Stalking Garrett Oliver: The Bricks of Ybor

A few days ago, I wrote about some appearances that Garrett Oliver, Brooklyn Brewery brewmaster and author, will be making this month in Florida.

Word just came of another one. Oliver will drop in at The Bricks of Ybor for about an hour after conducting a class at the Publix Aprons Cooking School in Citrus Park on Tuesday, October 25. There are not many seats left for the Publix class.

He’s expected at The Bricks from 9:30 to 10:30 p.m. for a Meet the Brewer event and to sign copies of “The Oxford Companion to Beer,” the weighty tome for which he served as editor in chief.

The Bricks of Ybor is a comfortable, clean restaurant and pub at 1327 E. Seventh Avenue in Tampa’s historic Ybor City with a pretty decent inventory of craft beer on tap and in bottles. I wrote a piece about The Bricks’ first anniversary for the South Tampa Patch site.

You can expect a stellar lineup of Brooklyn Brewery beers on tap: Brooklyn Lager, Brooklyn Brown Ale, Brooklyn Oktoberfest, Brooklyn Pennant Ale ’55, Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout 2011 and BLAST!

If I hear of Oliver making any more appearances in Florida, it will be reported here.
