The Baseline Tap House is the newest restaurant to open at Disney's Hollywood Studios and is effectively the replacement for the Writer's Stop:


... BaseLine Tap House sits among the vintage office buildings and warehouses that represent the glory of Grand Avenue in Downtown Los Angeles. Formerly known as the Figueroa Printing Company, this re-purposed print shop specializes in beer and wines from the Golden State of California, featuring craft ales, lagers and cider as the stars of the drink menu, along with California wines on tap and specialty cocktails that you won’t want to miss! If you can’t decide on one drink, then try one of BaseLine’s customizable beer flights, with up to 126 possible combinations of craft beers! Rounding out the drink menu, the pub also offers gourmet non-alcoholic lemonade and soda on tap.

In addition to offering delicious drinks, the pub will be serving up savory dishes such as a Bavarian Pretzel served with mustard and beer-cheese fondue dipping sauces, spiced almonds and a charcuterie board highlighting delicious California cheeses. This delectable array of small plates is sure to be the perfect way to savor the afternoon or cap off an evening out.

I was hoping to see a bit more than 9 beers on tap, although from another photo looked like they still had a couple lines available.

I was looking at a statistical report on California craft breweries, which as of July there were over 850 of them. Definitely more than we have in MN, although we are doing our best to catch up.

Looks like the Baseline though is probably limited to those California heavyweights that have national distribution. Sierra Nevada and Lagunitas are definitely good, but was hoping for even more. Still, better than the usual beer fare found round the World locations.

Agreed, I was happy to to Stone on the draft list; but otherwise all selections I can find at my local BW3's.

Looks like a nice place, although I agree that they could offer a few more brews.

Or at least have one or two taps for what bars call "guest beers" and here they could plug-in one or two Florida craft brews to fill out their taps, or at least maybe some from Big River Brewing over at the Boardwalk.
