Buddy Brew Coffee has partnered with Coppertail Brewing to release its first-ever house beer, a Dog Dayz IPA brewed specifically for the Tampa-based coffee company.
What launched
Dog Dayz is a light and citrus-forward India Pale Ale with subtle tropical notes.
The beer is currently available on draft exclusively at three Buddy Brew locations:
- Armature Works
- W. Kennedy Blvd
- Hyde Park Village
Why the partnership matters
Buddy Brew said the collaboration reflects its focus on working with local brands that share similar values and a commitment to the community.
“We are excited to partner with our friends at Coppertail to create this house beer, just for Buddy Brew,” said Dave and Susan Ward, co-founders of Buddy Brew Coffee, in a statement. “It’s a refreshing addition to our summer menu and getting to collaborate with another locally owned business that gives back to our community makes it even more special.”
