70 AMBIANCE 5/5 SERVICE 5/10 SELECTION 10/15 FOOD N/A VALUE N/A OVERALL 15/20 markwise (157) North of Tampa, Florida | April 16, 2012 To say that this place is in the middle of nowhere is a misnomer. It is west of the middle of nowhere. The place looks like (and is) an upscale winery that also makes beers. They just invested in a system to brew their own beers, and they have some interesting ideas. Every beer has fruit in it, and in some cases it is a wonderful thought. I especially liked the Coconut Starfruit Blonde. The place is full of wine people, except Dave, who was very knowledgeable and very open about the winery and what they are working on. I would go back and try their new stuff every chance I got, if I was a local. Beautiful grounds and incredible ambiance. | 74 AMBIANCE 5/5 SERVICE 8/10 SELECTION 9/15 FOOD N/A VALUE N/A OVERALL 15/20 Beershine (593) The Sunshine State, Florida | March 18, 2012 This place is wonderful. It’s not far from Coral Castle, but of course feels like the middle of nowhere. Which is wonderful. We took 304th to get here and it becomes a dirt road! We don’t have many dirt roads in South Florida! The winery is surrounded by farms--well, duh, it is a farm. The facility is built as a giant oasis, with lots of trees. Their water-scaping is sweet, they even have a waterfall that must be ten feet high. The place is huge and set up for large events, so would be great for a birthday, wedding or beer festival. Outdoor seating under giant tiki huts makes it perfect in all weather. The beers were contract brewed but they have done so well they bought a large system and have just brewed their first batch on premises. It’s only going to get better. The servers were knowledgable. The beers are much better than expected. Because they are showcasing their own fruit, the beers taste very natural. The wines are fun too. Avocado wine! Drinking fruit beer and fruit wine from the farm that grows it is very special. It really makes me appreciate Homestead to visit here. |
