Pretty much the only upscale nightclub located in Fort Lauderdale. It's small, so you'll rub elbows with the other patrons. It fills up later in the evenings, so it's good for dancing after dinner and a drink somewhere else nearby.

Its a bit of hike from the place, so you'll be taking a cab to get there, however, they are the most original brewery in South Florida. They craft a huge, rotating menu of homemade brews, notably: Maple Bacon Coffee Porter, Hop Gun IPA, Floridan Hefeweizen, No Crusts Peanut Butter and Jelly Ale, etc. They have a kitchen serving up good food. If you catch a rainy day this is a good destination for a few hours.
