As Orlando-based Craft Beer Company Evolves, So Does its Name

Named for its Flagship Beer, Orange Blossom Pilsner Morphs into the Orange Blossom Brewing Company ORLANDO, FL. – When Orlando native Tom Moench created his award-winning orange blossom honey beer and christened it Orange Blossom Pilsner [OBP], the moniker also seemed like a perfect fit as the company’s name. Now, nine years and 15,000 barrels later, Moench has rebranded as the Orange Blossom Brewing Company. “With all the exciting beers in the pipeline for release it makes no sense for our company to be named after only one of our beers," says Moench, president and founder. “OBP is the ‘flagship beer’ for the company, but as we release more and more beers the name change has become obvious.” Orange Blossom Brewing Co. is also moving its full production to the Brew Hub in Lakeland Fl. This 51,000 square foot state of the art facility will allow OBBC to expand their portfolio as well as their overall production. "Having limited production quantities for so long, we are excited for the growth opportunity," says Moench. Moench, a client of the University of Central Florida’s Business Incubation Program, says the first of several new brews – an American Style IPA named ‘Back in the Day IPA’– is expected to be released in the next few months. The beer aficionado, who brewed his first batch of suds at the age of 18, said some other changes already have been implemented at OBBC.
