Latest reviews from Miami
| 50 /100 50 SW 12TH STREET “a hotel bar with 4 beers on tap (Stella, Michelob Ultra, Bud Light and Goose Island IPA - easy to choose which one to drink) and a few cans/bottles with no real specialties“ |
| 42 /100 MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT TERMINAL J12 “a typical airport bar located in South Terminal, Concourse J, near gate J12; they have 4 beers on tap: Modelo Especial, Bud Light Corona(surprise-surprise!) and Dogfish 60 mins IPA (this was a real surprise in the light of the 3 others) being no other places to drink a beer in concourse J, needs to be visited if your flight departs from this concourse of the airport“ |
| 62 /100 Black Market Bayside (Bar) 401 BISCAYNE BLVD UNIT 225-N “Large (sport-)bar with 8 beers on tap (3 macro lagers: Modelo, Bud light and Stella and 5 craft beers from local breweries), worth visiting before or after having a boat tour in Miami“ |
| 82 /100 42 NE 25TH ST “Tropical athmosphere brewpub with their own beers on tap and several bottles/cans, as well; worth visiting“ |
| 80 /100 55 NW 25TH ST “Great caribean-cuban-style brewpub with 15 of their own beers on tap and a few bottles/cans, as well“ |
| 82 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Great ambiance, wide selection of their own beers on tap and in cans“ |
| 86 /100 Kush Wynwood (Bar) 2003 NORTH MIAMI AVENUE “Plenty of taps with craft beers and quite a few bottles, as well; operates in an old building with great and really special atmosphere; worth visiting“ |
| 80 /100 Batch Gastropub (Restaurant) 30 SW 12TH STREET “Quite good place with 14 beers on tap and several bottles“ |
| 72 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “A great spot with outdoor seating and a great selection of beers. You can do flights and you can buy beers to go (plastic cups) they have lots of great choices and I liked every beer I tried even their sour.“ |
| 74 /100 42 NE 25TH ST “Huge place in Wynwood, walking distance from Kush and other breweries in the area. Great open tropical vibe, as the name suggests. Heineken sunk a lot of money into this place. Beer is all just above average and pleasant. Food menu looked good--Cuban focus--but didn't try anything. Flights available. Busy on a Sunday afternoon.“ |
| 70 /100 1588 NW 7TH ST, “Kind of an odd place right by the stadium. I can imagine this place makes most of its money on game days. Was a little empty on a Sunday afternoon. Like its name suggests, kind of a dark place inside, though there is patio seating outside. A fair amount of beers but none that are super good. Kind of average tasting for the most part. Service is friendly enough.“ |
| 68 /100 7360 SW 41 ST “Passing thru the Miami metro, chose this spot as a brief stopover. Parking options are horrible because of where it's situated, in a semi-industrial space behind a strip mall. We felt hurried so we wouldn't get towed. Definitely a unique vibe ... part hipster, part quirky graffiti art, part who knows what. The bartenders were friendly and helpful, quick to service. The beer list was varied and sturdy, and the ones we tried were pretty good. Would've liked more time to check it out. Give yourself time to get in and out if you're not in the area for long. Brewery #940.“ |
| 70 /100 Milam’s Market (Grocery Store) 5767 SW 40TH ST “Review specifically for Red/Bird location (SW 40th St.). Milam's is a nice local grocery store, carrying high end products and specialty items without being pretentious--a remarkable feat. Staff at this location are excellent, but keep in mind this is not a beer store. About a month ago, this branch did hire a new beer manager and the selection just about tripled. Very happy to see this! Now you can get a variety of Dade County craft beer here. Nothing elite or limited release but they have some JLB, Beat Culture, etc. just mostly flagships. Still nothing in SW Dade that can hold a candle to Sunset Liquors in terms of variety but so nice to have this as an option, as it is closer to home.“ |
| 74 /100 701 S MIAMI AVE, UNIT 412A “Kind of a strange new addition to the Miami beer scene. This place is owned by Boon Rawd, a Thai macrobrewery that makes Singha etc. They have this Thai restaurant with a brewery that makes their own stuff, some from recipes from Thailand and some home based, as far as I can tell. Food is pretty good -- AKA great for regular standards, kind of slightly above average in terms of Thai places. Great open air mall patio. Cool décor. Service kind of hit or miss - we were in late and the server was wasted. They had also run out of basically everything.“ |
| 86 /100 Sunset Corners (Beer Store) 8701 SUNSET DR “This place is a beer museum. Lots of old and discontinued beer to be found. Excellent selection, if you have the time to go hunting. Service was friendly. Good stop if you're in Miami.“ |
