J. Wakefield (2019)

Arrived later then expected on Sunday.

Ended up here and really enjoyed it. being from the NY area I stayed away from the EQ and Magnify as both i have had pretty regularily and i live close to magnify.

The brewery was smaller than i expected, the crowd there are great and to be honest the staff was super nice and talkative, i really enjoyed my experience.

Had both a Miami Madness and Cuvee along with a few tasters of other beers. I loved Miami madness, to be honest if that was readily avaiable I would drink it all of the time..how high of atrade value am i looking at?

The food truck also was delicious. Unfortunatly my time was short so i walked around a bit got coffee and back to my hotel. no to Go but ill be looking on the trade forum for sure for his stuff now.

 

Glad you enjoyed your time in Wynwood...Madness usually trades at around 50-60$ value...

 

There is tap42

 

Thanks man, didn't realize there was one in Coral Cables. Been to the one in Midtown for a work thing. Wasn't great, but wasn't bad either.

 

Does J Wakefield still have an onsite only bottle list? I thought I saw one on their site a few weeks ago but am not finding it now.

 

Here now, pretty sure they don't have an onsite list at the moment other than the draft list.

 

Ah shoot, I wonder what happened to it.

 

I've only been coming here for the last 7 months, but the onsite consumption list being offered was a rarity during that time not a norm. I think I've only seen it a couple times.

 

Oh ok, thanks for the info.

 

Just JWB culling bottles from the cellar I'd wager...he used to have a yearly sale instead...

 

Around $420 for VIP Wakefest tickets with taxes and fees. You’re almost begging people to resell their bottles at the price point. I can bitch but I did shell out for it...

 

If only they were 750ml still.... Then I'd imagine the flippers would have a real chance

 

Struck out huge on VIP, wonder if any bottles will make it to the GA release...

 

The majority will. You might be able to snag a few big poppa variants if you’re lucky but those will go to the first few GA. I snagged a Tape Rock from GA last year

 

How does one strike out small on vip?

 

You get the ticket but the website screws up and won't let you get bottles?

 

Hmm... I dunno. Getting a ticket didn't seem like a strike out.

 

Hi there! Haven’t been in the US for a while and now I’m in Miami till Friday. Looking into NEIPAs and sours. Was wondering when would it be better to go to J Wakefield to find cans to bring back home. Is the can list usually up to date?

What other shelfies would you recommend? I’m thinking on visiting boxelder and union beer store. Sadly can’t go as far as Doral.

Thanks!

 

Their website and untappd are usually up to date. They have plenty on tap but only TD rings and Traquilo y Tropical (both sours) in cans to go. You should find some decent cans from Boxelder and UBS. Check out Mendez Fuel (not too far from UBS) on Untappd for their tap list which is 100% crowler fills to go only and they have bottles/cans too.

Looks like today would be a good day for Mendez...3 Civil Society ipa's plus 3 Sons IPA and a sour from Parish and Hidden Springs
