Overall Experience


Located in the vibrant Tampa Heights neighborhood, Hidden Springs Aleworks has carved out a special place in the hearts of craft beer lovers. Known for its exceptional sours and an impressive variety of other brews, this brewery is a must-visit for anyone exploring Tampa's craft beer scene.
Hidden Springs opened its doors in 2015 with a mission to create unique and flavorful beers that stand out in the competitive craft beer market. Their focus on quality and creativity has quickly made them a favorite among locals and visitors.
Hidden Springs is particularly renowned for its sours, which are absolutely phenomenal. Other good options include:
-
ZFG Pale Ale: Pale ale with Citra, Motueka and Mosaic Hops. This one of a kind beer brings aggressive hop flavors and aromas into the fold.
-
Deja Moo Milk Stout: While sours are their specialty, this milk stout is another favorite. It combines rich, creamy flavors with a smooth finish, showcasing the brewery's versatility.
-
Orange Crush: A citrusy, zesty brew that perfectly captures the essence of Florida in a glass.
Though their sours are the stars of the show, the rest of their beer lineup is pretty good too. Each beer is crafted with care and precision.
Not much, if any of an outdoor area due to their location, but the interior of Hidden Springs is both spacious and inviting. The large taproom features an industrial-chic design with high ceilings, exposed brick walls, and plenty of seating. The vibrant murals and eclectic decor add a touch of personality, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a beer. While there's no outdoor area, the indoor space more than makes up for it with its welcoming and comfortable atmosphere.