| 92 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Smallish footprint in Wymwood. Cozy, with a friendly staff. Very solid selection of outstanding beer on draft and to-go. No food, so eat before you show up!“ |
| 82 /100 5100 NW 72ND AVE A-1 “Big open space place in western Miami. Nice line up of beers, which are mostly above average with a few real gems. Food was great too – I had the gouda burger. Flights or 4oz pours available on everything. Service friendly enough. I can see this place being popular outside of quarantine-light times when I was there.“ |
| 68 /100 7250 NW 11TH ST “Dark place that seems to have little to do with what I was expecting – some sort of Jack Kerouac themed place. Just really a brewery with a few pictures on the wall and a lack of real character. Seems like it was built in an old Dennys and painted all black – in the parking lot of a cheap hotel. Beer is just ok. Dark stuff was decent, the rest most average.“ |
| 78 /100 4178 SW 74TH CT “Nice place down an alley by a motorcycle repair shop. Open and airy. Was pretty empty when I was here post quarantine times, but people were friendly. Lots of good beer here, all available in 4oz pours. Prices are definitely on the high side here – so much that I likely wouldn’t be eager to go back.“ |
| 84 /100 4178 SW 74TH CT “Bright airy space. You see it when you're getting off the Palmetto and it's deep in an industrial park, but it's still a nice space.I can walk there so that's like mega bonus points - nobody walks anywhere in Miami. I found the service attentive and solid. What I really liked was the beer. They understand how to do malts...and that shows especially in the IPAs and the lagers. Then the sours and wild ales are complex and balanced. To me, this is right now the best brewery in South Florida.“ |
| 76 /100 Kush Wynwood (Bar) 2003 NORTH MIAMI AVENUE “Smallish bar / restaurant, which was very busy and noisy on the Friday evening that we visited. Service was good. Tap list was decent and the house beer that I tried was good. Food was very good, had the Reuben and the Employee Dinner salad. More worth visiting for the food than the beer but worth a look.“ |
| 84 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Cool taproom with a Star Wars-y vibe in the heart of Wynwood. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of beers on. Flights available. Liked most the beers we tried, particularly liked the Gourdita imperial pumpkin ale. No food. Bit expensive. Still well worth a visit.“ |
| 100 /100 The Union Beer Store (Beer Store) 1547 SW 8TH ST, “One of the two must go to craft beer bars in Miami. A great selection of beer and an awesome staff.“ |
| 70 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Having read other reviews, I was ready to be blown away by J. Wakefield. Maybe my expectations were too high, or their beer list just didn't agree with my taste. In any case I wasn't terribly impressed.
I tried one of their fruit-flavored Berliner Weisse beers and an "orange dreamsicle" sour, both of which I thought played entirely on one super-puckery extremely sour note without letting any other flavors come out. The Resilience IPA was severely unbalanced even for a West Coast style. The boysenberry braggot may have been good -- I don't know how to appraise that sort of drink, which is a long way from beer -- but it was like brandy mixed with fruit juice. The Tank Tops saison was the best of the bunch for my taste, a peppery farmhouse with a nice undertone of orange-peel bitterness.
At any rate, if you visit, be prepared for some challenging styles, and to drink a lot of beers (beverages) at 12% or above!“ |
| 78 /100 55 NW 25TH ST “Macro terraza, muy amplia y llena de sofás, el interior, abierto de par en par, es una barra muy larga, bastante espectacular y que luce mucho, al fondo la fábrica dividida por una cristalera gigante, estéticamente está muy cuidado el detalle. 15 surtidores, aquí tiramos de Sour, porque anteriormente en el mercado de Wynwood probamos su Guava Sour y estaba brutalísima, pues la Lolo Sour estaba genial pero la Pim Pam Pom Pomegranate Sour desprendía un hedor a diacetilo que tiraba para atrás, una lástima porque dudaba entre esa o alguno de los varios estilos que tenían con mango… La food track que tienen en la puerta, no se si era comida colombiana o venezolana, pero tenía muy buena pinta.“ |
| 86 /100 Kush Wynwood (Bar) 2003 NORTH MIAMI AVENUE “Local muy rallante. Se divide en dos, el primero y principal es un restaurante, con burgers de buena calidad, ¡ah! ¡Tienen cocodrilo rebozado de entrante! Tanto el interior como el exterior son pequeños y están decorados con grafitis tipo comic, dedicados al Capitán Kush, que no he podido leer de que va su historia, pero por lo que vi es un superhéroe amante de la marihuana, mola mucho el rollo. 17 surtidores con birras top, durante nuestra estancia, Sixpoint, J. Wakefield, Collective Arts, Captain Lawrence, Tampa Bay... El segundo local es un zulillo, con rollete cubano y con tres mesas para jugar al dominó, donde puedes ir a tirar de nevera, hay unas 50 referencias de gama muy alta, el recelo nos pudo y nos apretamos una CBS en formato 750ml, como el primer local es pequeño, también utilizan este añexo para que esperes tu mesa y poder comer en el Kush. Muy atentos en el servicio. Un garito de los auténticos.“ |
