Description
Tampa Bay Brewing Company is one of Florida’s first & premier Craft Breweries. TBBC opened at the tail end of the last "Micro-Brew" Boom. Our philosophy then and now is simple: Brew beer we love to drink! Thank goodness there were plenty of like-minded people around to support our endeavor. Today, TBBC thrives within the incredible brewing community of Tampa, Florida which was once just a two brewery town...we were lonely back then! We currently operate an Ybor Brewpub and a Production Brewery in the northern part of Tampa. We are organically growing distribution with the end goal of being a Florida only brand with a driving vision of Beer Crafted for the Florida Lifestyle. Cheers!

My favorite TBBC beer to date. Blown away by how great the beer came out. Cask pour, straight from JD barrel. Pours copper, cloudy with a thick off-white head. Aroma had plenty of whiskey notes though not overpowering. Nice aroma of vanilla was apparent.The McBrews scotch is also noticeable, hints of caramel, dark fruits. Flavor, whiskey barrel is sweet, hints of vanilla. Mouthfeel isn’t overly boozy though the barrel is right where it should be. Some chocolate elements, vanilla sweetness, caramel malts, hints of wood. Better grab some more before it runs out.

Tap @ TBBC Pours golden, some cloudiness and white head. Aroma and flavor, clove and some wheat. Some fruit; banana with some bitterness in the finish. The fruit flavor gives the beer an almost light sour feel, wheat mouthfeel in the finish. Drinkable and tasty, though a little different from usual Hefe.

tap @ TBBC. pours clear golden, thin white head. aroma and taste, pine hops, grainy mouthfeel, some lemon peel, light biter finish with hints of grains/malts adding for a well balanced Bohemian. Nice for the style, doesn’t retain the hoppy characteristics of the pilsener which is what makes me like the Bohemian style better. Dry palate

On tap at the brewpub. Pours gold with pale gold watery hues and thin bright with head. The aroma is very sweet with loads of sugar, apples, prunes, raisins and apricots. The taste has a grain malt sense mixing with apples, a mild level of banana, floral hops and a sense of wheat. Midway and to the finish bubble gum comes to the surface to join the banana, a bit of apple and some spices already in progress and heading to the after taste.
