The Brew Bus
Ranked as a top 5 beer city in the nation, Tampa Bay is the perfect choice for a beer excursion. What’s better is getting to enjoy a brewery tour by bus where you can drink great beer in-between stops. The Brew Bus is located in both the Tampa Bay and South Florida where you’ll get to try great Floridian breweries and the fun the bus ride offers. These are the perfect excuse to get together for a night out in Tampa or a special birthday celebration or corporate outing.
The Brew Bus in Tampa can be scheduled online by choosing a public tour date on the calendar and then enjoying the ride. The bus offers comfortable plush seating for you and a friend or your whole group. The public tours give you a chance to make new friends while the private tours are great for those that want the perfect way to celebrate the bachelorette, an anniversary, or a birthday.
Tours typically take place on Fridays – Sundays and you can choose from a sampler tour, a full pour tour, a local loop, or a First Friday Shuttle. There is even a Beach Day where you’ll get to hop onboard the bus on Sundays and enjoy complimentary beer.
