“3 Daughters created a great local gathering place in St. Petersburg, growing their craft brewing business and evolving as a restaurant and family-friendly hangout.  Bringing this popular concept to PIE is an important part of developing a welcoming and thriving airport and destination.  We are thrilled to welcome 3 Daughters to the PIE family in time for the busy summer season” said Airport Director Tom Jewsbury.

3 Daughters Brewing is one of St. Petersburg’s original craft breweries with a family-friendly reputation. The airport location is one of their first satellite locations.  3 Daughters will also have their fan-favorite “Florida Orange IPA” featured on Allegiant flights.

“Having a branded 3 Daughters bar at PIE means travelers can start their trip with one of the most popular local craft beer, cider, or seltzers. It also means they can get one last ‘taste of Florida” before they depart our region. We’re very proud to bring our family-run brewery to the airport and look forward to serving PIE travelers for many years to come” said 3 Daughters Brewing VP of Sales and Marketing Brian Horne.

TROOPER Sun and Steel is a double-fermented pilsner infused with sake to produce a crisp refreshing taste.

Iron Maiden Red and Black

Trooper Red and Black

Returning to the U.S. in June for the first time since 2018 is TROOPER Red ‘N’ Black. This 6% ABV porter presents a blend of chocolate and crystal malt that gives this full-bodied beer a roasty, caramel backbone. Robinsons Brewery’s yeast provides hints of licorice and honey to create a delicious warming brew. The beer is available in 500ml limited-edition bottles, which arrive in 12-pack branded cases resembling wooden shipping crates.

Red ‘N’ Black is named after a song on IRON MAIDEN’S 16th studio album, “The Book of Souls,” and the label was designed by IRON MAIDEN lead vocalist Bruce Dickinson in collaboration with the head brewer of Robinsons Brewery in Stockport, England.
