The photo in the article was taken at Wood Foot Brewing in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Yes, that’s a pickleball court with a fabulous mural in the background. On the lawn in front of the brewery patio, a local Trad Jazz helps celebrate Mardi Gras a few days early. This is what works in 2025, at least when the beer is good.
Full disclosure. Last week, Vinepair posted a story about 20 Breweries to Watch in 2025, and I suggested Wood Foot. When Evan Rail asked me to contribute, I gave him a few choices and I mentioned I planned to visit here. I didn’t know it would turn out to be only a few days after the story posted.
Anyway, excellent band and beer. I don’t know how to rate pickleball courts, but I like the mural.
