World of Beer® is a neighborhood, non-smoking, upscale social establishment dedicated to the enjoyment of beer and education of the beer enthusiast. More than a bar, the World of Beer® offers over 500 different bottled beers from around the world and an ever-changing rotation of draft beers from dedicated taps. The World of Beer® caters to a broad spectrum of patrons, including local professionals and neighborhood residents, fans of beer and discerning beer aficionados.The original location, in the suburban-Tampa neighborhood of Westchase, opened in 2007 and welcomes over 89,000 patron visits per year. In addition to serving an enormous selection of beer, World of Beer® hosts local bands to play on the loft stage, holds patron appreciation events and hosts community events. After the success of the Westchase location, the founders of World of Beer® decided to franchise the concept and bring the breadth of beer offerings and good times to other neighborhoods throughout the United States. World of Beer Franchising, Inc. is the franchise development and management arm of the World of Beer concept.
