Citrus Park Brewery wins BBQ honors, plans anniversary party

Citrus Park Brewery is one of Tampa Bay’s youngest craft breweries, but they keep gaining steam and attention in their corner of Odessa. Recently, the brewery (which is located inside the Citrus Park House of Beer) earned top honors in Soutology.com’s quest to find the best barbecue in Tampa Bay. In celebration, the brewery and beer bar has extended the hours it serves barbecue- every day except Monday.

In addition, the brewery has been working on their beer–with several upcoming events to show for it.

Russian Imperial Stout Day will take place on July 17th:

We are currently brewing a big classic Russian Imperial Stout…10% +, dark chocolate, roasty goodness & plenty of hoppy bitterness. This big brew will take over 3 months to finish!

The brewery’s first anniversary will feature a collaboration beer with Tangent Brewing Company:

Last we just brewed a Collab brew with Tangent Brewing that we are really excited about. It will be our first BA beer and will be released for our breweries one year anniversary. It is a Belgian Dubbel aged with Brettanomyces in a 3 year old Hungarian oak red wine for 6 months.

The beer will finish in time for the anniversary party on November 7th.

Citrus Park Brewery is located inside the House of Beer at 8552 Gunn Highway in Odessa.

About Big Top Brewing:
For years Brewmaster Josh Wilson has been crafting great beers in Sarasota, Florida and for years his friends have been enjoying his art. It made complete sense to form Big Top Brewing Company to bring those artfully crafted beers to everyone. When we started Big Top Brewing Company, there were no craft breweries in the Sarasota area and we set out to fix that. We have a great town, with a great history, and the only thing missing was that great local beer.

We wanted to compliment Sarasota’s historical associations with The Ringling Circus, performing arts, great architecture, the best art and design schools, and world-renowned tourism. The best way we could do that was to craft beer that our home town can be proud of.
Big Top Brewing Company artistically crafts world class beers, inspired by our passion, integrity, and the history of our home town.
