THE FLORIDA BREWERIES REPORT – OCTOBER 2021
MONTHLY HIGHLIGHTS
The Data: The Florida Breweries Report reflects data published by the Florida ABT, which is available online here. 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 April and October, breweries with lapsed licenses and no taxpaid sales within the past 12 months are purged from the Florida Breweries Report. A total of 39 breweries with inactive licenses have been purged in this report.
The New Breweries: Hopsized Brewing (Bonita Springs) and Dissent Craft Brewing Company (St Petersburg).
From Brewpub to Production Brewery: None this month. Breweries with a CMB license can sell to licensed distributors. Where a brewery upgrades its license, the tables below denote the CMBP license with * and the CMB license with ^.
Total Number of Breweries: In October 2021, the total number of licensed breweries stood at 385. Of those, 326 breweries reported taxpaid sales for the month.
Monthly Performance: Month-to-month taxpaid sales rose by 0.99% in October 2021. Total taxpaid sales during the rolling last-twelve-months (LTM) were down 0.87%. Compared to October 2020, LTM taxpaid sales were up by 17.49% in October 2021.
Average Monthly Production: For reporting breweries, the average taxpaid sales per brewery in October 2021 was 27.11 barrels, a monthly increase of 0.99 barrels per brewery.
Distribution: In October 2021, Florida breweries’ taxpaid sales accounted for 0.90% of all beer sales in Florida (9.0 out of 1,000 beers sold).
