The Florida Breweries Report – September 2019

The September curse strikes again, as Florida breweries suffer another down month.

Monthly Highlights

  • Eight new Florida breweries in September 2019: American Icon Brewery (Ft. Lauderdale), Dangerous Minds Brewing Co. (Pompano Beach), Strange Beast Brewpub & Pizzeria (Miami), Lemonstreet Brewing Co. (Jacksonville), Four Stacks Brewing Co. (Gibsonton), Hiatus Brewing Co. (Ocala), Hammerstein Brewing Co. (Largo), and Ormond Garage (Ormond Beach).
  • No Florida brewery upgraded from a brewpub license (CMBP) to a production brewery  license (CMB) in September 2019. Breweries with a CMB license can start fill growlers, sell bottled or canned products for consumption off premises, and sell to licensed distributors. Where a brewery upgrades its license, the tables below denote the CMBP license with * and the CMB license with ^.
  • In September 2019, the total number of licensed breweries stood at 372. Of those, 355 breweries reported taxpaid sales in September.
  • Month-to-month taxpaid sales fell by 7.09% in September 2019. Total taxpaid sales during the rolling last-twelve-months (LTM) rose by 0.26%. Compared to September 2018, LTM taxpaid sales were up by 10.01% in September 2019.
  • For reporting breweries, the average taxpaid sales per brewery in September 2019 was 24.96 barrels, a monthly decrease of 2.76 barrels per brewery.
  • In September 2019, Florida breweries’ taxpaid sales accounted for 0.90% of all beer sales in Florida (9.0 out of 1,000 beers sold).

About The Florida Breweries Reports

Since 2014, BrewerLong, an Orlando-area Business Law Firm, has produced the Florida Breweries Reports (“FBRs”) for one reason: to help Florida brewery owners and prospective owners have a clearer understanding of the state of the craft brewing industry in Florida. The FBRs rely entirely on data that is publically available from the Florida Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco (the “ABT”). We do not independently verify any of the ABT’s reported data. The ABT reports data about each brewery’s taxpaid sales. Generally, this means only sales by the brewery in its own taproom. For that reason, the FBRs do not reflect any information about Florida brewers’ sales to a distributor. We would love to include this in the FBR, but we take what the ABT makes available. Because we’re attorneys: The FBRs are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We disclaim any duty to update or correct any information contained in the FBRs, including errors, even if we are notified about them. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied with respect to the information contained in the FBRs, including, but not limited to, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. We will not be liable for damages of any kind arising from or in connection with your use of or reliance on the FBRs, including, but not limited to, direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, and punitive damages. You agree to use the FBRs at your own risk. If you have any questions about the FBRs, the Florida craft brewing industry, or how BrewerLong can help you, please contact us at contact@brewerlong.com.

Cheers! Trevor
