Naples is normally not known for its craft beer, especially to travelers. That’s probably because the presence of craft beer in Naples is still a fairly new trend, showing up around here about five years ago.
Even though this is a new trend in Naples, and also in Southwest Florida as a whole, it looks like it is not going away. This is good news for the beer lover, especially for those who love to travel. Our post today will go over what the beer lover visiting Naples should know and explore during your vacation in Naples.

Where to Find a Good Pint in Naples:

For the beer lover visiting Naples throughout the year, there are several bars that offer great local craft beer and beer from around the world on tap.

The Naples Beach Brewery

Initially founded in 2012 by Will Lawson and Mike Conley, The Naples Beach Brewery is the first and currently the only microbrewery in Naples. Nonetheless, it is continuing the microbrewery revolution that was brought to Fort Myers and Marco Island years earlier. How the Naples Beach Brewery is continuing this revolution in microbrewery in Southwest Florida is that it is bringing high quality, distinct, yet classic types of beer to Naples.
Naples Beach Brewery has unique beers on tap, like their Naples Classic, which is an ale hybrid, their Triple C, which is a coffee stout, and an American ale brewed with mango and ginger which they call Line Dropper.

Riptide Brewing

Riptide Brewing is made up of three good friends, Bob Menzies, Scott Alexander and Norm Scherner. The trio found an old office warehouse in North Naples a few years ago and started brewing beer there.
It turned into a sort of man cave. That secret location (known to all their friends), has been the scene of some great gatherings for beer, food and music. As they enjoyed brewing and drinking our beer, they decided it would be even more fun to go big to share with all of Naples. That’s how Riptide Brewing Company came to be born.
