The World Cup means watching teams from every corner of the globe🌎 and this Thursday, that includes ours. USA🇺🇸 takes on Türkiye at 10 PM, and we’re staying open late, until midnight, to see it through.

Here at FM, the tournament also means drinking your way through a few corners of the globe too. Beers of the World is our tournament-long lineup, six beers, six countries, all on our menu through the final whistle.

The headliner is Free Kick, a New Zealand Pale Ale brewed with Fonio, an ancient grain with African roots, alongside three New Zealand hops: Nelson Sauvin, Riwaka, and Rakau. Tropical fruit, citrus, a little white wine, a touch of spice. One glass, two continents.

Round out the trip with Wakulla Hefeweizen (Germany), Drift Session Brown Ale (England), Ursa American IPA (USA, obviously), Just a Little Krush Belgian Table Bier (Belgium), and Invasive Species Foreign Extra Stout (Ireland).

Watch the world play. Drink your way around it too. And while you’re at it, grab a World Cup bingo card. A line gets you a free sticker, an X gets you a free pint, and a full blackout gets you a $20 gift card.

Extended hours all week. Swipe for the full lineup. 🌍

Behind every great pint poured at FM, there’s probably a dad who taught someone patience, a good joke, or how to properly tend a grill. 🔥

Happy Father’s Day to the dads of First Magnitude, and to all the dads, stepdads, and father figures in our FM family. Hope today’s easy and the beer’s cold. 🍻

Here’s what’s waiting for you:
🎵 Live music from American Dream Survivors + The Corvids
�🦎 Live reptiles (yes, real ones)�
🔥 Live glass blowing by High Springs artist Corey Green. He’ll be making little glass “profanatee manatees” right in the beer garden�

We got jerseys, we got bingo cards, we got the beer, and we’ve got a giant 16-ft screen. ⚽️🍻

There is no better place to watch this tournament than right here. Cold beer, a beer garden full of people who are locked in, and space to actually breathe when it goes to extra time. This is what a watch party is supposed to feel like.

World Cup bingo cards are in the taproom, and the stakes are real: get a line for a free sticker, hit an X for a free pint, or go full blackout for a $20 gift card. Squares include watching a USA match, trying a Beer of the World, grabbing a 4- or 6-pack to go, and trying our featured Free Kick NZ Pale Ale with Fonio.

This Friday, we’ve got USA vs. Australia at 3 PM with full sound-on watch party mode, and we’re open until 11 PM Tuesday through Saturday. The tournament runs through July 19. You’ve got time to get that blackout.

Matches are streaming during open hours, with food trucks on site every day. Swipe to see this week’s full lineup!

She’s on tap. The merch is drop-ready. Let’s go. 🍺🏳️‍🌈

The First Magnitude Brewing Co. x Pride Community Center Pride Party is this Saturday, June 13th, 3–10 PM rain or shine. Here’s a little preview of what’s waiting for you. 👉

🍺 Meet Fierce Hazy IPA. She commands attention from the first pour. Fresh berries and honeydew on the nose, tangerine and earthy pine in the glass, and a subtle but notably dank finish. A touch more bitter than our typical hazy and every bit as bold as the name suggests.

👕 The new pride merch is here. Rainbow pride tees, tie dye tanks, and in collaboration with Mel 🌼 Earth Tonix Nature Based Wellness, the Fierce Candle. Small batch, hand poured right here in Gainesville, and absolutely worth taking home. Because the party doesn’t have to end when you leave.

Here’s how the day unfolds:

✨ 3–7 PM — Q***r Makers Market with incredible LGBTQ+ artists and makers setting up inside this weekend for a cozy, intimate shopping experience. Featuring:
Chad M Tittle-Marotte gary g. Jenn Maresca | Made by Maresca Nuit Mordu Art & Design Sage Sorcery The Writing Owl 

👑 7:30–9 PM — First DRAG-nitude with Gainesville’s favorite queens Emma Gration🌞 and 𝑰𝑵𝑬𝑹𝑻𝑰𝑨. Weather permitting, under the stars. If the rain has other plans, the queens will be covered. They will not be stopped. Featuring: Aphasia Chancellor ミ★ 𝘔𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘥𝘺 𝘙𝘰𝘴𝘦 ★彡 MARISOL Lana Vandal Chancellor 💋

👏 🪩 9–10 PM — Dance party with DJ SkipTheTrack 🕺🏽 spinning nothing but certified q***r anthems.

🌮 Hungry? , Verde Spice, and Caribbean Spice are on site all day.

Donate $10 or more to the Pride Community Center at the door and get a wristband good for $1 off full pours all day long. Every dollar supports the well-being and visibility of LGBTQ+ people right here in North Central Florida. 🫶

Rain or shine, we’ll be serving looks and cold beer. See you Saturday, queens. 👑🌈
