Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Really cool brewery. On our visit to Miami from Arizona, we decided to spend one of our days brewery hoping and this was one of our stops. This brewery not only had some really good beer, but the art was on point for sure. The staff were really inviting, helpful and super nice. I would highly recommend checking this place out and will most likely return myself when I come back to Miami. Thank you for the neat experience!

Lots of Star Wars art, even a Han Solo frozen in carbonite table. Nice patio, good service and great beer selection. Three other breweries are within walking distance so make sure to check them all out.

Cool space, good beer check it out! Worth a trip especially if you’re a Star Wars fan! Very chill vibe, music is good. They have food truck out front and off the path of main strip.

Recommend J Wakefield, staff was friendly and helpful and beer great. The decor was Star Wars themed but does change since they have murals that do change

Recently we visited this famed MIami Brewery and found that the “hip” vibe that usually accompanied a visit was gone. What was worse was that we brought out-of-towers with us who are BIG IPA fans to try Wakefields famed IPA brew. Don’t get me wrong...the beer was spectacular and Wakefield has most definitely not lost his touch. However, someone took their finger off the pulse of the ambiance. The place felt like a morgue. There was no music...no vibe. A large screen TV was playing a movie that was being watched by 6-8 patrons. The customer service which was always a big part of the staff had deteriorated into a few employees who just wanted to serve your beer and move on. If you are interested in a great beer...this is a good place to go...just expect a very BORING time.

My boyfriend and I were spending the day in Wynwood and stopped in to J. Wakefield Brewing to escape the heat and grab a couple of drinks. The place is air conditioned, self-serve water and clean restrooms. We wanted to try a bunch of the beers, which are brewed right on site, so we ordered 5 oz of a few types each. Our bartender was helpful letting us know the most popular beers and (for my boyfriend) the darkest beers. These were served in cute Star Wars-themed “flight” trays, which matches the trendy superhero/Star Wars decor everywhere. The El Jefe was my favorite, and also apparently their most popular. Seems popular with locals and tourists alike. You can also purchase some select cans and large bottles to go. Would highly recommend stopping here on a hot day while exploring Wynwood!

So where does one start with a joint like J. Wakefield? I ask because this was a place which, no matter what, you are gonna remember for the artwork. Granted, I’d only been there once, and the beer was good, yet the details elude me because the artwork and motif, not to mention the graffiti lacing the entire neighborhood, are what register in my brain. That is not a knock. It just is.
That being said, the beer was tasty. Something fruity, as I recall. And the atmosphere was casual and laidback. Star Wars art, though. That’s the thing. And it is, for the record, awesome.

The beers at this brewery are pretty good. However, they refused to put a saison into a crowler for us because they were almost out of it, which didn't make my husband happy (you brew it to sell it, right?!). There was a cool Star Wars street art outside, and some outdoor picnic tables. It seems many of the breweries in this neighborhood have games and such to play, but this one lacked that (unless I just didn't see them). There was less seating here, and a smaller place. It wasn't a bad experience, but after a day of hopping around the neighborhood breweries, this was my least favorite.

This is the brewery that started my love for craft beers. I'm in love with their 'have you seen my stapler?' My close friends and boyfriend are huge beer lovers and I never understood their fascination with breweries until J. Wakefield. There's plenty of seating inside and out. I love the food truck outside. We tend to be there for hours on end and we eventually need a bite to eat. The decor is great- they have star wars themed murals. The staff is really helpful too. I tell them what i'm in the mood for and their recommendations are always delicious.

While this brewery is famous for sour beer, I actually find their stouts to be much better. The Star Wars and general Science Fiction theme gives them an interesting flair.
