Orchid Island Brewery is a small family owned & operated company based out of Vero Beach, FL. OIB has built a reputation for incorporating local Indian River citrus into IPA's and sour beers. Mixing a global view and a local knowledge, the brewery has allowed us to follow an affinity since our first beer was brewed in 2008. Along the way came the home brew shops, the beer competitions, the friends and the bottle share parties, going Pro, the good and the bad, the collaboration trips, and the stokedness. The town of Orchid Island and Indian River County originated around the citrus industry. The area is widely recognized as a region that grows the planet's best citrus. During winter months when citrus is in its peak harvest, cold snaps sweeten the citrus. If it freezes, it spoils however. What makes Orchid Island unique is its proximity to the ocean and the Indian River lagoon. During the worst winter cold fronts, the ocean and river have a warming affect on the island that keeps the fruit above freezing. The combination of OIB's geography and climate are what lend to a deep sense of place.

Star Ruby 8% ABV

Indian River Imperial IPA

The pinnacle of Indian River Citrus and our flagship brew. Sweeter than grapefruits grown anywhere in the world. Ruby Reds act like a prism, radiating flavor through this crisp Imperial IPA, glistening with juicy flavor, intertwined with our hops blend, painstakingly chosen to match citrus at the molecular level.

The land surrounding the Indian River’s watershed unique composition doesn’t just layer this fabled story with a tropical backdrop, but adds immense depth to the profile of flavors. Ancient reefs and mollusk beds, now deeply buried coquina limestone, constantly feed the roots of mature citrus trees calcium and magnesium, forcing a high natural sugar densisty and thus significantly higher Brix ratio.

These limestone formations only exist east of the atlantic coastal ridge and it is through the luck of maritime history & geology that these groves would be planted above. Alongside the extreme humidity, intense sun, rain & salt exposure help push this transformation even further; resulting in famously thin skin and a rich, complex sweetness with tightly packed, juice heavy segments.

Experience why our Grove to Glass method results in the freshest & finest citrus infused b**r Florida can squeeze.

You won’t find the Rangpur Lime in the local produce aisle despite commercial production in Florida since its import from Bangladesh in the late 1800s.

Technically a Mandarin x Citron hybrid, the Rangpur exists in the same culinary space as a lemon or lime; a strong sour presence but with layers of complex and satisfying flavors invoking a spectrum of citrus profiles. We use a variety of processes to extract that flavor, leaving the bitterness behind, resulting in dry peel, sweet syrup and our recently developed liquid zest distillate.
