World of Beer at Reston Town CenterWorld of Beer is planning to open at Reston Town Center on May 26, says owner Evan Matz.

Construction is ongoing at 1888 Explorer St., a 4,500-square-foot space on the ground floor of The Avant at Reston Town Center.

World of Beer is a Florida-based national franchise. Metz also owns the WOB in Ballston, which opened in summer 2012. WOB has about 500 different beers that rotate through the menu, including 50 on tap, says Matz.

The restaurant will also have a full menu.

WOB will also have drink specials nightly and happy hour Monday through Friday, as well as live music Thursdays through Saturdays.

WOB is one of several ground-floor tenants in The Avant, Boston Properties’ new luxury residential building across from Reston Town Square Park. The Avant welcomed its first tenants in late 2013 and has units available for lease.

Other new tenants planned for the building are a CVS store, Barcelona Wine Bar and Bartaco Restaurant.
