Beyond Beer - A Review of Cigar City Cider & Mead in Historic Ybor in Tampa, Florida

Tampa Bay is home to countless craft beverage producers creating a diverse line-up of tasty flavors that are unique to the Florida experience. Whether you’re craving a beer, a glass of wine, or even distilled spirits, the region is one that will keep any beverage connoisseur busy trying new flavors. We’re familiar with Cigar City’s beers and have visited their other brewery in Tampa. Although the main facility is the powerhouse of the company, the Cider and Mead operation in historic Ybor is much more of an experience. In this video, we enjoy a flight of some of their excellent craft beverages and showcase the beautiful and historic tasting room. We were impressed with the diverse selection of ciders and meads and would have loved to have been able to taste all the incredible flavors. They have an impressive line-up. The quality of the beverages created in this location is top notch. Smooth and rich, each one was flavorful and delightful on the palate.
