Florida Beer Podcast - Episode 127: Dixie Grill and Brewery with Rachel and Jason Matta

It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it sort of location--but, hopefully, not for long! Situated in a former gas station, the Dixie Grill and Brewery opened as the Dixie Grill and Bar along U.S. 1 (Dixie Highway, hence the name) in 2004. The original owners were twins, Richard and Jay Preefer--themselves series restauranteurs. Richard has since passed the business on to his daughter, Rachel, and her husband, Jason Matta--both craft beer afficionados and the driving force behind installing their small but mighty brewing system and transforming the business entirely. We'll speak to the Mattas as they describe the history of taking over the family business, crafting beer, and the expansion currently under construction next door.
