THE FLORIDA BREWERIES REPORT – JULY 2026

The Data: The Florida Breweries Report reflects data published by the Florida ABT, which is available online here, as of the date of publication. The ABT monthly publishes the taxpaid sales for each brewery and distributor. Unfortunately, the ABT does not publish breweries’ sales to distributors. This means that the Florida Breweries Report reflects only breweries’ taxpaid sales, which are generally made in its taproom. Each October, breweries with lapsed licenses and no taxpaid sales within the past 12 months are purged from the Florida Breweries Report. 

The New Breweries: Azalea Brew Pub (Palatka); Brew Life Brewing (Sarasota); O’Mally’s Bar & Grille (Gulfport).

Total Number of Breweries: In July 2026, the total number of active brewery licenses stood at 447. Of those, 364 reported taxpaid sales for the month, compared to 391 reporting in July 2025.

Monthly Performance for All Breweries: Month-to-month taxpaid sales decreased by 6.97% in July 2026. Compared to July 2025, monthly sales decreased by 9.00%. Total rolling last-twelve-month (LTM) taxpaid sales remained essentially unchanged month over month and decreased by 7.87% year over year.

Average Monthly Production per Brewery: For reporting breweries, average taxpaid sales per brewery in July 2026 were 19.95 barrels, a monthly decrease of 1.61 barrels per brewery. Year over year, monthly sales per brewery decreased by 2.27%.

Distribution: In July 2026, Florida breweries’ taxpaid sales accounted for 0.70% of all beer sales in Florida (7.0 out of every 1,000 beers sold). Florida breweries’ share of all beer sales during the LTM was 0.77%.
