Fall in Orlando may not necessarily mean the leaves will change colors or that we'll get sweater weather, but in Central Florida, we sure know how to embrace the flavors of Fall.
That's why we've created a list of some of our favorite local breweries crafting Fall seasonal beers in Central Florida!
Orlando Brewing
Orlando Brewing is Florida's only certified organic brewery and is the oldest microbrewery in Orlando. The release of their Grateful Pumpkin Spiced Stout happens every August and their annual Oktoberfest extravaganza (where they released their 2019 Marzen beer) went down all day on September 21st!

Bowigens Beer Company
Check out Casselberry's Bowigens Beer Company for a pour of their Broken Hearted Pumpkin Ale! This 6.2% beer tastes like pumpkin pie and will be available on tap in October.
Oviedo Brewing Company
Those on the east side of Orlando can swing through Oviedo Brewing Company for a pint of Oktoberfest! This Fall seasonal is already pouring and is described by the company as "luminous amber in color with a brilliant glassy translucence" as well as a "highly quaffable malt forward lager."
Tactical Brewing Company
This veteran-owned brewery in Orlando's Baldwin Park neighborhood is pouring a German style festbier described as a "clean yet complex lager with faint caramel sweetness, bready malt backbone, and Noble hop finish." The brewery has also released a limited number of commemoratiive Tactical Brewing Oktoberfest mugs.
Toll Road Brewing Company
This brewery in Ocoee plans to pump up the Fall flavor with Pumptoberfest on October 19th. Toll Road will tap two housemade seasonals (a festbeer and pumpkin ale) alongside various other Fall favorites from around the state and country.
Playalinda Brewing Company - Brix Project
While the 321area may be a hike for some, we recommend making the trip to Titusville to sip on Playafest this Fall. The balanced amber lager finishes clean and will be available on tap and to-go starting on September 21st.
