Denver...Gorgeous!

Only a few more months until we start our journey back to Denver! We could not be more excited or more prepared for the move. After all, we have done it quite a few times. While Tampa has shown us a good time, and surprisingly a few good beers, it is time for us to part ways. Scott and I are both extremely grateful to the local Total Wine for their extensive beer selection. Our stay in Tampa would have been painful without them.

A couple other places we would like to mention are Tampa Bay Brewing Company and The Wine Exchange. Tampa Bay Brewing Company, located in Centro Ybor, has a nice selection of beers (brewed on site) as well as a great menu which gives you beer pairing suggestions. One of our favorite places to visit was The Wine Exchange in Old Hyde Park Village. While the beer selection is limited, the beers on tap are GREAT beers at a good price. In addition, they offer a nice food menu at very reasonable prices. It's always a pleasant experience dining there.Before we leave, we have made it our goal to try some of the beers at the new Cigar City Brewing. Since our arrival, we have read numerous articles about this new brewery in Tampa, but the opening continued to be pushed back. Well, finally, Cigar City Brewing is having their launch party on March 28th at the Oldsmar Tap House. I hope their beer is worth the wait!

We will finally be making our way back to Denver on July 14th, and will begin our homebrewing very soon after. Scott is extremely well-read on the process of homebrewing so hopefully the process will go smoothly.
