Bradenton’s Little Giant Brewery just got one step closer to opening. On Wednesday, owner Michael Wagner announced that he had picked up the building permit for the brewery’s facility on 7th Street East in Bradenton.

The brewery will begin construction and once construction is complete and equipment is in place, the Wagner should begin to pour his brews for the general public.

About Little Giant Brewery from their Facebook Page:

The evolution of a small brewery spearheading the craft beer revolution in the beer frontier of southwest Florida. We started in a beach shack in Anna Maria and are now found in a 5,400 square foot production facility near the Manatee River in east Bradenton. The brewery and tasting room is scheduled to open to the general public in the fall of 2013. Until then, stop by for a taste of one of our pilot brews!
