Check out these Florida women-owned breweries
There are more than 300 craft breweries in Florida and, though beer is still largely a man’s game, there are plenty of females making their mark in the brewing industry. Here are some of the women-owned breweries you can find in the Sunshine State. They now offer public and private tours to local breweries as well as an array of their own beers. They not only have a taproom, but a canning line so patrons can enjoy their craft brews to-go.
