Local beer, southern bites, & local stories.

We're a brewpub located in downtown Panama City, Florida excited to tell historic stories of our community around food and drink. We hope you'll join us downtown!

Our Mission

We love this town and the stories of how this community was built. It was built by ordinary people who gathered and did extraordinary things together.

We're excited to tell these stories around food and drink. We want to be a place our community can come gather, meet each other, support progress by supporting each other, and help Bay County realize it's untapped potential.

Southern Small Bites

We serve beer-friendly food that we feel represents our community and culture.

Our Beers

Our beers span the spectrum from light approachable ales to hazy IPAs, sours, and porters. We pride ourselves on a well-rounded variety with something on tap for just about everyone.

Belle Booth

Blonde Ale

This easy-drinkin' American classic is known for its simplicity and smooth finish. We named it after Belle Booth, who was an important member of this community back when Panama City first became Panama City! She was our very first female postmaster. After the passing of her first husband Dr. Booth, Belle married Robert McKenzie (Panama City's first Mayor) and she is credited with building the McKenzie House with her bare hands in 1909. The house still stands as a historic landmark right behind the brewery!

McKenzie's Finest

Stout

English-style stout brewed with milk sugar for a creamy mouthfeel and just a touch of sweetness on the finish to round out notes of roasted coffee. We put this one on nitro for an even smoother finish. 

This milk stout is named after Panama City's very first mayor, Robert McKenzie. His house still stands as a historic landmark right behind our brewery in downtown Panama City.

G.M. West

Table Beer

To celebrate the 115th anniversary of Panama City's official incorporation, we brewed a very special ale inspired by a recipe we found in an old confederate recipe book dating back to the 1800's. This ale features real molasses and ginger. It's bold with a mild spice, and overall refreshing. 

We named this beer after G.M. West, who made countless contributions to our town in the early 1900's, most notably he was a major influence on naming it Panama City.  Click here to hear the story.
