Southern California, Hawaii, Colorado, Arizona, Florida, and more.
One of the most impressive tap houses is the Yard House. The first one opened in 1996 in Long Beach, California, and it quickly grew to what they claim is the largest selection of draft beer in the world. Predominately in Southern California, they have grown to nearly 25 locations from Hawaii to Florida and soon in Massachusetts. Each location offers many craft brews of its local area as well as many other popular brews from afar. When we say the largest selection, they mean 100-250 tap handles depending on the location. With an extensive menu
and classic rock and roll playing,
it is definitely a destination spot
worth stopping.
Though they do have some of the
domestic macro-brewery beer on
tap, don’t let that fool you that these
guys don’t mean business. The
selection at the Yard House is
impressive with the number of odd
brews and styles you may have
never heard of. There is something
here for every level of beer educated
palettes.
