About
Founded in December 2013 by a team of local Floridians, Saltwater Brewery is Delray Beach's first local production microbrewery, with tasting room and beer garden on sight. Using only pure and natural ingredients, each style of handcrafted beer and corresponding name is inspired by the ocean to reflect the lifestyle and passion of the Founders. Saltwater’s goal is to maintain the world’s greatest wonder by giving back through ocean based charities (CCA, Surfrider, Ocean Foundation, MOTE) and the Edible Six Pack Rings. Over 12 styles are typically available in the tasting room, while Screamin’ Reels IPA, Sea Cow Milk Stout and LocAle, are distributed in cans and on tap throughout the state of Florida. Packaging is done on-site with the brewery’s in-house canning line, as well as their new in-line labeler for seasonal and special releases.
Our passion for making quality beer for you is the way we can ensure we give back to the ocean as much as possible! Come with us to "Explore the Depths of Beer". Cheers!

Draft at the brewery. Poured a nice orange color with a medium white head. Aroma was nice pine resin, some light tropical notes. Flavor was nice pine resin notes. I don’t have my photos in front of me, but I thought the ABV was higher than 9%... it’s still well hidden, reminding me more of something around 7%, with perhaps a bit of a resin bite.

Draft at the brewery. Poured a kind of murky orange color with a small wispy off-white head. Aroma was heavy wood, some vanilla notes. Flavor was light sweet malt, vanilla and lots of woody notes. Touch sweet. Not sure what the experimental hop added as the barrel was the most dominant character in this. Interesting.

Draft at the brewery. Poured a clear golden color. Aroma was grassy notes, some armpit. Earthy hops and a touch of skunk. Wished it had more of a citrus note to it, mostly earthy, some light orange. Ah well, their other offerings have been pretty good...

Draft at the brewery. Poured a dark ruby color with a fading medium sized white head. Aroma was some light sour notes, some woody notes from the barrel. Funky. Sweet malts. Reminds me a bit of a thinner Duchesse De Bourgogne.
