Cute little place, easy to get to, great beer choices and staff. We will definitely be back!

It sends like they have a food truck every day they're open which is nice. Is located in the back, of the beaten path so you won't just stumble upon it randomly. You need to search for this brewery. The bowl of cherry lager was amazing! Great chewy flavor and taste! They could have some games out for people to play and hang out but I didn't see anything read more

This brewery is definitely a smaller, hole-in-wall type brewery, but surprisingly enough it had a decent selection and number of beers. And even though the beers weren't mind-blowing, I thought they were still delicious and the customer service was top-notch. Our bartender was super friendly and let us try a couple of different beers before deciding. She even went as far as to recommend, let us sample four or five before deciding, and then just chat with us for a bit. I really enjoyed my sample the chocolate vanilla cinnamon stout. So smooth and creamy, but not something I could drink a whole lot of so I went with a full pour of the Sunshine Greetings, their wheat tangerine hibiscus beer. So refreshing and full of flavor. All in all this was a memorable brewery and a cute stop along our beer trail. read more

I went here recently for a bridal shower and I LOVED IT! The beer is delicious, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the bartenders are friendly and informative. I'm looking forward to coming back! read more

I usually go on Thursdays for Bingo and Disc golf! It's such an awesome place and the people are all great! I love that they have events and the beers are great too. I've tried their Dancing Pierre, their Under Duck and their Boston Cream Donut Ale. Aside from having some interesting beer, they also have some delicious food trucks stop outside their place. Have o mentioned how nice the people are (both staff and customers). They are attentive and a lot of them are just awesome. When my hands have been full from carrying beer or food, I've had people open doors for me, numerous times! It's always a great time and I love spending my time here. read more

Very nice brewery. Cool vibe. Really good beers. Our sever was friendly and they seem to be focused on making your visit a joy. The one disappointment is that they don't serve flights, although they do gladly serve tasters to be sure you like a beer before you try it. Other than that - we enjoyed our visit and we're very happy with the beers we tried. If we were going to be in Florida longer, we would try to come back. Maybe next time we're in the area... read more

I recently attended a virtual beer tasting event through Yelp and fell in love with one of the beers from Central 28 that I had to go on a venture out to find more. My husband and I made a trip of it (along with my boys) and drove out to what felt like the middle of nowhere to see this cute little brewery. I love the decor in this place and the atomosphere is lovely. It is a pet friendly place as well as kid friendly. I saw they had a space out in the back you can lounge (and perhaps play games?) in but it was being used for a private event. So .. what is this magical beer that I sought out??? Sunshine Greetings, of course. My plan was to buy some 6 packs to keep at home and give as gifts to friends. To my dismay they were out :( Our only option was to buy a growler and we ended up doing it because "well... we drove out all this way..." I wish I had taken the time to call and ask and so that's my fault I guess. I believe it's their most popular beer? I ended up sampling a few beers while I was there and they were just fine... but please don't scorn me for the words I am about to say: I am not a craft beer lover. **gasp** It's true. Which is why I was so shocked to love Sunshine Greetings. And it just wasn't as satisfying out of the growler for me... there was just something about it being canned that did it for me. So. Perhaps I will venture out that way again and give it another try. Plus... I am very interested in the food truck that had out front too. We will definitely bring out appetite as well. read more

Great space tucked away through a residential area, in your typical warehouse setting. Central 28 has been on my list of brewery visits but I've never gotten around to venturing out to that neighborhood. The space when you first walk in has many tables, along with a small bar. We weren't sure what to order but they were more than happy to offer up as many samples as you'd like to try. It's pet friendly, we brought our pup and it wad nice to not worry if we couldn't bring him. They gave us a water bowl for him too. There's more seating further into the brewery where you can view all the cased beer and the tanks. Beers are priced pretty well, most of the full pours are $6. I ended up going with the Tail Wagger Wit a Belgian style witbier a citrus pear orange peel with lemon notes. Staff was really friendly and it was nice they offered as many samples as you'd like before ordering. I just wish they had a bigger selection on their beers. The bar had some complimentary candy, how sweet, a nice little snack! There's a food truck outside in the front if you're hungry but I'd assume it wouldn't always be the same. Nice brewery to check out if you're in the area. read more

Great craft beer and local Micro brewery ambiance. Especially enjoyed the brews with a hint of citrus.

