PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. — A Palm Harbor brewery has announced it has halted production in order to help prepare for Hurricane Dorian.
Flying Boat Brewing Company made the announcement on Facebook, adding it has started to fill its tank with drinkable water. The brewing company says it is trying to combat water problems after the storm makes landfall.
"Let's hope the storm doesn't hit and we all stay safe," the brewery posted.
