Tampa- Of the many new breweries looking to join Florida’s Class of 2013, Coppertail Brewing of Tampa has announced hirings in several key positions and progress towards opening their doors. On Tuesday, brewery Vice President Robb Larson posted on the brewery blog:
Two new employees will officially be joining us starting in July… Casey Hughes, our brewmaster extraordinaire, will be moving down… and Dave Iwansky, our new money and finance guy, is already on his way from Virginia.
Coppertail also announced a small setback as their warehouse cleaning damaged their fire panel. For more information on their progress toward opening, see the Coppertail blog or Facebook page.
About Coppertail Brewing
Coppertail is a sea monster that lives in Tampa Bay. I know this because my 5-year old daughter told me about it. Somehow, though, it seems like the perfect name for this brewery.
Coppertail is the strange and fantastic that lurks beneath Tampa Bay. Coppertail is dreaming of the impossible. Kind of like the craft brewing industry going up against the giant mega-brewers. Or like a home-brewer putting everything on the line to start a brewery.
We believe in Coppertail.
