Welton Brewing Company & Oyster Bar took to social media to announce its long-awaited grand opening, set to take place on Saturday, March 23 at 11a.m. at its new facility across the bridge.
The new brewery, taproom and seafood restaurant at 8098 66th St. N, Bldg. 2 in Pinellas Park will offer all of its classic brews—like the Crush on a Hot Blonde golden ale and Yellow Rose of Tampa Hazy IPA —plus an expanded food program.
“We can’t wait to welcome you to our cozy corner of craft beer and ocean-inspired delicacies,” ownership wrote on social media today. “Whether you’re a beer aficionado or a seafood enthusiast (or both!), there’s something here for everyone to savor and enjoy.”
The brewery’s food menu boasts a variety of different seafood options, from raw oysters, scallops and lobster to shrimp, clams and fish that can be ordered fried with a side of chips or served on a toasty, buttered roll.
There’s chicken tendies and hot dogs on the kid’s menu and a few dessert options, too.
The family-owned brewery originally opened in Land O’ Lakes in January of 2020 and had an almost three year run before closing its doors in late 2022. Fans of its Maine-style seafood offerings and crisp lagers have been patiently waiting for the brewery’s bigger and better location to be renovated for the past two years.
The Pinellas Park brewery was initially slated to open by spring 2023.
According to its social media, the initial success of Welton Brewing Co.’s food program of Damariscotta River Oysters and lobster rolls inspired its owners, cousins Sean and Brandon Welton, to move to an expanded location in Pinellas Park.
