow in the dark Miami Beach mural included) or some sort of Disney-fied (Copyright Beer Guerrilla © 2008) theme bar. From what I have heard on the grape vine, the new location will be larger, have food (please have bananas, please have bananas, please have bananas), and an even larger selection of craft and imported beer. I will be checking out their new location as soon as they move with the hope that they will have the same magic as they had in their little beer-haven hideaway in Winter Park.

Don't hate on the Irish!

Bennett is actually a lot closer to me. Looks like you'll be in the neighborhood a little more often :)
