Dunes Brewing is the brainchild of craft beer lovers – Michael Benedict, Bobby Zitzka and Chris Thompson. They dreamed up the idea of owning a brewery while they were attending the University of Florida. Now, almost 25 years later, they are excited to accomplish that dream of a coastal brewery, built on the historic dunes between the Atlantic Ocean and Halifax River.

Our 4,000 square-foot taproom features two bars with six craft brews on tap, to start, an expansive wine selection, and popular champagnes, seltzers and ciders to enjoy. Its seating areas create a living room feel for people to relax, while also having areas to play your favorite games like Mandalorian Pinball, the Simpson’s Game, Hockey, 720 State or Die Arcade and two shuffle boards.

“We wanted to design a place where people could drink up the coastal lifestyle, feel at home and have some fun, said Courtney White, Dunes Brewing Designer. “After a long day, being able to head to Dunes and sink into one of the couches or chairs while enjoying an amazing brew, there’s nothing like it!”

Local brewing legend Jeremy Shaw is the mastermind behind the unique flavors that make up Dunes Brewing’s first six craft beers – Black Tide Schwarzbier Lager, Mrs. Bumstead Blond Ale, Undertow Porter, Down Under Classic IPA, Sunglow Saison and Farmhouse Ale. Not only does Dunes Brewing have some of the best brews on tap, but it’s also the place where free beer tomorrow really exists! At Dunes, if you buy three pints today, you get one free the next day.
