Bottling an 'Island State of Mind': FAU Business Alumni and Co-founders of Islamorada Beverages
A shared love of sun, sand, fishing and good beer led a trio of FAU College of Business alumni to brew up the idea for Islamorada Beverages. The Islamorada Beer Company, its original name, was born during weekend fishing trips to the Keys in the mid-2000s. Conversations about needing a lighter craft beer to complement their tropical “fun-in-the-sun” lifestyle turned FAU college friends Tyrone Bradley ’08, ’13, Chris Trentine ’05 and Whitney Trentine ’07, along with their friend, Nik Schroth, into business partners.
