To celebrate the Bolts' back-to-back Stanley Cup wins, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay says its bringing back the theme park and zoo's best attraction—free booze.

From now through the end of July, guests 21 years old and over can stop by the Garden Gate Café for two 7-oz. complimentary beers from 11:30 a.m. until one hour before the park closes.

Free beer has been a Busch Gardens staple for 50 years, all the way back to when it was owned by Anheuser-Busch, but the park ended the promotion in 2009. In 2019, during its 60th anniversary, BG brought it back, and now it's back again.