One of the friendliest breweries on the Ale Trail. A little difficult to find, but worth the search. We visited on a Sunday where there was a food truck with delicious food. They also 4-square tournaments too! read more

Visited yesterday, and enjoyed the place -very efficient welcoming friendly bartender. Beer was good, brewed right there, they have tasting glasses if you aren't sure you'll like whatever beer you want to try. The place is out there- you'd never know about it if somebody didn't tell you about it, and lucky for me... I was told about it! They also have a food truck out front with empanadas. The bar is Nice, clean, air-conditioned, and has good bathrooms on the inside! read more

This wonderful brewery, located in an industrial area of DeBary, has been opened for about a year. They have a small but interesting selection of beers at great prices. They have a $10 flight, which is a great way of sampling their most popular beers. I preferred the lighter ones. On each visit, we saw food trucks. So it seems like there is always a food trucks around. The staff was helpful, and they explained what each of their craft beer was. 4 stars... read more

What a fantastic small craft brewery right here in the heart of Central Florida!! Wonderous industrial views of the brewery werks from a small fun cozy space. I liked the beers okay, we ordered the $10 flight to try the lot and found a few favorites. Happy, friendly waitstaff. Mature, local crowd. Hidden gem? Looks like they do a fair bit of promotion. There's an event coming up and was a food truck meet up on the day we were in. Fun stuff. read more

Cozy indoor brewery in industrial park, through a residential area. Ample private parking. Tons of space in the brewery where I imagine mayhem goes down the same time the sun does. Six different beers, from ale to lager, the friendly bartenders will let you try them all. They are dog friendly, but there's no outdoor seating so we'll behaved, quiet dogs only! Also check out the Ale Trail map that has all of the breweries in central Florida. Collect stamps from all the breweries and get a complimentary growler. read more

Great Brewery located in an industrial area right off of 17 north of Lake Monroe about 7 miles north of Sanford's river walk. If you are looking for a solid brewery with lots of 4 and 6 packs to take home, this may be your spot read more

Not an overwhelming selection, but everything they have is quality! Prices could be a little better, but smaller companies need to eat too. Totally worth the $8 for a beer. The location is extremely convenient for me, but unfortunately is in a bad location for getting the normal drive by business. They do however seem to have almost a cult following with their customers. Great place. read more

I did an event here for Mother's Day and the staff was as unforgettable as the beer. Can't recommend enough!

Love coming here on Wednesdays for bingo night. Also like that they have different food trucks each week! I so so want to give 5 stars but it's really difficult to find seating there and it just doesn't seem set up as efficient as it could be. Love the couch area, but they could probably fit 3 additional tables if that was not there. You also have a lot of people standing and hovering over the bar area due to the small space and only 2 bartenders working. They are very nice ladies and always friendly! It just takes quite a long time to get through the lines and not much room to weave the line around. Other than that, beer is great and always cold! read more

Best little hidden gem in Debary. I was introduced to this place from a Tinder date (yes, a Tinder date) about 5 years ago. I would never have found it because it's in the industrial section of Debary off Shell Road. Bartenders are always nice. Beer is great. They have their classics (which are awesome) , but I only gave a four star instead of five because I'd like to see something new more often and a wider selection. I love going to a brewery and seeing what's new on the menu!. I'm looking for a coffee style beer that's a sour (Only one other place has this that I know of and I have to go to Sanford to get it). Would be great if Central 28 had this going on and a little more variety. The food trucks that are there are amazing, as well. All in all, it's a wonderful place to go especially after a long bike ride in Gemini Springs. read more

Pleasant surprise. I came to this place almost accidentally, as they offered a discount for the Mermaid Run runners. The place is OK, in a warehouse district, nothing more or less you would expect from a brewery. The beer, however, is surprisingly good. I knew it was good before tasting it, just by seeing the foam while the lady was pouring it. By the way, one thing that I find people do better overseas is pouring beer, often ignoring the importance of a nice foam collar, but this lady here did an excellent job, and if course you have to have good beer to make it work. I ordered a milk stout and it was great. Full of flavor and, which is more important, without the rough bitter aftertaste that most breweries believe stouts are about. The prices are very fair, $6-$8, worth the quality. No food, but there was a taco food truck outside. The only reason I'm not giving it a 5-star review is the crowd. Unfortunately there was a loud, clearly over-served group that made me want to finish the nice bee quicker. But it's understandable, given the location. But don't mind it, the quality of beer is worth the hassle. Have I mentioned that the beer is very good? read more

Central 28 is quite possibly my favorite local brewery! Located in a warehouse district in DeBary (a quick jaunt from Sanford on the opposite side of I-4), Central 28 is serving up delicious brews in a warm, friendly environment. I first tried their beer a year ago when it was on draft at the restaurant I worked at. I was all about it, and then managed to find their Trekker Bier at Pisces Rising in Mount Dora, as well as a sample in Whole Foods one weekend. Since then I've been regularly buying their cans and made the journey to visit one Friday in December. What I love about their beers is the complexity and focus present in them. The brewer who started Central 28 with his family has many years of experience, including working as an assistant brewer at Samuel Adams (I think, I will double check when I return). His experience shows through with the quality of the beer, and the employees I met who were there were so kind and inviting. The Trekker (a farmhouse ale) has just the right amount of funk but is also bitter and smooth. No, I'm not a cicerone, but I like to think I know good beer when I taste it. The Dancing Pierre is a Belgian-style Pale ale (spicy, bitter, and malty), which is my second favorite. Also on draft that night was the Up River (American Pale Ale), Miss Mary Brown (Oatmeal Brown Ale), Show Pigeon (IPA), and El Bulli (Milk Stout). The space is dog and kid-friendly, and there are board games and frisbee golf to entertain yourself with. Not sure if the frisbee golf is all the time, but I saw all the equipment in the brewery. Definitely worth the trip to DeBary! If you want to make a day of it, head across 17-92 to visit Gemini Springs or travel slightly south to spend some hours in downtown Sanford. read more

