Great place for good beer and a relaxing atmosphere. I went back again the next evening. Friendly bar tenders. Check it out. I think you'll be impressed.

Arrived an hour after opening on a Tuesday so very quiet. Greeted warmly and given advice on the current selections. Went with 3 flights to sample almost all. Cool bar and flight trays. Reasonable prices, enough choices to make most happy.
Have trivia night and sometimes music on the weekends.
A little disappointed that they were out of some of their most popular beers due to an expansion related production glitch but had other local substitutes available to fill in.
Great local suggestions.
An absolute recommend.
Will return

Hidden gem in north pinellas county. It’s in an industrial park so don’t expect amazing scenery, but if you appreciate high-quality beer, this is among the best in the region.

They don’t try to jump on every trend and you’re not going to find a million hazy IPAs or fruited sours here—they keep a pretty stable tap list without too much variation, but every single beer is executed with precision. The Belgian styles and IPAs are especially impressive, and the IPAs tend to be very well balanced; lots of flavor but they finish mostly pretty dry, with the appropriate bitterness.

Dog friendly, food truck on weekends, nice people and staff. Seriously, support them so they can keep brewing and serving amazing beer!

Infckncredible!

The game room is nostalgic…. Tekken, Simpsons, Galaga…board games…darts…. They even have Han Solo in the lobby frozen in Plastic! My reason for visiting now is an irreplaceable venture called “Blurry Pictures”. Ask them to tell you the story about the brew as it’s heart warming. Go here…. You will not be disappointed

I reviewed this brewery four years ago and it’s time to update that review. I recently attended a networking event here and was very impressed by the taproom and brewery. The beer was delicious (I had the Double Tall Boy) but what was really impressive was the cleanliness. No exaggeration, it is the cleanest taproom and brewery I’ve ever been in. It even smelled good (which is rare for a brewery). The bartenders were busy, speedy and friendly. It’s a great space with lots of TVs and stuff to do. I will definitely be back and am happy to be able to recommend it now.

The guy with curly long dark hair refused to let us taste any beer. He immediately asked us to buy a flight and was very stand off-ish. We ordered one beer and left no tip in which he rudely responded thanks very much.

I'm not sure if he had a bad day but unfortunately it made our experience a 0/10

This place is awesome! Beer selection is great, the bar is wonderfully crafted and the giant space is ever evolving. They host some pretty crazy events and the owners are super chill and treat the customers like gold. Highly recommended.

We love this place. We lived very near by until recently. We went to a brewery close to our new home in Largo last night and it was terrible. We decided to come to Southern Lights for old times sake and had a blast. Beer is amazing, wine is great and the atmosphere is fun, clean and welcoming. With so many breweries in the area, this one needs to be on your list, it's one of the best.

Local wateringhole found! This is off the beaten path, with incredible brews and atmosphere. Free games to use, arcade to play in, outdoor space and live music! The collab for charcuterie boards is just a great addition. Flights of beer are the way to go! Definitely taste the love of the craft in every beer. And come on, where else can you get your pic with Han Solo?

My wife and I visit all the local breweries in the Clearwater, Dunedin and Palm Harbor area for a great beverage and stopped by this Brewery for the first time today.
It was fantastic!
The beers were terrific and the business was outstanding.
It was the cleanest of any we have visited.
It has a bunch of TV’s to watch your favorite sports team along with many activities with board games along with pinball, darts and arcade games.
The outside is dog friendly along with dog friendly beds.
You are missing out if you do not visit the Brewery!
We will be back again for sure!

Interesting location in an industrial park. However, great place for games and good beer. No food but can order charcuterie packs which totally works.

First time for me, but not the last. Fantastic beers and a wide variety to choose from. I had the Harry Poerter Chocolate Porter and enjoyed it very much. My friends tried their Scarlet Witch Red Ale and Grain Man Hefeweizen and raved about them. You're certain to find something you'll like. I've added a photo of their current tap list so you have an idea what to expect. Other pluses.friendly, helpful staff, video and pinball games, outdoor patio, and a video DJ playing MTV hits from the 80s. Great place!
