Concrete Beach Brewery

Concrete Beach Brewery welcomes their off-centered co-workers from Delaware’s Dogfish Head Craft Brewery to begin an ongoing residency at their Wynwood-based Social Hall.

When Juliana Barazza – general manager of Concrete Beach Brewery and native to Colombia – thinks of summer, she thinks of Mango Biche – a typical Colombian snack where unripe green mangos are served with salt, lime and pepper.

This summer, Concrete Beach Brewery is putting those mangos to use by bringing back its coveted Mango Gose for a second year.

Inspired by both Miami’s prevalent and colorful Cuban culture and the rich brewing history of Vienna style lagers in Cuba, Concrete Beach Brewery is excited to release Havana Lager, a suave lager with a beautiful sunburst-orange hue and foamy white head.

Wynwood’s Concrete Beach Brewery has released two Social Hall tested, fan approved beers in package – TangeRica and Más Hops will be available at your local grocery and liquor store beginning March 6.

Inspired by New Orleans’ vibrant heritage, Concrete Beach Brewery is releasing Miami Gras, a French-style Saison that fuses the eclectic cocktail culture of Bourbon Street and the culmination of diverse communities that come alive during the season of Carnaval in Miami.

Concrete Beach Brewery is releasing a specialty craft beer for ONE DAY ONLY! The non-alcoholic beer (intended for your four-legged friend) is called Woof Wort and is brewed with ingredients your pup is guaranteed to love including beef stock and bacon. Patrons who purchase a beer at Concrete Beach on January 22, will receive a complimentary Woof Wort for their pup!

When Concrete Beach Brewery opened up its annual What Brews You competition for creative beer flavors, Erik Durr of Virginia Gardens had a hunch his idea of combining tropical fruits with a saison, one of his favorite beer styles, would be tasty, and he was right. The idea caught the attention of the brewing team and his Guava Lychee Saison was chosen as this year’s winner. It will be available for the first time at the Social Hall and select bars across Miami starting in mid-November.

On November 5th, Concrete Beach Brewery is taking the party to the streets! Literally. In celebration of its newest beer launch, Deck the Walls, the Wynwood-based brewery is shutting down 24th Street between NW 5th and NW 2nd, for an old fashioned block party, and everyone is invited. From 1:00 to 6:00 p.m., party goers can sip on craft beer, munch on a variety of tasty bites from local food trucks, shake what their mommas gave ‘em to the beats of Electric Kif and Afrobeta, and watch a live painting competition.

Boston Beer Company, the country’s second-largest craft beer producer, recently helped Carnival, the world’s largest cruise ship operator, build a floating microbrewery on-board its new Carnival Vista vessel. In a press statement, Carnival said it worked with Alchemy & Science, Boston Beer’s wholly-owned subsidiary incubator, to launch version 2.0 of its Key West-inspired bar, the Red Frog Pub, which will now also feature a small brewery.

If you ask Alan Newman what it’s like to build a craft brewery in Miami, expect to hear a few expletives. Newman, the president of Alchemy & Science — a craft beer incubator and wholly-owned subsidiary of Boston Beer — has been trying to pry open the doors to Concrete Beach Brewery for nearly 18 months but the company, Newman said, has encountered a myriad of confusing permitting and zoning regulations along the way.
