Johnny Brenda's: After quoting this Fishtown music venue/bar’s website, there’s little need for further explanation of why they’ve made our list. “We have a full range of liquor and wine at Johnny Brenda’s, but we really want to talk about beer. We are lucky in Philadelphia because we happen to live in one of the greatest beer-making regions in the country.” Cheers to that with one of the bar’s 10 tap drafts or two handpump offerings, all from breweries in the local vicinity. Swing by most nights of the week, and you’ll be able to enjoy a live show with that beer, too (1201 Frankford Ave.; 215-739-9684).
