Angry Chair Brewing Company fills the first keg

Angry Chair Brewing Company is becoming “less theoretical by the day,” says co-owner Ryan Dowdle. Dowdle is rightfully excited because now, after years of waiting, delays, and more delays, Angry Chair Brewing Company has passed the point of no return. This weekend, Angry Chair Brewing has filled its first keg.

Passing this latest mile marker indicates just how close the Seminole Heights craft brewery is to opening their doors. A solid opening date has not been set, and Dowdle has been somewhat tight-lipped on the subject. “Soon,” he replies to the many inquiries Angry Chair receives on the matter. But soon cannot come soon enough for those who have tasted beers like Three Little Birds Berliner Weiss, German Chocolate Cake Stout, or Bananas Foster.

When it opens, Angry Chair Brewing Company’s tasting room will be located at 6401 North Florida Avenue in Tampa.
