Tampa’s Cigar City Brewing won international renown from their Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout, and the beer’s annual release has been a Tampa Bay tradition dating back to before Tampa Bay Beer Week was established. With COVID subsiding and several other events announced for Tampa Bay Beer Week 2023, Cigar City Brewing took to their newsletter and social media to announce the official date for Hunahpu’s Imperial Stout Release 2023.
Coppertail Brewing Co. is celebrating their 6 year anniversary with a crowdsourced mixed 4-pack of Hop Skull IPAs.
A little over a month ago, fans were asked to vote for their favorites of the Hop Skull Series and the top three would end up being re-brewed and released as part of an assorted 4-pack. The fourth beer in the 4-pack will be the Sixth Anniversary Hop Skull Triple IPA. This hazy IPA comes in at 10.5% and features Chinook, Citra, Loral, and Bravo Hops with their house haze strain. This beer has huge notes of citrus, apricot, and pineapple with a sizable malt backbone to make it the “juiciest” IPA they have ever made. The three winners of the voting contest were Hop Skulls #3, #5, and #11, all hazy IPAs.
“It feels great when you hit those milestones and the whole team wants to get together and celebrate,” says Kent Bailey, President at Coppertail, “This is the best way we could think of to celebrate that milestone and still keep everyone involved.”
The Anniversary beers will be released on Friday, August 28th at Coppertail’s Ybor City location tasting room ONLY in a mixed 4-pack and on draft. Anniversary Hop Skull Triple IPA will also be available in a stand-alone 4-pack. Commemorative shirts and glassware are available for purchase as well as a Gift Pack containing a shirt, 2 glasses, a mixed 4-pack and 2 free beer tokens.

Press Release: On the third Saturday in September, the city of Munich will kick off its 186 th Oktoberfest celebration. In Ybor City on the same day, steins will be raised high in honor of the world’s largest beer festival. While Oktoberfest in Germany runs through October 6, it’s a one-day affair at Coppertail, so grab your lederhosen and get to gettin’—the party starts at 11 AM.
The free admission event will feature lots of German tradition—starting with, most importantly, the beer. This year’s Oktoberfest release will be flowing like the Rhine. There will also be a Dunkel, and special liter steins of select beer offerings. Commemorative steins will sell for $20 and will include an initial pour; but plan to be here early—in past steins sold out fast. For those who want to extend the party beyond September 21, Coppertail’s Oktoberfest release will be available statewide in 16-
oz. 4-pack cans.
“Oktoberfest is a wonderful annual tradition, and one we especially look forward to,” said Kent Bailey, President and co-founder of Coppertail Brewing Co. “This is our fourth Oktoberfest celebration, and with another successful year behind us, the opening of our onsite restaurant, Coppertail Kitchen and yet another delicious Oktoberfest release, there are many great reasons to celebrate like they do in Munich!”
Coppertail’s Oktoberfest will model itself on the original, with games, German music, and traditional German food. Games will include a stein hoist and a keg roll. A traditional oom-pah band will add to the festivities and Coppertail Kitchen will be offering an Oktoberfest menu. Festivities are expected to run through closing time. Prost!
