Pasco's Thirsty Buffalo Brewing Company Planning Soft Opening May 11

LAND O' LAKES, FL — Thirsty Buffalo Brewing Company, a new craft brewery located at the front of the Bexley community, will have its grand opening on Thursday, May 11, 2023.

The brewery is a part of the Hub project, which is a mixed-use development with a variety of shopping and entertainment options. The beers are all crafted on-site using a five-barrel brew house, allowing the brewery to provide a broader variety of options and flavors to patrons.

Thirsty Buffalo Brewing Company is the brainchild of Erin Bishop and Jack Lucas, two passionate beer enthusiasts who wanted to bring their love for craft beer to their community. Bishop is no stranger to the industry and Lucas is a longtime friend, making the decision easy.

A unique appeal that drew the two to The Hub at Bexley is the fact that there is a large courtyard where community events will take place and the brewery can set up a satellite location to participate.

"This is a passion project, and we are opening it in the community we live in," said Bishop, co-founder of Thirsty Buffalo Brewing Company. "The approach we are using to brew features a unique selection of beers which will appeal to anyone from casual drinkers to beer enthusiasts."

Over the past seven months, Bishop and Lucas have been building out the Thirsty Buffalo Brewing Company taproom. It has a rustic, industrial vibe which creates a warm and inviting atmosphere for customers to relax and have a good time while they enjoy their beer. The brewery will have a rotating selection of beers on tap, including IPAs, stouts, lagers and seasonal brews all available on site or to go in growlers or cans.

“This is something I have debated on making the jump into for years,” said Lucas. “I’m excited the moment is here and it has finally all come together. We have worked hard to create a fun experience at The Hub and it will be unlike anything else in Pasco County.”

The soft opening of Thirsty Buffalo Brewing Company will take place on Thursday, May 11, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. at 16974 Focus Loop in Land O Lakes.
