From sun-filled patios to warehouses bursting with local flavor, breweries in West Palm Beach are raising the bar for craft beer lovers. Whether you’re seeking a chill spot to unwind with friends, a vibrant taproom for unique releases, or a family-friendly hangout, you’ll find plenty worth sipping your way through.
Let’s get to it.
Civil Society Brewing Co.
Civil Society Brewing Co. blends family tradition with community spirit at two locations in West Palm Beach and Jupiter. You’ll spot brewing tanks named after loved ones and feel the community vibe. The West Palm taproom seats plenty of guests, even when you arrive late, and the outdoor beer garden offers ample space for dogs. The Jupiter location adds its own charm, but limits pups to service animals only.
Regular events fill the week. Trivia nights happen on Thursdays, bingo on Wednesdays, and open mic nights showcase local talent. Food trucks often park outside, offering rotating menus.
The beer lineup features IPAs like the popular FRESH and rotating Camo double IPAs. Seasonal offerings include an Oktoberfest lager styled as a true marzen, and Almost Eternity, a 12.1% ABV barrel-aged ale. House-made hop water and non-alcoholic sodas are also available. Murals by Eduardo Mendieta and an industrial, New York-inspired interior complete the atmosphere. Between the spacious seating, quality beers, and family-friendly touches, it’s easy to see why guests return.
Dixie Grill & Brewery
Stepping into Dixie Grill & Brewery, you’ll find the vibe of a neighborhood pub combined with adventurous brewing. The bar features roughly 30 taps, with nearly half dedicated to house brews. Creative names like Don’t Copy That Hoppy and Hakuna Wheatata promise flavor, while Trust No Blonde adds coffee beans to a classic blonde ale. Experimental brews rotate in, including a stout with habaneros, cocoa nibs, coconut, and vanilla.
The menu serves upscale pub fare. Options range from sun-dried tomato cavatappi and grown-up macaroni and cheese to freshly fried chicken. Dogs are welcome indoors and outdoors, with a dedicated menu for canine guests. Covered outdoor seating keeps your pup shaded and comfortable.
Antiques line the casual interior, adding character to the space. Trivia nights and Paint & Pint events encourage community gatherings, drawing crowds who enjoy local collaboration brews and guest taps. Whether you want to sample a new flavor or share a meal with friends and pets, Dixie Grill & Brewery combines inventive beer with a welcoming atmosphere.
BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse
Offering a blend of pub food and medal-winning beers, BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse serves casual California-inspired dishes alongside a robust brewing program. The menu includes deep-dish pizzas, thin-crust tavern-cut slices, burgers, salads, and pastas, ensuring variety for every guest. The famous Pizookie pairs a warm cookie with ice cream and draws visitors hungry for dessert.
The Brewhouse core lineup counts eleven signature beers. You’ll find German-style blondes, hoppy pale ales, Irish reds, and American ambers. A chocolate porter joins the regulars, complemented by seasonal and specialty releases such as a coriander-spiced Belgian-style ale or a kicked-up root beer brew.
Beer Club members get first access to experimental batches, while growlers, six-packs, and curbside pickup extend the enjoyment off-site. TVs line the casual dining area, satisfying sports fans, and a full bar rounds out drink options. Public parking and easy accessibility make stops convenient. Open from lunch through midnight, BJ’s maintains a laid-back atmosphere without dress codes, welcoming families and friends any time a craving strikes.
Coastal Karma Brewing
Tucked along Lake Park’s main drag, Coastal Karma Brewing sprawls across a 5,000-square-foot taproom filled with couches, high-tops, and picnic tables. Kids dash for the turfed play area and hanging swings while leashed dogs roam freely. After 7 p.m. the venue shifts to adults only, keeping the vibe mellow in the evening.
Every beer here is brewed in-house using a private yeast strain, so you won’t find these exact brews anywhere else. Their IPAs—Karma Hoptra and Wicked Hoppy—draw plenty of praise, and the stouts like Good Karma and Chocolate Starfish hold serious flavor. Seasonal releases keep things interesting, from the citrusy Oogie Boogie wheat ale to a fall-forward Butternut Pumpkin Slayer. Occasionally you’ll even spot a wild sour, such as the pickle-brined version that surprises every palate.
Food trucks roll in Thursday through Sunday, and private events allow you to bring your own caterer. Weekly events range from bingo paired with a silent-disco DJ to live music and Harry Potter trivia. With its laid-back atmosphere and rotating lineup, Coastal Karma quietly anchors Lake Park’s social calendar.
Mathews Brewing Company
Found in Lake Worth’s Artisanal District, Mathews Brewing Company claims the title of the city’s first independent craft brewery. Owner-brewer David Mathews runs a three-vessel brewhouse visible through large windows, and an air-conditioned taproom ensures comfort year-round. A concert-level sound system amps up live events, distinguishing this spot from your average echo-filled brewery.
Outside, a covered South Florida beer garden hosts regular live music. Dogs are welcome, and kids can stay until their 8 p.m. curfew. Next door, a scratch kitchen serves freshly prepared dishes—no microwaves in sight.
Mathews beers emphasize quality ingredients. Night Prowler is a chocolate stout brewed with actual cocoa nibs, while Seek & Destroy packs imperial-stout intensity. IPA fans praise Accelerate and Heavy Metal, and fruit-forward options include L-Dub Tropical Ale and a seasonal Rhythm Strawberry Blonde. Weekly limited releases and cask-ale experiments round out the offerings. Growlers, crowlers, and kegs are available for take-home enjoyment. Mathews delivers more than beer—it’s an all-around craft destination.

Housed in Lake Park’s creative district, The Brewhouse Gallery blends art and craft beer under one roof. One gallery room features 14 to 18 local artists who pay no commission, so they keep every sale. Vibrant murals fill the walls, and you can challenge friends to giant Connect Four or sign up for a hands-on painting class.
On the brewing side, Kelsey City Brewing Co. pours 30 to 45 rotating taps of house-made beers alongside global craft selections. Seasonals get adventurous with offerings like a basil IPA in summer and a bourbon-barrel-aged stout once temperatures drop. If hops aren’t your thing, award-winning sangria and quality coffee round out the list.
Food trucks and local vendors line up regularly, while poetry readings, trivia nights, and live music happen under twinkle lights. By supporting artists, brewers, and performers without taking a cut, The Brewhouse Gallery has become a genuine hub for South Florida’s creative community.
Stormhouse Brewing
Family-run since 2021, Stormhouse Brewing anchors a North Palm Beach block with creative beers and elevated pub fare. The Brinzo family oversees a scratch kitchen that turns out lobster mac and cheese, house-made pierogies, two-hand-required burgers, wings, and tacos.
Inside the taproom you’ll find fifteen taps featuring eight core beers like Billie Rose Blonde, named for the owner’s daughter, and Nor’easter, a juicy New England IPA. Seasonal pours include Strawberry Sunrise, a hefeweizen heavy on fresh berries, and Resting Witch Face, a pumpkin-spice ale with depth beyond clichés.
On the patio, seafaring decor sets a relaxed tone for trivia nights, live music, and even dog-friendly games.
