Almost There 2026: A Celebration of Homebrew
2026-02-15 13:00 - 16:00 | Southern Lights Brewing Company, 2075 Sunnydale Blvd, Clearwater, FL, 33765, United States
Our friends at Southern Lights Brewing are excited to host our annual Celebration of Homebrew in Clearwater, FL. We’re Almost There to TBBW26 and what better way to get ready than a free event? We love our homebrew community and every year we host a beer festival that celebrates them. Every great brewery story begins with good homebrew story. And most who brew at home never go pro but do it for the joy of learning and sharing with friends. We invite you to make a few friends, learn about brewing, enjoy some amazing beverages, and celebrate this thriving community that continues to inspire. Join us at Southern Lights Brewing on February 15th, 1-4pm.

Entry is free! Please note that we need you to register, you must be 21, and bring your own tasting cup. “Tickets” go live on Wednesday, November 19.

A food truck will be on site and announce once confirmed.
This event is outdoors but there is plenty of indoor space for us to enjoy. Should it rain (and that’s rare this time of year) the tasting room will be open throughout the event.
