About NightLife Brewing
NightLife Brewing Company is the brainchild of two guys who grew up here in beautiful sunny Miami, who were tired of their great city being late to the craft beer scene. If Miami was going to be late to the party, it was sure going to make a scene when entering. Though how will Miami make a scene, or even change it? Simple, by being itself and letting people know how it evolved into being the Magic City. 
At NightLife Brewing we live by one motto: Produce Amazing brews worthy of a Magic City. We strive to bring you the best product made in Miami.

About Pair O’ Dice Brewing
When the craft beer scene was just emerging husband and wife team, Ken and Julia Rosenthal, would scour the country in search of their favorite brews. These travels led them to their specialty: aromatic and flavorful hop-forward West Coast-style ales. In 2013, the pair opened Clearwater’s first local microbrewery after perfecting their own recipes — all of which are designed from scratch and use Florida’s finest, naturally grown ingredients when possible. The name, Pair O’ Dice, is a play on the word “paradise” and it‘s how these native Floridians pay homage to their home state of Florida. Follow Pair O’ Dice Brewing on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to stay in-the-know or visit their website www.PairODiceBrewing.com for more company details. #GetAPair
