A rising craft beer scene in Miami?
In 2003, Peter Schnebly and his wife Denisse opened a winery that produces wines from exotic fruits and grapes in Homestead. They got the idea for a microbrewery about five years ago, but there was a problem. County law prohibited facilities from brewing significant amounts of beer in farming areas. So Peter lobbied Miami-Dade commissioners to amend Sections 33-1 and 33-279 of the county code.

Visited yesterday. The four beers I tried were all good, my favorite being their Passionfruit IPA. No doubt about it, South Florida’s craft beer scene is on the way up.
Also, one extra comment. The President of the Winery/Brewery told me they don’t grow or use grapes for any of their wines.
