Ooooooohhhh, we’re Halfway There! We are so excited for this year’s Halfway There: A Celebration of Beer, which marks the midpoint to Tampa Bay Beer Week. Brought to you by the Tampa Bay Beer Week (TBBW) board and the Tampa Bay Brewer’s Alliance (TBBA), this is our primary fundraiser and your attendance is the best way to help us make TBBW bigger and better each year. We invite dozens of breweries, both near and far, to share their finest offerings that best represent Tampa Bay’s beer culture.
By popular demand, this year we will bring the party across the Bay for a Pinellas celebration at The Coliseum! This historic building in the heart of St Pete is within walking distance of lots of great restaurants, bars, hotels, etc.
Also by popular demand, Halfway There will be on a Saturday this year – August 26! We suggest making a whole weekend out of it and enjoying all that downtown St. Pete has to offer. The Yankees will also be playing the Rays at 4:10 that day, so if your plans include attending that, come pregame with us at Halfway There!
