Late Start Brewing of Tampa Bay has announced that the former contract and formerly housed-in-Pour-House-Tampa brewery has found their forever home in one of Tampa’s up-and-coming areas near Perry Harvey Park, where the Florida Brewers Guild Fest 2022 and Brewers Ball 2022 were both held.
From Late Start Brewery
In celebration of a special week here in Tampa, we have some cool news we’d like to share with you. While it’s been mostly quiet on the Late Start front, we are happy to announce we have found our new home at 1018 E Cass St in Downtown Tampa. We are officially under construction as Tampa’s first Downtown brewery in nearly 60 years.
We can’t wait to share a pint and some friendships at the new spot, meanwhile keep an eye out for Late Start at bars and package stores around Florida.
Cheers!
Congratulations to the team at Late Start Brewing in finding their home location.
About Late Start Brewing
Late Start Brewing was born in 2012 within the confines of a two-car garage in Tampa. Within a few batches of homebrewing, a hobby turned to an obsession. Brewing as much as they could, too often starting late after sunset, finishing up in the wee hours of the morning (This is where our name comes from 😉 . They started serving their beer around Tampa in early 2013 exclusively at beer fests and special events. Around this time Tyler Sankey and Jordan Copher met brewer Nick Streeter when they both landed jobs at Cigar City Brewing.
Streeter helped them find their feet as they transitioned from homebrewing to pro-brewing. They learned and grew as brewers together at CCB, they recognized Nick’s qualities and had found their third team member, and together hit the local beer fest scene. They moved to separate breweries to expand their experience all the while peddling their creations around town. Tyler to Coppertail Brewing then Yuengling, Nick to Head Brewer of both Carrollwood Brewing and 7venth Sun Brewery, and currently at Rock Brothers Brewing, and Jordan went to brew at Angry Chair Brewing, currently production manager.