I'll start by stating I'm not what one might call a "beer snob" so I'm not picky or too knowledgeable in beer, but I can appreciate a super clean and comfy brewery when I visit one. This is a warehouse district which seems to be a common theme amongst breweries now. It makes you feel like you stumbled upon a secret place. The front door is easy to spot and really clean outside. Which sounds odd but I've come across some dirty feeling bars ! This place very well kept up. There is art all over the walls (for sale I believe), which is beautiful, along with their merch. The entire brewery and bar area is painted in this calm blue color. Love it! My second thought was how homey this place felt. The bar area is a small area but the vibe I got felt like everyone there was best friends. My friend and I sat down and we're spoken to by the bartender right away even though it was rather busy- on a Wednesday! She actually handed us a paper which had more info on the beers!!!! I don't think I've ever gotten anything like that before. Usually you have to just randomly pick from a list of goofy names on a board. I REALLY appreciated this, especially because I'm not too familiar with all of the types of beers. I ordered a Dancing Pierre (Belgian wheat) and my friend ordered a blood orange IPA (which also had a cute name but I can't recall it at the moment). I'm not a huge fan of IPAs but this one wasn't bitter and not dark tasting. The bartender was quick and kind!! she offered a test of any of the beers. I can't stress this homey feeling enough. The bar area is is actually all windows so you can see the gigantic warehouse. It's BEAUTIFUL. Truly. SO clean and organized. I noticed some other customers ordering smalls jugs of beer and also big sets of cans. All fresh from a tap in the brewing area. This just seems like an incredible concept to get a bunch of cans from this local brewery. Perfect for a party, while supporting a local business. They even helped bring the cans out to this customers car! True respect for this business. Can't wait to continue supporting them! !! Home breweries like these tend to have high alcohol percentages so be careful my wheat was a 6%. **I believe their hours are 4-9pm which is different than here on Yelp. Guess ill have to go back soon to check it out ! read more

Nice brewery, and bartenders were very nice. They have a kids area. Beers were pretty good.

We really love the Central 28 Beer Company. Central 28 is located in an industrial loop and has a tasting room and a brewing area. The bar staff are nice and friendly. The atmosphere is very relaxing. My husband really loved the Miss Mary Brown, while I preferred the Raspberry Trekker and the Ideia Coffee Porter. The tasting room has board games for the little and big kids to enjoy. You can also bring your dogs. read more

Having a brewery close to my house is good. Having Central 28 close to my house is great! While they do not rotate their beers as often as other breweries, Central 28 relies on high quality and consistency. The staff is excellent and always smiling.

I knew that visiting this brewery was going to take a while. I don't drive out to the Debary area too often, but since a buddy of mine and I are trying to complete the Ale Trail, we knew that this day would come. This brewery is tucked away in a residential area, and doesn't look like a brewery at all until you see the sign. This is a small brewery as well. I can see this place getting packed on certain nights. There is high top seating, and bar seating with one television. You can see the cans and brewing going on through the glass in the warehouse behind it. The service is very friendly and they even have a list of "Owe you a free beer" I added my name to the list since it was my birthday and I didn't tell them before ordering my first one, it would've been free. So I have a reason to come back. The beer was pretty good. There is also a food truck outside, and after you make your order, he'll bring it to you inside. I ordered the air and turf burger, which was a chicken and beef sandwich, and it was delicious. Most of his menu was sandwiches and there some outside seating available. read more

Google says they're closed on Tuesday but that is wrong!! They're open on Tuesdays 4-9pm!!!!!

Wow, this place is awesome. We stumbled on this small craft brewery last night because we were craving lobster rolls and the Cousins Maine Lobster truck was parked here for the night, and boy are we glad that it was! When we realized that it was a brewery that the truck was parked outside of, we decided to go in and check it out. They have a chalk board with what was on tap, I got their Brown Ale and my wife got their Lager. I adore brown ale, I've tried many and I'll never get sick of it. But this brown ale was like gold. The best I have ever had without a doubt. The lager was a slam dunk as well. I was so impressed by the two beers that I decided to get a flight and try them all. Each one was delicious. There was not a single one that I didn't like. On top of that the prices were fair and the service was excellent! We'll be back without a doubt! read more
