THE FLORIDA BREWERIES REPORT – OCTOBER 2024

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. The ABT’s monthly reports reflect the activities reported by breweries and distributors during the prior month (for example, the ABT’s February reports reflect what happened in January). 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 BreweriesStrings Sports Brewery (Jacksonville Beach).
