Single beer cans

Coming on a cruise, walking around the main area. Looking to get a can of local beer as a souvenir. Drinking it there, keeping can. Seems like waterfront brewery is the best / only brewery that’s local that cans beer? Please correct me if I’m wrong. In any case, is there a spot I can pick up a single can to drink there, or to go, of local beer? Thx!

You're right that the Waterfront Brewery is one of the best local spots in Key West for grabbing a can of local beer, as they do offer their own canned beers. Waterfront Brewery is a popular choice for both drinking on-site and taking home a can, making it an excellent spot for a souvenir beer.

If you're looking to enjoy a local beer while walking around the main area, there are a couple of options to consider:

  • Waterfront Brewery – As you mentioned, this brewery is one of the few in Key West that cans their beer, and you can definitely buy a can of their local brew to drink there or take it to go. They have a relaxed, waterfront vibe with great food, and you can choose from a variety of local craft beers on tap and in cans. It’s a perfect place to relax while enjoying a local brew.
  • Key West Brewing Company – Another great local brewery, although they primarily sell bottled beers rather than cans. They are located near the center of town, so you could pick up a local beer from them and take it with you. While they may not offer a single can, they do offer a variety of craft beers that represent Key West.
  • Fisherman's Wharf – While it’s not a brewery, they offer a selection of local craft beers, including cans. You can grab a beer here and take it with you to enjoy as you walk around the historic waterfront area. They also sell local beers for souvenirs.

If you're specifically looking for a single can to enjoy while walking around, Waterfront Brewery is likely your best bet for a local beer, as they offer both on-site drinking and to-go cans. The other breweries mostly sell bottled beer, but they still offer a good selection of local options.

Most of the shops and bars along the main street in Key West also sell local craft beer in cans, so if you’re walking around, you can check out places like Green Parrot Bar or Sloppy Joe's, which often carry local beers like Key West Brewing Company or Islamorada Brewing in cans.

Enjoy your time in Key West and happy beer hunting!
