World Of Beer Aims For 100-Store Footprint

The Tampa-based craft tavern continues to roll out new locations. It cut the ribbons on 22 new outlets last year, and now the 77-unit chain says it should have more than 100 locations opened by the close of 2016. World of Beer has a footprint in 20 states, and will debut in Minnesota, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Las Vegas this year. It hopes to open its first international location in Shanghai.
