    Good news -- 415 seems to be the magic number per the BA database, so you're getting more than double your desires. Your challenge, if you accept it, is the visit them all (or at least the ones that have a taproom). :wink:

    Welcome to the BA site. There are many things to explore here such as the Places feature that produced this list: https://www.beeradvocate.com/place/...=&city=&s_id=FL&c_id=&submit=Search&brewery=Y

    Hang around as much as you'd like, and enjoy yourself.

    Welcome! And as @PapaGoose03 has already pointed the way, there are other searches BeerAdvocate that may help. Here is one, under the main forum for South Atlantic.

    https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/search/149681179/?q=Florida&o=date&c[title_only]=1&c[node]=17

    You can conduct other searches via the “magnifying glass” in the upper right corner of the screen. After a little experimenting you will find the search engine is pretty good.

    Here is another ready made search of the “best” in FL. Under Top Rated. It is specific beers, but you can glean some of the better, albeit more heavily reviewed, breweries in the state.

    https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/top-rated/us/fl/

    Let the enjoyment commence!

    Welcome to BA and to Florida! Our State has so many breweries, and more popping up all the time, you will stay busy. What breweries have you hit so far? Cheers!

    Hey! That sounds like a fun thread idea. “Share your latest pub/brewery hopping adventure.” I don’t hop around very often, so it would be disingenuous for me to start/host a thread like that. Still would be fun to read other folks experiences.

    A good idea! I do my fair share of hopping, but I’m really lazy…I’ll think about it. Cheers!

    That would be tough to leave to Colorado, was my first thought-- then remembered I did it years ago and found endless great beers here in the extreme opposite corner of the country. Happy hunting!
