The Original Hog's Breath Saloon was established in Ft. Walton Beach, FL, in 1976.
It was the brain child of Jerry Dorminy, a Birmingham, Alabama expatriate who left the mountains for the sun and fun of the gulf coast of Florida. The first order of business was to organize a watering hole where he and his friends could hang out at night after a full day of sailing or fishing. It immediately became the place where all the local watermen and women partied long after dark and on weekends. Since the military had large training installations in the area, it didn't take long for them to discover "The Breath" too. The logo was worked up with a local screen printer and the saying, "Hog's breath is better than no breath at all" is a modified version of a saying Jerry's grandmother used to say, "Bad breath is better than no breath at all." The rest is history. Located in downtown destin - 850.837.0644Source: Hog's Breath
