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.

Can from jcwattsrugger, thank you for the trade and the new brewery! Moderate haze in a medium gold beverage with a medium sized long lasting bubbly white head. Bready caramel citrus and pine. Old school or old beer, with the hops described I choose the latter. No can dating that I can see.

Can. A light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Nice mildy tart lime, slightly floral. The vanilla makes this one of those pastry sours that I much prefer to normal sours. Doesn't have a huge amount of depth but does what it does pretty well..

Panda at home, thanks to Kenny, 17/12/23. Clear orange with a pinkish glint and nothing in the way of a head. Nose is tangy plums, herb, hedgerow, balsa wood. Taste comprises sharp pink berries, straw, light funk, lemon nip, on the turn plums. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced puckering kiss. Not bad.

Can. A very light haze on this apricot - plum colour beer, small pale peach head. Palate is light, fairly dry and has a good fine minerally crispness. Light tart fruits, never properly sour and certainly never acid. Plum if you are looking for it, fair bit of pine alongside. The oak chips are a nice touch and a add light but really pleasing amount of vanilla with a whisper of fruity bourbon, just enough to provide some contrast from the tartness. Light, semi dry and crisp finish. Nice job. My kinda sour. It ain't bone dry, it ain't burning my throat and it ain't making me eyes flicker involuntarily. But hey, don't let that stop you lot from sucking up expensive Belgian lemon juice! 🤣
