Pensacola Nano-Brewery in Planning: Funky Skunk Brewing

For anyone interested in seeing more locally brewed beer options in Pensacola, the wait may soon be over. We have just learned that Funky Skunk Brewing, a new nano-brewery based in Pensacola, is in early stages of development.

From the Funky Skunk's Facebook page:

Our mission is to brew beers that are uniquely different, great tasting and Funky in their own ways. Our beers are brewed so that everyone from a beer novice, all the way to a seasoned aficionado will enjoy.

They have already announced their planned brew lineup for 2013:

• Red Dawn Amber Ale
• Liberty APA
• Aztec Cerveza
• AmeriWheat
• Port O'Call

If you're curious about Funky Skunk beers, a tasting is tentatively scheduled for late March / early April. We look forward to hearing more about this welcome addition to the Pensacola craft beer community. You can follow their progress on both Facebook and Twitter.
