A visit to 7th Hill Taproom - Self Service Bar - Brew Review

My girlfriends cousin has wanted to go to this bar for over a year now. Every time he comes to town, he asks, "Can we go to 7th Hill Taproom? Jeff Cameron might be there." So on Saturday we thought it would be a great day to try it out.

Around 4pm, Morgan, kearce, and I were off to 7th Hill Taproom. When we pulled up the spot was a little nook inside a shopping center.

Everything was so quiet and peaceful inside. There was a pool table, a mini shuffleboard game, and about 10 tv set.

Self-Serving Beer Taps

7th Hill had 14 beers on tap as part of their self serve system, most of which were local brews from Florida. I had never used one of these cards, but here is how it works. You put any amount of money on the card and whatever you don't use gets refunded.

The Beer Menu was on the wall. It had the name of the beer with the Brewery, type of beer, ABV, and then price for 1 oz, 5oz, 10, and 16oz.

After taking a look at the menu, you go over to the taps and select the matching number with the beer you want. You place your card on the screen and begin to fill your beer and when you have enough of the beer you stop filling your glass. This was a great idea as you can taste the beer before getting a large glass.

Beer #1 - Copp 1821 (6%) - 3oz

This English IPA had a beautiful pour and a slightly citrus taste. It was not super bitter, but was delicious.

Beer #2 - Lord Hobo Boomsauce (8%) - 8oz

This Double IPA was one of the lightest Double IPA's I have ever had. It had a strong grapefruit smell and taste along with some caramel type hints. It was a solid choice and I would love to enjoy this beer again.

Beer #3 - Prairie Paradise (13%) - 3oz

This Imperial Stout with Coconut was amazing. The color was dark dark brown and the coconut smell was there right from the start. It had a taste of vanilla with almost a toffee after taste.

Beer #4 - MIA Cucumer Lemon Lime Water (5%) - 3oz

This Sparkling Alcoholic Water was the first of its kind I have ever had. It smelled like a sprite, but did not super carbonated taste. The cucumber flavor was the most dominating, which was totally fine with me. I have become a fan of cucumber water over the years. I don't think I could drink more than one of these, but it was quite tasty.

Beer # 5 - Lake Tribe Satsuma (5.5%) - 10oz

This Wheat Ale was one the best wheat ales I have ever had. My girlfriend doesn't like too many beers, but she loved the taste of this one. It was extremely easy to drink and had a slight citrus flavor. I will be drinking this one again for sure.

Overall, it was a great experience. I will definitely be going back to 7th Hill Taproom. I will be watching some college football games in the fall here! Thanks for the hospitality!
