I have been in Gainesville for almost four years now and until tonight, I had never been to First Magnitude Brewery. Boy, was I missing out! It's roughly a 15 minute drive away from campus, so for us UF students used to walking to midtown or downtown, it's pretty off the grid. But that's why this place is so cool, it's a nice little get away form the usual bars that some of us practically call home. But if you're not willing to stray from your Fat Daddy or Tall Paul ways, you can check out the brewery first and hit up mid or downtown after, since the brewery is only open until 9pm. You can try out their beers by the glass or by a flight. My friend and I shared a flight, which sampled their tap beers like 72 Pale, Siren Blonde, Drift English Mild, and more! While enjoying our beers we played a nerve wrecking game of life-size Jenga. For the calmer kind, they offer life-size Checkers and Scrabble, as well as regular size board games like Trivial Pursuit. They also have live music and a food truck on site, which enhanced the chill atmosphere. The food truck varies depending on the day, but today it was Off The Griddle and it was off the chain! I highly recommend the Chicken Wrap. First Magnitude is a must check out spot in Gainesville for beer lovers and those looking to have a casual night out with great friends, great food, and great music.
Until my next adventure ✌️
