Ormond Brewing to release Tequila barrel-aged beer on Dos De Mayo

Ormond Brewing Company does not celebrate halfway. The crew at Ormond Brewing are going all out for Cinco de Mayo, so much so that the Ormond Brewing Taproom is celebrating the Mexican holiday a few days early because they just could not wait to release this special ale.

From Ormond Brewing Company:

Ormond Brewing Co. has set the date for their next bottle release at their Dos De Mayo party on May 2nd. The bottles of “Donkey Jote Double IPA” will only be available through the taproom at first. This double IPA is loaded with 13 different hop varieties and then aged and dry hopped in anejo tequila barrels for a truly unique brew…

Ormond Brewing Company is located at 301 Division Avenue in Ormond Beach.

Ormond Brewing set to expand

Ormond Brewing Company of Ormond Beach has been operating for just over a year now and is set to expand the operation.

The Ormond Beach Craft Brewery has a good problem: they have been operating at capacity for the better part of 11.5 of the 12 months the brewery has been open. Now, according to an article in the Daytona Beach News Journal, the brewery will be adding “adding six new fermenters and two conditioning tanks that will expand its production capacity to 3,000 gallons a week, up from its present 270-gallon capacity. The brewery is also adding a canning machine.”

In addition, the brewery will be making the 4,000 square foot space next door to them into operational space (previously it has been used for storage).

About Ormond Brewing Company

Ormond Brewing Company is an Ormond Beach, Florida based craft brewer. Ormond Brewing Company began as a friendship between homebrewing enthusiasts. After meeting in 2011 and sampling one another’s brews and thereafter collaborating on many successful small batches of beer it was decided Ormond Beach, a city rich in history, lacked a craft beer culture. After uncountable hours of hard work in September 2013, Ormond Brewing Company became Volusia County’s first brewery.
