At Grand Central Brewhouse, our diverse lineup of craft beers is thoughtfully curated to cater to every palate. Whether you’re in the mood for something light and refreshing, rich and malty, or bold and hoppy, our taproom has the perfect brew for you.
Experience the refreshing taste of our light and crisp craft beers, perfect for those who prefer subtle flavors. These beers offer a clean finish and pair wonderfully with a sunny afternoon at Grand Central Brewhouse.
Peninsular is a German-style Pilsner brewed with German grown barley and three different Germanhops: Tettnanger, Mittlefüh and Hersbrucker. It’s crisp, refreshing and uncomplicated, each sip naturally leading to the next. We brewed it to be that catalyst for inspired conversation.
We use floor malted pilsner malt as the base of this pale, clean pilsner. Floor malting is the traditional bohemian method keeping it slightly unmodified with more complex flavor. We then use bountiful amounts of Saaz hops to build a spicy and herbal flavor profile with a pronounced bitterness yet a biscuity malty finish.
Aww, come on you guys, its so simple. Maybe you need a refresher course. This traditional style originating from Dortmund features bready aromatics and German noble hops for a delicious lager that falls right between the malty Munich Helles and the hop-forward Pilsner. Brewed to “export” strength with a double decoction mash, it’s one of the strongest premium lagers.
For those who love rich, full-flavored craft beers, our malty selections are a treat. Expect deep caramel notes and toasty profiles that warm the soul, making them a favorite at Grand Central Brewhouse.
Our Mild Ale is an American version of the classic British style. This malt-forward brew has notes of caramel and toast with a light-medium body and deceitfully dry finish. It pairs well with most foods and looks beautiful in the glass. This is the kind of beer you’d walk far for, like really far, just to be the one who walked a thousand miles to fall down at this bar.
If you crave deep, complex flavors, our dark and roasty craft beers are a must-try. These bold brews are perfect for cooler evenings at Grand Central Brewhouse.
This Black Lager drinks just like its’ lighter cousin, but this dark soul has roasted malt flavors with a light body and dry, roasty finish. It’s, like, how much more black could this be? And the answer is: None. None more
black.
This Tmavé, or Czech Dark Lager, is brewed with a triple decoction to create a rich, malty backbone. It has mild roasty characters balanced by dark, dried fruity esters for a flavor that falls in between a Munich Dunkel and a Schwarzbier. “So what? So let’s dance!”
These brews shine during our lively music nights, where the atmosphere is as vibrant as the beer. Our hoppy selections are for true hop enthusiasts, offering intense aromas and flavors. Enjoy these lively craft beers at Grand Central Brewhouse during taproom events.
Leg Day IPA is brewed in collaboration with the Tampa Bay Rowdies, inspired by their relentless energy on the field. This medium-bodied, hop-forward IPA showcases Strata and Citra hops, delivering a dynamic blend of berry sweetness, strawberry, and a ripe citrus kick. Bold and flavorful yet smooth on the palate, this beer is crafted for those who give it their all—on the field or in the stands. After all, every victory deserves a proper pint.
Glitter Wizard is a Hazy Pale Ale brewed with summer in mind. This one features Mosaic Spectrum in the dry hop, a cutting-edge flowable hop extract from Barth Haas that captures the full intensity of Mosaic without the excess vegetal matter. Layered on top is Krush, a hop variety known for its lush notes of mango, guava, and ripe citrus. The result is a vibrant, aromatic pale ale that brings plenty of flavor without overwhelming the palate.
Daytime Diablo is brewed with El Dorado and Nelson hops for a vibrant mix of tropical fruit, white grape, and a hint of dank resin. Smooth, juicy, and just the right amount of mischievous, it’s the perfect pour for patio weather.
Celebrate the seasons with our rotating lineup of seasonal craft beers. From spiced autumn ales to refreshing summer wheat beers, Grand Central Brewhouse always has something new on tap.

Glitter Wizard is a 5% Hazy Pale Ale brewed with summer in mind. This one features Mosaic Spectrum in the dry hop, a cutting-edge flowable hop extract from Barth Haas that captures the full intensity of Mosaic without the excess vegetal matter. Layered on top is Krush, a hop variety known for its lush notes of mango, guava, and ripe citrus.
The result is a vibrant, aromatic pale ale that brings plenty of flavor without overwhelming the palate.
Glitter Wizard is the perfect companion for enjoying multiple rounds on these warm-weather days. It’s from on draft TODAY, so come on through and grab a glass.
The only pitch you need to hear today.
Elevator Pitch is our take on a traditional Munich-style Helles. Expect grainy, honey-like malt flavor with a light body and restrained hop character that lets the malt shine. It’s a crisp, clean, easy-drinking classic made for enjoying in the beer garden…or an elevator.
In today’s Sharing a Shiftie, Stacy talks about what goes into making events at Grand Central Brewhouse feel personal. From the small touches that set the tone to the behind-the-scenes pivots that keep everything on track when plans shift, it’s all about creating a great experience.
Whether it’s a baby shower, graduation, retirement party, wedding rehearsal, or something a little less traditional, Stacy’s goal is the same: make it memorable for you and your guests.

As our Event Coordinator, she’s the driving force behind the shows, markets, and memorable moments that fill our calendar. Ask her what she loves most about the work, and she’ll tell you it’s the people, the philanthropy, and of course, the beer.
As for beer: one of her favorite projects was helping create our Tamarind & Soursop Sour, inspired by the bold, bright flavors she grew up with in Trinidad.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and we’re proud to partner with friends and leaders in the craft beer community to raise awareness and funds for NAMI Pinellas (@namipinellas) —the local chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
We first learned about National Alliance on Mental Illness from our friends in the craft beer industry; Amanda King, formerly of Hawthorne Bottle Shoppe and Adrian Castro, formerly of Union Beer Store at an event hosted for NAMI at Tripping Animals Brewing a few years back and are thrilled to be a part of this campaign to raise awareness of NAMI and funds for such a great local non-profit.
Throughout May, a portion of profits from our three Brew Good Partner beers will support NAMI Pinellas and their mission to provide education, resources, and support for individuals and families impacted by mental health conditions.
Join us tomorrow, Wednesday, May 7 from 5–7 PM upstairs at Grand Central Brewhouse for the main event—featuring guest bartenders Amanda King (@champagnefridayss), Megan (@megwa813) and Colleen (@colleencocob) (Hawthorne Bottle Shoppe OGs), and our very own Stacy (@stace_likesthesours_trini) —with all tips donated directly to NAMI Pinellas.
Come enjoy music by Dj Pretty Ricky (@pr3ttyricky), great beer, and a space to come together for a cause that matters.
