Description
Hidden Springs Ales Works is a craft brewery in the greater Tampa Heights neighborhood just north of down town Tampa.
We were born from the minds of Joshua Garman and Austin Good (two local guys who loved to brew), and we joined the neighborhood in September of 2015. Yellow Brick Row has become our home away from home, and we hope that it is your’s as well. So, swing by the Tasting Room, find yourself a seat, and enjoy one of our beers. There’s always room for more at the bar.

Keg at Craft Beer Junction. Opaque dark brown black beer, good tan head. Smooth and slightly viscous palate, decent fine carbonation. Rich chewy chocolate malts, abundant dark malt chocolate cream. Maple, light savoury nuts, big spicy but also rounded fruity bourbon. Comes together into a rich and frankly, almost orgasmic finish. Nice fruity bourbon linger. Fucken marvellous.
