Episode 153: Upcoming Beer Festivals and Hiatus Brewing, Ocala, FL

Florida Beer Podcast - Powered by FloridaBeerBlog.com

Welcome to Ocala, home of the Ocala National Forest and Horse Capital of the World! While either of those would make an excellent theme for a local brewery, Hiatus Brewing instead decided to make their brewpub operation more of a tropical oasis in the middle of North Central Florida. On today's episode, we speak to Hiatus Brewing co-founder and brewer, Lucas Frank, about his medical background and moving to Ocala, deciding to open a brewery, some of the challenges and benefits of brewing in Ocala and Marion County, and the inspiration behind their wonderfully fun and tropical name and tap room. But first, there's a bunch of awesome beer festivals coming to Florida next week and in the coming months, and we need to give a quick rundown of everything you can visit. Listen in...
