List Of Breweries In Florida
The U.S. state of Florida is home to over 250 breweries. The state's first brewery, Florida Brewing Company, opened in 1896. The industry was dominated by mid-sized regional breweries until the 1950s, when national macrobreweries came to the fore, and built their own facilities in the state. Since the 1980s, and especially since legal changes in 2001, Florida has become home to many brewpub restaurants and craft breweries. Background Laws and definitions Florida state licensing provides for two types of breweries: brewpubs, or restaurants that produce limited quantities of beer primarily for sale on premises, and production breweries that distribute beer offsite.

Brewpub
Craft beer is a beer that has been made by craft breweries. They produce smaller amounts of beer, typically less than large breweries, and are often independently owned. Such breweries are generally perceived and marketed as having an emphasis on enthusiasm, new flavours, and varied brewing techniques. The microbrewery movement began in both the United States and United Kingdom in the 1970s, although traditional artisanal brewing existed in Europe for centuries and subsequently spread to other countries. As the movement grew, and some breweries expanded their production and distribution, the more encompassing concept of craft brewing emerged. A brewpub is a pub that brews its own beer for sale on the premises. Producer definitions Microbrewery Although the term "microbrewery" was originally used in relation to the size of breweries, it gradually came to reflect an alternative attitude and approach to brewing flexibility, adaptability, experimentation and customer service.