| 96 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Esto es otro nivel, J. Wakefield están en lo más alto a nivel mundial elaborando Berliner Weisse y Sour, juegan otra liga. Durante nuestra estancia en Miami nuestras visitas fueron innumerables. El local es mediano en su interior, y la verdad es que las barricas convertidas en taburetes no son muy cómodas, la terraza tampoco es muy grande pero está bien, la decoración es 100% de la guerra de las galaxias y mola mucho, así que si eres fan te gustará incluso más. En cuanto a la birra... esta peña manda muchísimo… unos 20 surtidores aproximadamente, cervezas como la Nice Kicks, Space odditty, Nuzzle, What’s in a name, Meet me halfway, A long Time Ago, I Believe in a thing called stout… son cervezas elaboradas al otro lado de la pared de los surtidores y son auténticos trallazos con un nivel de complejidad y frescura fuera de serie, difícil de explicar con palabras. También se dispone de una nevera con cervezas propias y colaboraciones, unidades limitadas, como todo lo que elaboran estos magos, que cuentan con una clientela consolidada y experta que van pasando a cuenta gotas y acaban con las existencias en tiempos record, de hecho le pregunté por su mítica Berliner Weisse de fruta del Dragón, número uno en Ratebeer del estilo y me dijeron que la última vez que la elaboraron, la peña acampó en la calle para poder llevársela a casa, ya está todo dicho. Los días de más gente tienen un sistema rotativo de comida en el exterior, cada día una foodtrack diferente. Todo un referente.“ |
| 88 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Top Brewery in Wynwood. 15 eigene Taps. Dazu leckere Empenadas. Hier ist ein Besuch Pflicht. Sehr netter Barstuff.“ |
| 66 /100 55 NW 25TH ST “Very lively place good list of beers on..Very noisy...“ |
| 72 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Great place to visit ..it was a little busy on a Saturday Afternoon..El Jefe was my favourate tipple..“ |
| 88 /100 55 NW 25TH ST “Schöne Brauerei. Viel Platz im Freien. Peruanisches Essen vom Foodtruck bis 1 am! Sehr lecker. Ca 15 eigene Taps. Lohnt sich. Sehr nette und schnelle Bedienungen!“ |
| 86 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “went here to pick up the Wakefest bottles, and couldn't not stop into this taproom, since wakefest is currently one of my favorite breweries !
the service was friendly, but perhaps a bit hasty. I can give them a freecard for that, regarding the fact they have this big fest coming up, they must be stressing like hell. The taplist was pretty extensive, and contained some cool beers ( pecans are forever is NOT a good breakfast, BTW ) , they also do flights for the more basic stuff ( which was surprisingly less great than expected, knowing only their raved-about beers, but still more than decent ! ) the prices were OK. To go ( in the brewpub ) there was only 1 bottle ( a sour ), or 4-packs of cans ( no singles ) of regular beers. There were shirts, but barely any left ( again, at this time, i can understand that ) . The interior is nice, not compeltely my style, but nicely done for sure. We met Jonathan himself, who kindly shared 2 great beers with us. Overall, as a place, this might not be thé place to go. As a Brewery, i would still recomend it very much though. And with all the other stuff going on in Florida right now, you can righteously say a combination of stops like this, is well worth an ( international ) trip !“ |
| 66 /100 Batch Gastropub (Restaurant) 30 SW 12TH STREET “Large Gastro pub restruant very busy. It has a half decent beer list on ..it is a little echoey and noisy though..“ |
| 78 /100 The Union Beer Store (Beer Store) 1547 SW 8TH ST, “Really cool place in the heart of Little Havana. Listed here as a bottle shop, it’s really more of a bar. Small place, with maybe 5-6 tables. 20 or so taps, with some very good stuff on there, including J. Wakefield stuff and some other cool Floridian micros. Flights of 4 available - mine came to about $15, typical for Miami. Very friendly service. This was a highlight in Miami’s starved craft beer scene.“ |
