Brewnited we stand!American Craft Beer Week is upon us and the craft beer scene continues to thrive in South Florida. That means that through May 17th, beer enthusiasts have a chance to enjoy, share and learn more about the beverage that they adore. There is no better way to pay homage to America's favorite libation than by devoting a full week to tastings, tap takeovers and specialty brew releases. It is an ideal way for breweries, home brewers and members of the industry to personally connect with the fans that love their products. From brews crafted in the deep south of Homestead all the way to Broward, we have you covered with your weekend beer festivities and we have to warn you… the thirst is real.
