78 came in during the few days of the renovation. Had no idea this was going on. I showed and saw a "pod" with 8-10 beer on tap with a "deck" on top. a huge downer at first. went on the tour and this changed my mind, immensely. not their fault I showed up at this time. The place looks like it will be better than before especially with a regular food option and more seating room. from the taps: got two great beers. On the tour got a sort of rare beer. small lot. no clue if has wifi. not sure if place is kid friendly with the new set up. |
80 Nice taproom with a good selection of beer. I've been drinking Cigar City beers for a while and finally made it to the brewery on a trip through Tampa area. Definitely worth the stop. All of the beers I tried were good and they had some that I had not tried yet. Also quite a few more unique bottled beers, though those were quite pricy. |
76 Stayed in a hotel about a 5 min walk during a weekend in the area. Solid selection at the multiple bars, like the variety of sizes and the different bottles in various firdges to go and for on site, even if the member fridge is a bit of a tease. Not sure I would want to spend an entire evening there but definitely worth a visit. |
82 A good place, and worth the visit if in the area, even though I'd had most of their main titles by the time I visited. Copped a Zhukov variant, as well as a few lesser known one brews. Service friendly enough, and everything available in flights or single 4oz pours. Some bottles and cans of bigger, or aged, variants of Zhukov or Hunahpu. Prices decent, though those bottles are very expensive. |
82 A couple of blocks down from the football stadium. A large metal building a block of the main drag. Huge tap selection, I did not have much time here so I just got one beer. I think it was $6 for a pint. I did not take the tour but it looked like a lot of people were waiting to take it. Service was great and it was packed for a Sunday. One of those breweries you have to visit if you close to the area. |
86 We visited Cigar City Brewing on 28.12.2018. This brewery was one of the first Craft beer breweries in Florida and opened in 2009. A lot of the new breweries in the Tampa area have been opened by former Cigar City employees. Cigar City has recently been acquired by a corporation, which also owns Oscar Blues. Seems Cigar City beers will be brewed also in the other locations. Hope they will keep
at least the local breweries independent. We had a great tour and saw the old and new brewhouse. Really good value for money: 8 $ - 1 hour tour, 4 beer tasting and you can keep the glas. They have 2 bars. Interior is just ok, definitely an area they can improve (seems the tap room will be rebuilt soon). We tasted the cask conditioned Maduro, an English brown Ale, which won the gold medal at Great American Beer festival in 2018 - tapped below room temperature, nothing for Ben, but excellent !! They had more than 25 beers on tap when we visited. |

84 Large darkish space, indifferent decour; thankfully not too crowded on weekday mid afternoon; worth visiting for the great beer alone; service varies from indifferent to great; despite opinions to the contrary still the best beer around here |
76 Feels like a tired old place at this point. Long tasting room, with two separate bars, the one at the back being the main one. 23 house taps when I visited, with 5 oz pours available, priced the beer—which can get pricey, anywhere from $2-6. Nonchalant and impersonable, rushes service, but decent enough. Beer is as you’d expect from these veterans - they know what they’re doing. There’s a fridge of vintage rarity bottles for onsite consumption with all sorts of goodies, but you’d need many friends and a deep wallet for it. Kind of a mandatory visit when in Tampa, but there are better breweries here at this point. |
74 A decent taphouse if a but overcrowded. Pretty efficient service despite the press. Quite a few of their own beers on tap. |
