    I don't think the Watermelon Jolly Rancher Berliner could've been anymore on point.

    Amazingly, I heard J Wakefield wasn't too crowded, yet I went to MIA and it was completely packed. Guess I made the wrong decision.

    Yellow Dragon Berliner was stupid good. Very excited for the opening of this taproom; I will be here all the time.

    Soft Opening Weekend 2: Some fantastic beers on draft.

    Hazelnut Coffee and Watermelon Berliner were slammin' home runs for me. DDT was in rare form and Sherry Vinegar-Cherry was surprisingly tasty.

    You really have to hand it to them - their taplists have been really impressive since they've opened. I'm very optimistic about their OG club, and I hope they start offering exclusive growler fills for members.

    Edit: Lychee Rose Water Berliner sounds crazy, and I may just copy that idea and brew my own.

    Does anyone in the area know if Wakefield will stay open from now on? I'll be in the area in a few weeks.

    Oh, and would babies be allowed? Any growlers for non OG members (curse my not buying in)?

    My understanding is he'll be open weekends (Fri-Sat) until his grand opening in mid-Feb. Not sure about babies being allowed, but no growlers are being filled at this time.

    Was there from 5-7 Friday evening, saw a couple with a baby didn't seem to be an issue. Very happy for JW and crew, the watermelon jolly rancher berliner is outstanding.

    Looks like JW is crushing it so far with the opening. After the long wait, I'm very excited and jealous of you guys who ponied up for the membership.

    Guessing the website will be up when the grand opening happens in Feb ? I tried to check it out but was a no go. Also is the OG membership closed or still open ? Thanks !!
