New Smyrna Brewing Company is a micro-brewery and taproom located in downtown New Smyrna Beach, Florida. The owners are locals and New Smyrna Beach High School graduates who dreamed up the brewery while enjoying a growler of fresh local beer around a campfire in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. They would visit local breweries in their travels and think 'we need something like this in New Smyrna Beach.' Chris, the brewmaster, spent years brewing beer in his garage and hosting 'free beer Fridays' for friends to drink and critique the test batches before opening the doors in January 2014.

Today, brewery patrons can enjoy a pint in the intimate taproom while admiring the brewery equipment or take home a growler of the freshest beer in town. Local favorites include the Shark Attack IPA which you can find at select local bars and restaurants, Disappearing Island Apricot, and Coronado Beach Cream Ale, but you never know what new or seasonal beer will appear on the chalkboard next.
