Sure, it’s a chain. But it’s also the home of over 500 bottles and 50 rotating drafts of craft beer, making World of Beer a welcome addition to the neighborhood (and a place to add to your happy hour bar rotation).
Located in the Shops at Midtown, this Tampa-based chain also features live music, tap takeovers, a board game lending library and free wi-fi.
Although they do not serve food,World of Beer allows meals to be brought in from neighboring restaurants (many of which deliver directly to WOB). With Sakaya Kitchen, Lime, Mercadito Midtown, Five Guys, The Daily Melt, and others all within arm’s reach of the brew palace, everyone in your group can get munchies tailored to their liking. Imagine never fighting about going out for burritos or Asian-fusion ever again.
The taps open at 3 p.m., Monday, May 6 and there’s entire week’s worth of celebrations and deals planned. Here’s the entire schedule:
