Chubby Mermaid Brewing Co.

Welcome to Chubby Mermaid Brewing Co.  What is a Chubby Mermaid? No no please do not be offended, the term Chubby Mermaid  is a loving term given to the our beloved Florida Manatees. We at Chubby Mermaid Brewing honor these majestic creatures and will donate a percentage of beer sales to the Save the Manatee Club as an annual donation.

Carefully crafted - Locally brewed - Independent craft beer

Our mission at Chubby Mermaid Brewing is to brew unique craft beer that we’re passionate about. While nailing a traditional style is sometimes a goal, there are other times where we want to color outside the lines a bit with an experimental recipe. Our continuing mission, besides brewing great craft beer, is sharing our passion for beer with others by educating and exchanging knowledge and ideas. Last but certainly not least is to make every one of our customers feel like the Chubby Mermaid brewpub is their second home where they can go to enjoy some food and a pint alone, or share one of many life moments here with family and friends in a welcoming and relaxing environment. Our continuing mission is to conserve environmental resources as much as possible. Chubby mermaid brewing like any other brewery requires a lot of water for the production of beer, we strive to save water in multiple ways, however the biggest water saving comes from the cooling of Wort (beer before fermentation) we at Chubby Mermaid Brewing Co. utilize our recirculating glycol system to chill beer rather than the vast amounts of water typically needed for this important step. Also the vast amount of C02 that is require for tank and keg purging, we have decided to recapture our C02 for use in purging equipment rather than using a C02 tank for every brewery action. We hope you find our efforts worth the trip to beautiful Bonita Springs, Sláinte!

BEER CRAFTED THROUGH MULTIPLE ITERATIONS

Chubby Mermaid Brewing will operate in Bonita Springs, FL on a 4.2 barrel, two vessel brew house. We will also operate a small pilot brewing system where we will play with our experimental recipes prior to scaling them up in the main brew house. Beers produced on our pilot system will be available to our patrons to be reworked and refined based on your feedback until we feel we feel that we have a crowd pleaser. Once we reach that milestone, that beer will be scaled up and brewed for regular rotation.
