A fast-growing niche of craft brewers nationwide that have inspired and excited both curious consumers and die-hard beer lovers alike to indulge in new, innovative, often fun, sometimes crazy flavors — accompanied, of course, by equally inspired marketing.
To be sure, that’s a point not lost on Peter Kendall and Walt Costello, founders of Point Ybel Brewing Company. Having successfully introduced a variety of craft brews in restaurants throughout Sanibel, Fort Myers Beach and the surrounding area, Point Ybel Brewing Company has officially gone public, with a new brewery and tasting room in Fort Myers. For both men, the brewery is the culmination of their beer-lover’s and island-lover’s dream. Read all about their Sanibel- and island-themed specialty brews here in this month’s COASTE magazine.
