The Florida Breweries Report – September 2021
Florida breweries had a pretty good month for September 2021, with total monthly sales, monthly sales per brewery, and LTM sales all up.
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.
The New Breweries: Epoca Brewing (North Miami), Oyster City Brewing Co. (Tallahassee), and Dunes Brewing (Port Orange).
From Brewpub to Production Brewery: Craft Life Brewing (Hudson). Breweries with a CMB license can 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 ^.
Total Number of Breweries: In September 2021, the total number of licensed breweries stood at 422. Of those, 389 breweries reported taxpaid sales for the month.
Monthly Performance: Month-to-month taxpaid sales rose by 3.68% in September 2021. Total taxpaid sales during the rolling last-twelve-months (LTM) were up 1.94%. Compared to September 2020, LTM taxpaid sales were up by 18.48% in September 2021.
Average Monthly Production: For reporting breweries, the average taxpaid sales per brewery in September 2021 was 26.50 barrels, a monthly increase of 0.81 barrels per brewery.
Distribution: In September 2021, Florida breweries’ taxpaid sales accounted for 0.90% of all beer sales in Florida (9.0 out of 1,000 beers sold).
