AND... NEEDED A BEER! (Bog Brewing Pilsner in the Fest Glass) ST AUGUSTINE CRAFT BREWERS FEST MAY 7, 2022 The sold-out fest returned to Fountain of Youth in 2022 under blue skies with beer flowing. It was quite the fun afternoon of day-drinking. Brewers brought a number of new beers this year, and there was something for everyone, from hazy, sour, stout, to lager. Breweries from around Florida, and at least one-out-of-stater, delighted the tastebuds of the fest-goers. Even the resident peacocks had a great afternoon. MAIN & SIX BREWING, JAX, ANNOUNCES SURPRISE CLOSING SET FOR MARCH 2022 [UPDATE: A new brewery, Historically Hoppy Brewing, is slated to open in the space in mid-April, with new owners-homebrewers] [UPDATE: 3/12: Main & Six Brewing's last day was Saturday, March 12, and it is now closed.] Dennis Espinosa, co-owner of Jacksonville multiple award-winning brewery Main & Six Brewing Company, announced in social media posts on January 19, 2022, that the brewery will be closing on March 13, 2022, or possibly earlier. Citing "a combination of internal and external factors, one of which has been the current pandemic," Espinosa thanked the brewery's patrons for the past four years. Read the social media post here. Main & Six Brewing most recently won the title of Brewery of the Year (251-500 barrel category) at the 2021 Great American Beer Festival ("GABF"), along with Silver and Bronze medals. These medals complement a 2020 GABF Gold Medal and earlier awards from Best Florida Beer and other competitions. Search for articles here on brewnymph.com about Main & Six Brewing. Espinosa and his award-winning beers will certainly be missed. CONGRATS TO THE 2021 GABF WINNERS!
