Point Ybel Brewing company brews first batches

Southwest Florida is a few steps closer to a new brewery on their doorstep. Point Ybel Brewing Company, a brewery opening in the Point Ybel area of Fort Myers has posted pictures to their Facebook page of beer-making activities at their facility. According to the pictures and posts, the efforts today are going toward brewing Sanibel Red, which according to Point Ybel’s website is a 5% red ale with “[t]oasted malts with a sweet and bready flavor. Has a low hop character. Brewed with local Mangrove honey. Easy to drink.”

While the folks at Point Ybel strayed away from giving an exact opening date, when a local beer enthusiast asked if they were still shooting for mid-October, the brewery responded with a response of “Soon!”
