Charlie Foxtrot Brewing

Charlie Foxtrot Brewing was founded by two United States Army Veterans who have a love for beer and a desire to continue serving. During our transition out of the Army, we found ourselves dealing with the same thing many veterans do. We struggled with the loss of our sense of community, that sense of brotherhood that we always had around us. So, we decided to do something to help build a new sense of community, as well as help other veterans do the same. That's when Charlie Foxtrot Brewing was created. We believe that by bringing veterans together through craft beer and helping rebuild that sense of community, we can then help reduce the stress for soldiers transitioning back to civilian life. Charlie Foxtrot Brewing will continue looking for opportunities within the local community, so they can grow together.

Charlie Foxtrot Brewing (CFB) will offer the local community a place where they can gather together to enjoy quality beer and entertainment.
CFB is dedicated to providing a gathering place where bonds of friendship can turn into brotherhood. Our focus being on helping transitioning veterans regain their sense of brotherhood allows us to stand out above the rest.
The city of North Port has a population of approximately 73,000, of which 6,300 are veterans.
