Escape Brewing Company

The journey of Escape Brewing Company began many years ago with a brew kit and a passion for craft beer. What started off as a hobby, quickly became an obsession for making beer.

Our Founders, John McGregor and Matt Thompson, set their sights on opening a brewery in the area they call home, Trinity, FL. Just a short 35 minute drive north from Tampa you is where you will find Escape Brewing Company has laid its roots.

In 2014 Escape Brewing Company opened its doors as a small craft brewery. It started off brewing on a 3BBL Electric Brewhouse, (4) 3BBL Fermentation Vessels, (1) 3BBL Brite Tank, and a handful of Escape Beers on tap in a 1,200 sq/ft Taproom and Brewery.

Over the next couple of years, Escape will add several more beers to the tap list, won a couple of medals for their IPAs, Sours and Desserts Stouts at the Best Florida Beer Competition, took home a Silver Medal at GABF and slowly added a few more fermentation vessels to keep up with demand. Escape could not have done this without hiring some awesome employees to help them grow and continue to meet some amazing people in their community.

Fast forward to late 2016, Escape Brewing Company expands the Taproom and Brewery to 2,400 sq/ft, adds a 3,000 sq/ft warehouse a few miles away for offsite storage and purchases a 10BBL Brewhouse with additional capacity to keep up with the demand for the Taproom and Distribution.