| 68 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Located in a trendy neighbourhood that was packed on a Saturday night, the tasting room is very beautiful, with Star Wars artwork all over the walls. Just over a dozen tap when I went, with 5 oz pours of anything on tap. Prices are beyond absurd, ranging from $3 / 5 oz for the basic stuff (hef, amber and brown) and $4-7 / 5 oz for some of the fruited sours. Beer quality was frankly not overly impressive - everything we had was decent to good, with nothing better than that. Even the highly priced fruited berliners that were on tap were kind of lacklustre. Service was friendly. Maybe I happened upon a less worthy taplist, or maybe they are just overhyped. Either way, it was just a solid stop.“ |
| 80 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Had a great time here. Lots of taps, beer is very good. Pretty pricey, even for sample sizes - pretty much a buck an ounce for most things in the sample size level. I mean, they have a fucken kolsch on today for $5 for a 5-oz pour. But whatever.“ |
| 72 /100 7360 SW 41 ST “Large space, including loft and back patio; mixed decour; 13 own beers on tap when I visited; harried bartenders including the first one I have seen wearing Tinder shirt...; WiFi supposedly here but did not work; no food on premises but there was a trailer behind with decent if limited fare; 5oz pours available between 2.50-4.50; average to good beer.“ |
| 82 /100 7360 SW 41 ST “This is my current favorite South Florida brewery and place to drink. Their taps rotate regularly, with new offerings almost every week. Without fail a friendly vibe, very Miami. Food comes from a rotating truck out back. Often there are guest taps but at times their house brew list is long enough to fill all the taps. They do fabulous, creative collaboration brews with known and emerging breweries. Currently they make the house beer Captain Kush for the Lokal restaurant in the Grove. Beers range from sours to smoked beers to light lagers and imperial stouts. Beers are mostly hit, the seasonals are the most interesting and unique. The location is perfect for me, it is walking distance from mom's house. Family friendly, especially during the day and on the back patio. Easy access of the Palmetto. Their live music program is incredible. Nothing but good to say, so grateful to have them in the area, there is nothing else like this around.“ |
| 88 /100 The Union Beer Store (Beer Store) 1547 SW 8TH ST, “This is a pretty cool place with a pro-wrestling theme. Bartenders are extremely friendly, as are the regulars. Beer selection is solid on draught and complemented by a number of bottles for there or to go. Also there is pretty good Mexican food in the back. Good vibes. Good place. Would recommend. They also have a secret stash with super rare bottles, which are not for sale, but may be broken out for shares or trades.“ |
| 68 /100 55 NW 25TH ST “This is an AB InBev venture with 10 Barrel and Bogota Beer Company teaming up to make a Hispanic brewery. The beers were mediocre. The brewery was pretty nice, but still provided some hints that it was not true craft. Service was fine, but the beers were not worth it. Dog friendly.“ |
| 88 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “If the beers weren't enough, and they are, the amazing Wynwood area plus the paintings in Wakefield make this the only must stop in Miami. Amazing time.“ |
| 68 /100 Batch Gastropub (Restaurant) 30 SW 12TH STREET “Stayed at a hotel near by. Patio out front, with seating inside for meals, and a football shaped bar around the taps. Service was pretty good, my bar maid was not super knowledgeable about their products, but she was quite nice. My burger was fantastic, and the food by it self is worth the visit. Beer was a little high, but I went by at happy hour (3-8) which was half off. They have their own beer called Batch Black Barrel, which based on rate beer rules does not seem to be rateable. Small samples of drafts if asked for. WiFi password does not seem to work. I would come back.“ |
| 70 /100 55 NW 25TH ST “Decent addition to the Wynwood beer scene. Similar to Concrete Beach but slightly less classy. Beers are ok, though I picked only the most promising of the bunch. Flights of 4 are $10. Big patio, as to be expected in Miami.“ |
| 86 /100 120 NW 24TH STREET “Great taproom with great selection of JWB beers, no guests when I visited. Of course you can do flights of 4 or single pour of 5oz. Nice design, outdoor and indoor seating with wynwood vide around you. Take out beer cans in 4 packs, and 1-2 single bomber bottles. Great place, don’t miss.“ |
| 80 /100 The Union Beer Store (Beer Store) 1547 SW 8TH ST, “Calle Ocho is modernizing, and with that comes places like The Union. Great tap list, and several fridges full of takeaway bottles and cans. Could have done some shopping here, that's for sure. Proper nerd spot, in an area that a few years ago you'd never think would ever have a beer bar.“ |
| 74 /100 7360 SW 41 ST “Good spot - perfect location for my regular family visits. They have a small selection of house brews, and a fun selection of guest taps. It's got a brewery vibe, but I like the space. Apparently fun vibe in the evenings and good music, too.“ |
