| Florida Breweries History: After Proibition
On May 8, 1933, the Florida legislature approved the sale of beer of 3.2 percent alcohol by weight. It could be sold even in dry counties since it was considered non-intoxicating. By November of 1934 the alcohol limit was removed for wet counties, and in May 1937 the legislature prohibited the specification of alcoholic content on labels. The return of legal beer saw a frenzied scramble in Florida to open new breweries. In an effort to establish cordial relations between the bew brewers, the Florida Brewers’ Association was formed on April 6, 1934. Before the major influx of the national breweries, the Florida Brewers’ Association exercised considerable powers. |
