Adam PalmerJanuary 31, 2015Come at happy hour for deals on draught beer and selected food. A good value place to go before a Heat game with the arena just a few blocks away
The DRB has blessed us all with "Bottomless Craft Draft Fridays." $20 is your ticket to try out as many featured drafts from 5pm-2am. Get there early as it gets packed after 9pm!
ccFebruary 2, 2012Dieu du Ciel? Hell yeah! This place has such an incredible selection of beer. The food is awesome (jalapeno poppers! truffle oil french fries!). Great staff. Yay DRB!
Raisa MndzApril 10, 2013Come for an unpretentious good time. Amazing beer selection. This is a very chill spot. Come to hang out and talk to friends. My kind of spot
Amy SnyderMay 10, 2014On Friday night there is a $20 Craft Draft special. Be careful though because it is not any draft beer you want. There is a list posted on the TV and it rotates every hour.
SpikeFebruary 7, 2013A small place with a suds menu that is outragously huge. A great place to go if you are a real deal beer drinker.
Rudxandra AguiarSeptember 6, 2011The blueberry beer its sooo blueberry!!! And it's soooo goood! And also if ur up for a palate challenge there's the MUSTARD beer , very mustardy and I like it !!
Downtown MiamiSeptember 13, 2013Growing the Future of our City (GFC). Air duct, wheat grass, water. on September 20-22 from 5pm to 5am. For more information, please visit
Miami New TimesDecember 9, 2010Best Beer Place - The beer menu is deep at 400 brews in house at any given time. And the menu is updated weekly, offering frequent surprises.
Dulce HolderbyMay 12, 2013Great service, my friend wanted bacon on her dessert n they did it. Renamed the dessert the Ashley
With over 100 beers available from around the world, this is one of Miami's coolest underground spots. Be glad you know about it... Many don't. ;)
Nate SwitzerJanuary 5, 2012Great appetizers and an obscene beer menu. Wish I had a place like this back home. Monty Python Holy Grail Ale!!!!
The Democratic Republic Of Beer celebrates 2 Years of Independence on October 15th, 2011. $20 All-U-Can Drink Drafts All night Long!
LiLLyJanuary 2, 2012Great food, large variety of brewsky & its a great lil spot in downtown...glad I know I now! :-)
Mike FraiettaDecember 23, 2011Super chill. Bring your date, indulge and watch wild videos on the TV.
Savannah AltvaterOctober 22, 2010Get the St. Ambroise Apricot beer from Canada. If you love fruity wheat beers, you're in for a treat.
MazdaNovember 8, 2010You can truly "drink around the world" here with their incredible menu of beers.
Angie sFebruary 17, 2012The tacos are horrible but the jalapeño poppers are awesome! Try the kasteem Rouge.
LianetteDecember 2, 2010Good service, nice cold beers (any) and great ambiance... I will return soon!!!
The Beef Sliders are awesome!!! Plus they have a HUGE beer selection and they're open till 5'am!
Get the jalep poppers and tostones and the arepas! Delish!!!!!!!!! I'm slightly addicted
Luisman RodrAugust 9, 2014This place was being remodeled a few days ago. I think it closed for good. Did if not!?
alesh houdekOctober 31, 2010500 beers in bottles, ONE on tap. But it's Southern Tier double IPA, so all good.
Be dareing, let the beer master choose for you that's what I always do, and I'm never disappointed
Cesar ValenciaSeptember 29, 2010Try the wings and try to get them half and half, surprisingly good!!!
Melissa AinslieMay 29, 2010If you like spicy food, get the Jalea! It's absolutely amazing! For reals!
Try the Schneider & Brooklyner Hopfen Weisse. Best beer ever.
Kevin NewsumDecember 3, 2009you can be spendy or creative here: my money's on creative. choose something you can't get elsewhere- The DRB is serving SUNDAY BRUNCH beginning on May 1st.
Steve DaleApril 24, 2011ok, there is a shit ton of beers on the menu... but they lost me with 3 flat screens showing CNN and sports (boring) and a shitty, muffled soundsystem. I'd visit again, but not compelled to.
ElizabethFebruary 4, 2011If you need to eat & are in something of a hurry, this is not the place for you. Service is sloooww because they're: packed, understaffed, inefficient - take your pick.

"Although the table layout wasn’t great, the place itself is cute, has great views of Downtown, and has an overall chill vibe with music. I’d consider it maybe more of a restaurant than a bar/lounge."

"CURRY! Love the pineapples in sweet chili side and the avovado garnish. Brilliant."
