USA, FL: Green Bench Brewing to open in St. Petersburg

1920s-era warehouse in St. Petersburg is now home to a large-scale craft microbrewery, as reported by Tampa Bay Business Journal on October 14.

Green Bench Brewing Co. is scheduled to host an opening party on Oct. 19.

The brew house at 1133 Baum Ave. N. features a 1,500-square-foot tasting room and a 6,000-square-foot beer garden.

Owners Steven Duffy and Nathan Stonecipher named the brewery after the green benches that were once common along Central Avenue.
