While I was at another brewery and visiting the Ybor City area, I found this brewery. It was off the beaten path. I decided to take a gander and noticed that the area was a bit shady and continue to walk, and happy I found this brewery.
I arrived and the place was lit up on a Monday. Which is rare from Pittsburgh, PA area where no breweries are open on Monday. I arrived and reviewed the different beers that they had available. I tried 4 different beers and damn, they were all very good beers, but my favorite was the smoked bock, omg it was so damn good.
Evan was the one person working and he told me a bit of brief history of the brewery. I ask all breweries as I like to learn the history. He mentioned that this brewery was unique as the owners were from Detroit, and he stated that he had a great great great grandfather who was a brewer in the 18th century, so he didn't know that it was in his roots at first. The owner was a home brewer for years.
I've been to 6 breweries in Tampa area and this one is my favorite that I've visited. All the beers were great. Evan was absolutely awesome.. The atmosphere, beer and everything was right on. I'll be traveling in the area again from Pittsburgh, PA in a week with my family, and I want them to stop and try this place out, it absolutely rocks. Best brewery in Tampa, hands down.
