New location. Has nice seating outside as well as inside. There house beers are pretty solid. Food is great. Have memorabilia for sale. A lot of shops surround this location. Located in the Heart of Ybor City. You can also take a trolly for a spin as well.

Maybe we happened to pick a bad night to go (Thursday) and the bad service was a fluke or maybe this is becoming an issue. When we arrived we waited several minutes to be seated despite ample staff just standing around talking. Once seated the waitress knew almost nothing about the menu or the beers in it. On top of that I was double charged for an item I ordered. It was cleared up and a manager came to the table so I will be back for sure. I had really good food and very decent beer.

Pretty good atmosphere inside as well as a large area outside. Tried a handful of their beers and most were decent, none was bad and the Elephant Foot rocked when I had it. They also had a cask ale which was amazing too. Got a cheeseburger which was great. Service was decent but not amazing. Definitely worth checking out.

Located in the heart of Ybor City. Address IS NOT 1812 N. 15th. It is 1600 East 8th, roughly 1 block from the address stated on the site. Has both a spacious indoor space and an outdoor bar with patio. Both are very cool. Beer is very good to excellent. Service outstanding. Bartender Russell is a great guy. Don’t miss this place when you are in town.

Finally made it over to the new location. Much bigger, but loses a lot of the charm of the old place. Still very nice and clean. Service was fast and friendly. Being my first time there, I had to go for the sampler. 9 beers plus their fantastic root beer. I had Sheppard’s Pie which had a gravy made with their stout. Very good. Food is a little pricey but overall well worth the trip. I can’t wait to try one of their cask conditioned brews.

They have a nice beer garden extension from the typical interior of a brew pub. Service was sub par the night I visited. Not sure exactly what was going on. Very slow and not so attentive. The beer is ok. They have a reasonable number of styles. Being so slow I only tried one (cask conditioned IPA) which was very good before leaving for new world brewery. The food was average brewpub fare. The beer cheese dip was pretty good though. I suppose I would have a higher opinion had the service been better.

Lunch 2/24 before "FBG." Nice new location in the heart of Ybor City. Nice wood decor with both indoor and outdoor dining. I had the Sourdough Melt and the Beer Cheese Soup which both were excellent as well as the prompt service. I counted 9 taps plus 1 cask conditioned. A must visit!

A nice brewpub with a pretty good selection, although they only had 7 of their beers on tap when I was there, but those included a barleywine and imperial stout, so I was happy. They were out of a few of the food items on the menu, but otherwise, the food seemed pretty decent as did the service. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.

Finally got around to coming here on New Year’s Eve 2006. The beer is nice and fresh, with a generous sampler. Guest taps are few but impressive. Food comes in huge portions and is very creative and tasty. A definite must-stop; I’ll be back often. Big plus is the outdoor bar, where you can get a beer and enjoy the fresh air sunshine of Tampa at the same time.

Usually low lighting, even during the day. Nice, comfortable atmosphere. Lots of wood decor. Depending upon the season, the beers are either good or excellent. Food pulls up just short of great and the staff is friendly and reasonably knowledgeable.
