Women are quickly carving out their own space within the traditionally male beer scene. Nowhere is this more evident than at A Little Madness Brewing Company. This female-owned Pensacola destination adds a lot to the area’s already thriving brewery collection. Its quirky, yet laid-back atmosphere appeals greatly to visitors in the mood for something a bit different.
Sustainability is clearly a big deal at this brewery. The term is even included in the motto: “Quality, sustainability, and community.” To this end, the geniuses behind the amazing beers emphasize local ingredients when available, as well as eco-friendly brewing techniques. Freshness is also a priority. Hence, all seasonal beers feature recent fruits, rather than relying on products from the past season.
Beer is the obvious focus, given this establishment’s brewery status. That being said, a few other drinks can also be enjoyed. If you’re not in the mood for a cold one, check out the small selection of wine and canned cocktails. Juice boxes and soft drinks are also available.
The menu here may be decidedly limited, but the few pizzas offered are tasty enough that you really don’t need any other options. Every pizza comes with hand-tossed dough and a housemade red or white sauce. With a small additional charge, pizzas can be made on a healthy cauliflower crust.
Whether you stick with beer, try the pizza, or treat yourself to fine wine, you’ll appreciate the laid-back atmosphere at this brewery. It attracts plenty of regulars, granting it a neighborhood appeal in which all visitors feel like instant friends. The space may be sparingly decorated, but it has an open feel that appeals to many brewery lovers.
