Everyone is excited about the Brew Fest that will be taking place at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Even the dolphins! Just kidding…the dolphins and other sea creatures will NOT be consuming beer or any adult beverages.

This Brew Fest is a Clearwater Marine Aquarium (CMA) “Over 21 After-Hours” event. It’s the fifth in this series of 21 and up entertainment. Brew Fest is happening on Friday, Oct. 6th. It will run from 6:30 to 9:30 P.M.

It’s a mash-up of craft beers and marine life. Not only will you be able to taste craft beers from local breweries, but you can peruse the aquarium exhibits, too. Visit the dolphins and sea turtles.

Check out some of the Bay’s best brewers: 3 Daughters Brewery, Cigar City Brewing, Coppertail Brewing Co., Crooked Thumb Brewery, Cigar City Brewing, Escape Brewing Company, Olde Florida Brewing Company, Sierra Nevada, and Tampa Bay Brewing Co.

They’ve got great entertainment on tap, as well. Second Rodeo will be performing.

If you want to purchase general admission tickets, you can do so for $85 per person. Along with ticket to entrance, the general admission ticket will also allow you to try 12 beer or food samples. They also have VIP tickest available for $115 per person.

If you’d like to buy tickets, you can visit the Aquarium website.

If you’re not able to make it down to the Brew Fest, I highly recommend a trip to CMA. Do you love marine biology and marine life? Then a visit is a no-brainer. The care the provide for their rescued sea creatures is impeccable. And this is a visit that everyone in the family will love. Check out Island Way Grill for a delicious lunch or dinner after. CMA is right next to it.

Tampa Bay Home To Two Of The Best Aquariums

A survey of USA Today readers put together a list of the 10 best aquariums in the country. Tampa Bay is host to two of them. Where are they and what do they offer?

In one of USA Today‘s latest “10Best” lists, the publication wanted readers to make their choice (from a select list). Which is the best (or their favorite) aquarium in the United States.

There were two states that each boasted two spots on the list. One was Florida. The other Tennessee. The two Florida aquariums on the list are each located in the Tampa Bay area. Which two are they?
