At Grand Central Brewhouse, our Brew Good program exemplifies our commitment to making a difference. We partner with local non-profits, dedicating 15% of sales from three featured beers each month to support various charities. One standout is The Peninsular, a German Pilsner, which continues its successful collaboration with Tampa Bay Watch through the “Beer for the Bay” initiative. Stop by the taproom to explore which craft beers are supporting local causes this month and join us in our mission to give back.
As a leading brewery in St. Petersburg FL, Grand Central Brewhouse takes environmental responsibility seriously. We’ve aligned with St. Petersburg’s green energy goals by incorporating energy-efficient designs and green construction methods into our building. Our 10.65 kW solar energy system, featuring 30 solar panels, significantly cuts CO2 emissions, making a positive environmental impact equivalent to planting thousands of trees or saving tens of thousands of gallons of gasoline. We also offer bike racks, an EV charging station, and skylights in our production area, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability.
Impact on the Local Economy Grand Central Brewhouse plays a vital role in supporting the local economy as a prominent craft beer brewery. We create jobs, attract tourists, and contribute to the vibrant culture of St. Petersburg. By hosting events and promoting local partnerships, we generate a positive economic ripple effect that benefits local businesses and artisans. When you visit our taproom, you’re not just enjoying top-notch craft beers; you’re also helping to boost the neighborhood’s prosperity.
Join us at Grand Central Brewhouse, where every sip of our craft beer supports our Brew Good initiative, embraces sustainability, and fuels the local economy. Cheers to making a difference with every pint!

Join us tonight, Saturday, June 21 at 7PM as George Pennington III returns to the Beer Garden with a set that blends blues, rock, funk, and jazz fusion. Known around Tampa Bay for his fiery guitar work and expressive solos, George’s performances strike a balance between high-energy musicianship and thoughtful songwriting.
While you’ll usually catch him on electric guitar, don’t be surprised if he switches it up with piano or acoustic to change the pace. With two albums out and a third on the way, this is a great chance to catch a local favorite in his element.
Stretch, sip, and stem with us. Join The Roaming Petal and Crystal Kage for a laid-back yoga session that blends mindful movement with floral meditation and hands-on bouquet building.
You’ll flow, unwind, make something beautiful, and toast it all with a glass of bubbly (or kombucha, if that’s more your style).
Your ticket includes the full experience and a seasonal bouquet to take home.
You can grab your tickets at the link in our bio.
