Craft beers are brewed at more than 300 Florida brewpubs. Most are small mom-and-pop operations born in a garage as a hobby, growing into new digs, storefronts, warehouses and industrial parks.
Most are locally owned and feature local themes and local history in their decor and naming their brews. These folks take pride in their work, and it shows.

Thank you so much, Ed! I'm banging my head against my desk over Green Bench and St. Pete, especially since we have written about both in this story: https://www.floridarambler.com/craft-beer/st-pete-central-ave-brewpub-tour/.

This is quite the undertaking - but if kept up to date, it will be super helpful! FYI in Daytona Beach: Daytona Beach Brewing has closed. Red Pig Brewery (https://www.theredpigbrewery.com/home) 101 2nd Street, Unit 401 Holly Hill, FL 32117 Red Pig recently started having food trucks on site. Watch for new releases - they have the most "adventurous" beers.
Worlds Most Famous Brewery 816 Main Street, Daytona Beach, FL 32118 (co-located with the Pallet Pub) Find them on Untappd or Facebook. A nano-brewery just getting started. They are worth a visit if you're in downtown Daytona Beach or at the actual beach!
