10 Best Breweries in Bay Harbor Islands

"If you couldn’t guess it, Wynwood Brewing Co. settles in the heart of the Wynwood Arts District. Wynwood Brewing Company was the first craft brewery in the area, founded by Luis Brigoni and his father, who transferred their Puerto-Rican pride into beer. They have award-winning beers Pop’s Porter and La Rubia (blonde ale)."

"The craft beer scene is here in South Florida with the opening of the Miami Brewing Company—the region’s first craft brewery—at Schnebly Redland’s Winery in Homestead. The family-owned operation uses the tropical fruits and flavors..."

"Wakefield consistently serves up some of the best craft brews in the area, direct from its Star Wars-themed brewery and tap room in Miami’s Wynwood neighborhood. El Jefe, a German Hefeweizen brewed with coconut flakes, is a long-time favorite here, but the special releases are gems to keep an eye out for."

"For craft beer nerds, J. Wakefield and Concrete Beach make some of the city’s best local brews. Cocktail enthusiasts will love the speakeasy-like back room at Coyo Taco – you’ll just walk through the door at the back of the restaurant marked “Staff Only” to access the hidden, dimly-lit mezcal lounge."

"If you aren't careful, you could mistake the front of the graffiti-covered J. Wakefield Brewing as just another art installation in the many creative Wynwood Walls. However, this is the tap room you are looking for, complete with Star Wars décor."

"A newer addition to Wynwood’s brewery scene, Veza Sur is the fusion of two very successful breweries, Bogota Beer Company and 10 Barrel Brewing Company. Both a neighborhood hangout and trendy bar, Veza Sur welcomes guests to come and stay for a while with its communal seating, “casa”-like atmosphere, open spaces and even a garden. As for the drinks, visitors can expect house-made craft beers with Latin and American roots, popular micheladas, beer cocktails, and the famous ice-cold Brazilian Chopp lager."

"Located north of Downtown Miami, Veza Sur Brewing Co. stays true to its Latin-American roots, right in the creative Wynwood neighborhood. Veza Sur doesn’t disappoint with creativity either. Recently, they dropped a coffee porter slushy with Twix bars on top."

"With about a dozen specialty beers on tap (plus seasonal selections) and another half-dozen or so microbrews in bottle, Titanic may not have the biggest selection, but there's no arguing that this brewery and restaurant has the most flavorful, carefully crafted beer in town. Brewmaster Jamie Ray whips up at least half of the daily draught offerings, including the evocatively named Boiler Room Nut Brown Ale and Triple Screw light ale, and he keeps receiving national awards for them at competitions where the judges, for the record, never spit. Then there are all the beer-related events -- live blues-and-brews, Mug Club specials, name-that-brewski contests, University of Miami sports nights, Brewmaster dinners, free T-shirt happy hours."

"In 1982 two Florida International University students in their early twenties, Patrick Gleber and Kevin Rusk, helped transform Miami's oldest bar, Tobacco Road, from a decrepit, crime-ridden dive into one of the most popular food and music venues in the county. Then came Fishbone Grille, continuing a tradition of excellent food at a moderate price. So in 1997, when Rusk announced he was going to start a brew pub in Coral Gables, it seemed a recipe for success."

"I’ve mentioned my love of food halls many times here, and finally there is one in Fort Lauderdale!. Sistrunk Marketplace is brand new and has everything I love about food halls – a fun atmosphere, diverse dining options and even its own brewery!. Currently, they are having waiters bring you your food instead of ordering at each stand, and this makes the meal relaxing and easygoing."

"A post shared by SISTRUNK MARKETPLACE & BREWERY (@sistrunkmarketplace). Food halls are all the rage right now, and the favorite in Fort Lauderdale is Sistrunk Marketplace. The combination food hall and arts market is known for its cooking classes, distillery tours and retail boutiques."

"If you read my Where to Eat in Fort Lauderdale post, you’ve already been introduced to Sistrunk Marketplace & Brewery. What you didn’t get to see was the rainbow mural on the building’s exterior!. You know I love a rainbow, so I had to venture back in the day time to capture it!"

"Third-generation brewmaster Rauf Khoffner is reviving his grandfather’s recipes that date back more than 100 years. When not brewing beers honoring the Reinheitsgebot, Khoffner remains true to his German roots. He produces balanced, smooth, drinkable beers with top-notch ingredients."

"Georgie's is the biggest gay bar in the Wilton Manor gay area and probably the most famous. All the gay boys, new and old, will at some stage end up here during the night. What we love about Georgie's is that it has a large outdoor terrace with a small bar, which has a sort of street party feel to it."

"and Georgie’s Alibi Monkey Bar is in sync with the Provincetown vibe. It’s all about the Monkey’s secrets — see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. This restaurant, bar, and nightclub celebrate alternative lifestyles to the max."

"U. N.!!! What a great vibe inside and the servers are very energetic. My favorite part of this place is that you can tell it is a neigh..."

"Most people only come to Rok Brgr for their juicy and outrageous burgers, but also be sure to check out their Sunday brunch. Whoever thought of serving mac and cheese as a breakfast dish is an evil genius and I salute them for it."

"Running through the center of Fort Lauderdale from the Central Business District to Fort Lauderdale Beach, Las Olas Boulevard is a modern thoroughfare packed with one-of-a-kind shops, unique galleries, buzzing restaurants, trendy boutiques, and busy nightclubs.
