Southern Brewing & Winemaking

Part homebrew shop, part brewery, part backyard hangout!I came in to look at some yeast. The homebrew shop section was closed but the bartender was still kind enough to let me have a look around. (I was looking for some thiolized yeast, they didn't have any, sadly)We stayed and drank some brews anyway. I had a pilsner that was pretty solid.The outdoor area with firepits was delightful.

I came here today after not having been here for many years. I used to come here for beer brewing supplies. They have completely changed the decor. Today the bar is much larger and the beer making supply section is a little smaller. We liked the atmosphere and the beer was amazing. I don't make beer anymore but if you do this is a great place to buy supplies. The staff were helpful and quickly we had a great beer in our hands and we're enjoying our drinks.

These guys are great. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Was able to help me diagnose my issue with the kegerator and get it all fixed.

So fun, I'm bad at picking beer and the bartender was fantastic helping me choose! I even got to take small samples, only needed a sip. Trivia was fun too especially with the dogs that the customers brought. Mexican food truck and crab truck were great options to eat from. Outdoor seating was nice. Bring your bug spray during the summer months. Will come back definitely.

This was our second time here and we really enjoyed it here.They have a great variety of beers. We sat at the bar and had a couple of beers each. While there we chatted with the bartender, who I believe is involved in the brewing of the beers. He was very knowledgeable about the beers and how they were made. He gave us a few different samples of some beers and we were blown away by the blonde stout. One of the beers my wife had was a plantain beer, holy crap this beer was so good, you gotta at least give it a try if they have it on tap. We enjoyed the beers and the ambiance.If you are a craft beer brewery, it is worth noting they have a homebrew supply shop right in the taproom.We will be back!

This is a quaint, smaller size brewery, but it had quite a number of drafts to choose from. And the customer service there was excellent.

Pictures posted on here are pretty flattering, so I was expecting something a bit nicer. It's pretty run down and everything probably came from a thrift store. The inside smells of dust and is really dark. Could all use some updating. The beers we tasted were fine. The strawberry Berliner was the best one. The blueberry melomal was okay. Seems like a nice spot for neighborhood folk to hang out. You can get food from a local Mexican restaurant, which is nice!Service at the bar was nice enough. We are just visiting from out of town, so we won't be back.

Southern Brewing is one of my favorite breweries in Tampa. Located just minutes from 275, this cool hangout is right off MLK, and has ample private parking. Southern is part bar, part brewery and part store. Everything you need to home-brew beer, wine, mead, kombucha, and hard cider can be found there, and friendly staff will answer all of your brewing questions. They also sell SB shirts. They don't serve food but they often host various local food trucks.The spacious bar typically plays chill music and has a couple of tv's on during the day. Saturdays are my favorite because they offer delicious wine slushies for $5, and those puppies are strong!Their outdoor patio is a lush oasis with fire pits and fans. Seems to attract all kinds of friendly people and cute doggies. There's a lack of hipster pretension from guests and staff alike, which is refreshing for a brewery in Tampa.

We've been here several times and have purchased our brew kits here. Always great service and beer. Great outdoor patio area.

Everything our favorite bar tender Michael aways takes excellent care of us!!! Great to enjoy Rene's Mexican food while drinking our favorite beverage Bublé aka Bubbly
