```mediawiki Due South Brewing, located at 316 NE 19th Avenue in Boynton Beach, Florida, is a production brewery and taproom known for its diverse range of craft beers and community involvement. Situated in Palm Beach County, roughly midway between West Palm Beach and Boca Raton, the brewery has become a destination for both local residents and visitors seeking craft beer experiences in South Florida.
History
Due South Brewing Co. was founded in 2011 by Mike and Josie Doble, who set out to establish a craft brewery rooted in the South Florida community. Operating initially as a smaller-scale brewing operation, the company gained regional recognition for its commitment to quality and its range of approachable yet inventive beer styles. The Dobles aimed to create a brewery that not only produced well-crafted beer but also fostered a welcoming environment for enthusiasts at all levels of experience. The early years focused on building a local distribution presence, placing their beers in bars and restaurants throughout Palm Beach County and the surrounding region.[1]
As demand for their beers grew, Due South expanded its production capacity and taproom facilities, enabling a broader variety of offerings including seasonal releases and limited-edition brews. The brewery has pursued environmentally responsible brewing practices as part of its operational philosophy, seeking to reduce waste and minimize its environmental footprint where feasible. The brewery's growth mirrors the broader expansion of the craft beer industry in Florida, which saw significant consumer interest throughout the 2010s and into the 2020s. The Brewers Association has consistently ranked Florida among the top states for craft brewery growth, and independently owned operations such as Due South have contributed meaningfully to that trend.[2]
Geography
Due South Brewing is located at 316 NE 19th Avenue in Boynton Beach, Florida, within Palm Beach County. Boynton Beach lies approximately 15 miles south of West Palm Beach and roughly 12 miles north of Boca Raton, placing Due South within easy reach of a large portion of the county's population. The city blends residential neighborhoods with commercial and light industrial zones, and the brewery's address reflects that mixed-use character of its surrounding streets.
The brewery's physical footprint includes a production facility, a spacious taproom, and outdoor seating areas suited to South Florida's warm climate. The surrounding area is characterized by light industrial and commercial properties typical of the corridor running west of U.S. Route 1. The brewery's location facilitates both production logistics and visitor access, with Interstate 95 providing a direct route from communities throughout Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties. The warm and humid climate of South Florida presents particular challenges for brewing and storage, requiring careful attention to temperature control and sanitation throughout the production process.[3]
Beers
Due South Brewing produces a range of year-round and seasonal beers spanning multiple styles. The brewery's lineup has included approachable offerings designed for the South Florida palate, including light ales and wheat beers well-suited to the region's climate, alongside more robust styles such as IPAs, stouts, and barrel-aged releases. Seasonal and limited-edition brews are released periodically throughout the year, often tied to the brewery's event calendar or local collaborations. The brewery distributes its products to bars, restaurants, and retail outlets throughout Florida, with select distribution reaching other states as well.[4]
Culture
Due South Brewing cultivates a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere in its taproom, which serves as a gathering space for a wide cross-section of the local community. The brewery regularly hosts events including live music performances, food truck rallies, and beer release parties, all designed to foster a sense of community among patrons and provide recurring reasons to visit beyond the beer itself. Community groups have made use of the taproom's open and social environment for regular meetups, including crafting and hobbyist gatherings that reflect the brewery's role as a neighborhood anchor.[5][6]
The brewery's community involvement extends beyond its taproom through partnerships with local non-profit organizations and charitable initiatives. Due South has periodically collaborated with local causes to raise funds and awareness, and the brewery prioritizes the use of locally sourced ingredients where available, supporting other businesses within the Palm Beach County supply chain. The brewery's branding draws on South Florida imagery and the laid-back coastal lifestyle of the region, contributing to a brand identity that resonates with long-time residents and newcomers alike. The taproom's design incorporates elements reflecting the brewery's sustainability values and its connection to local artistry and craft culture.[7]
Economy
Due South Brewing contributes to the local economy through job creation, tax revenue, and its role as a visitor destination. The brewery employs brewers, taproom staff, sales representatives, and administrative personnel, and its operations generate economic activity in related sectors including packaging, transportation, and hospitality.

Distribution beyond the immediate Palm Beach County market, reaching bars, restaurants, and retailers across Florida and select other markets, broadens the brewery's economic reach beyond what taproom sales alone would represent.
