This really is a great place to go. Beer and food are great. But the lighting? Incredible. Some of the best ambient lighting I've ever seen. 10/10 read more

This place is such a hidden gem.. I live right up the road from here and it's a great brewery to get a variety that suits everyones pallets. It's also a dog friendly so I bring my little girl with me. The staff is very friendly and the lighting is off the chart. They have a cute little courtyard that you can hang out in when it's not raining. They also have a food truck that comes by here that is delicious. Everyone is super chill and friendly. Highly recommend this brewery. I will say it looks abandoned from the outside, but it's a thriving business. Come check it out. read more

Cool spot! Came for a thrift exchange in their back room and had a good time. I was doing dry January so I got a Mexican cola (so yummy)! The workers are nice and it seems they have a good amount of events here. read more

It's been a while since I've been to Aardwolf, but it's just as great as I remember it! I love the exposed brick interior, comfy large booths, and huge selection of beers. The Weizenwolf is my current new fav beer! I crushed a couple on draft and the to-go cans were also just as tasty. To me its the perfect beer- full body flavor but light and refreshing. Man I could go for one right now as I write this... read more

Still hits every time I come here. I love the outdoor area (outside of summer) and the beer is always delicious. I had their Hazy IPA this go around and it was fantastic. Always love doing a pitstop here because it never disappoints read more

A cool brewery in Jacksonville. Got to visit this spot for a friend's wedding rehearsal dinner. They had a private space in the back that they had tables set up and were able to bring in food to feed everyone. We were able to order drinks at the bar and put it on the tab for the back room. We got to try some of their beers including the hazy IPA (always a fav of mine) and "the lightest beer ya got" which was actually a high percentage. Both were so good! The setup of the brewery is really nice with some seating outside and a lot of seating inside, as well. I loved how pet friendly this brewery was with all the doggos around. The service was fast and friendly. Loved coming here to help celebrate our friends before their big day! read more

Amazing space and would be so fun on a summer night outside with a large patio area and pool inside. Dark and dive-y on the inside gives the brewery the ominous vibes the name portrays. I got a flight with 2 pilot beers - lemon lime sour and creamsicle IPA and the Jax water and the hazy ipa. The best out of the 4 was the lemon lime sour. The rest had a weird aftertaste, but understandable with the flavorings. I purchased a 4pk and didn't see a canning date- unsure if it was old or a bad batch but there was zero carbonation, very yeasty and fell very flat. I ended up throwing away 3 of the 4. I'd go for the drafts but would be wary of the cans read more

First off, they do have a parking lot in back, otherwise you can street park. The entrance was tricky to find, but it was dark and raining. This was one of my favorite breweries in the area, both due to the beers as well as the vibe. While they do have TVs, it is more of an intimate setting, but there's also tables for larger groups. read more

Great place to go for more than many beers available, yet have an outstanding choice, ok for families too. Nice customers, great service, Large area outside seating too. Only slight downside when I was there was the noise level, but when I went for first time with my wife it was very crowded, yet everyone got a seat. read more

great service. good selection. well run and very clean facility. Only down side is food truck needs upgrade with better quality cook. Outside food allowed. Meeting / event room. read more

I absolutely enjoyed this brewery! Usually when I hit a brewery there is at least 1 beer in my flight that I don't like. This place had tons of great beers. The espresso aard-tini and the san marco sour were my two favorites. I actually came to this brewery twice on my week long vacation to Jacksonville. The merch is cool and they have a big selection. There is plenty of outdoor seating as well as some tables inside. read more

Nothing bad to say on this visit. It's been over 5 years since my first and only other time here. I came today specifically for the Pride ESB, with $1 of each pint going to Equality Florida - First Coast Community to kick off Pride month. Way to go guys! The ESB is a great version of this style. You rarely find a brewery making this, so if it's available, give it a shot. The Hop Oddity was a very good, if light, West Coast IPA. They nailed the hoppiness pretty well. On my previous visit, I noted that the sours and darks were the strength here. It appears that hasn't changed. I think this place deserves a visit regardless of your taste in beer. And if you're here when the Chancho King food truck is on premise, you have to try the Choripan. Simply divine read more

Aardwolf Brewing has been around for a while and is one of our favorite local breweries. We come here every so often to check out their seasonal brews and the fun themes that they decorate the main area. There isn't really a set schedule of when they redecorate but they always announce when they re-theme the area on social media. The staff is always nice and welcoming. They have a nice a variety of brews such as tasty IPA and some very good stouts along with a variety of sours and non-alcoholic beverages. There's a large game room in the back along with 2 other rooms for small gatherings. The only complaint I have is that the rooms, other than the main room, tend to be echo-y so it's hard to have a private conversation. I would definitely recommend visiting this brewery and ordering a flight to sample what they have to offer. read more

The brewmaster here certainly knows what they're doing! First visit, and I ordered a flight so that I could sample some of their creations. They had a nine year release, the Wallonian Waffle, that was crazy awesome, high octane, and slightly sweet with the essence of blueberries and maple syrup. Also, really enjoyed their Belgian Dubbel and WC IPA. This brewery sits right next to the railroad tracks, has a limited amount of gravel parking space, and has both inside capacity and a small outside area. No food, but a food truck available depending on the night. Directly across the street there is also a Mexican restaurant, Panera, bread, and an ice cream parlor. read more

Needed to kill a little time in tha San Marco area and decided to stop in for a few beers. Despite a good crowd the noise level was low enough that I was able to carry a conversation. The bartender made sure that our glasses never ran dry. read more

I can't say much about the food here, due to the fact I haven't had it, however I can say the service was extremely friendly and the ambiance was perfect. It's nice and dark inside providing comfort and the perfect amount of personal space. They have an extensive selection of beers, ciders and wine too. I ordered San Marco sour beer which is 6% and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you Aardwold Brewing Co! read more

A large selection of beer to choose from! Staff were super nice, giving us some cold brew to enjoy. Popular spot to watch football with a food truck available. read more

This past Friday I spent 4-5 hours at Aardwolf as my friends held their wedding ceremony/reception here. This was my second visit and the staff was friendly and quick. I wasn't in charge of the wedding but it seemed that everything went perfectly. I'm happy for that level of caring and effort from staff for my friends sake. I am not the biggest beer fan, but I liked the dessert tasting Remarkable Ok. This beer packed a punch, which is likely why after one I was happy. Another tasty beer to note was the Hostile Witness. The brewery was open to the public but the ambiance was great. Wedding guests had fun and I got to mingle with regular patrons as well. In my one prior visit, I sat outside and enjoyed the ambiance as well. This is a fun local brewery and definitely worth a visit. read more

Good beer. Nice folks behind the bar. Dont expect a full pour. 16oz is not 16 oz. The rating is based on the beer. Only. read more

This is a cool brewery with neat things on the walls and a wide selection of beers! Their building is confusing how it's laid out. What appears to be the front of the brewery is not and you have to walk around to the side to get in. We almost thought they were closed!! The beer was super tasty though and the staff were helpful when choosing beers. read more

Overall, it's highly recommended to visit and try a flight of their offerings. read more

Always a great place to stop and have a beer I talked to bartender about one sign they have in the bar. It will be on this review. If aardwolf had this sign on the back and their logo on the front as a small emblem, they would sell those shirts out in a day or 2. Good choices for beer, nice outdoor seating with a food trailer outside read more

Frequent visitor of aardwolf and I love the selection they offer. They have a great outdoor sitting area along with a a permanent food cart by chancho king. They often will do special events and themed weeks and it's just so fun. Space prom in July is a personal favorite. They have a great selection of beers and their stouts are lovely. Give them a go. read more

This was our first time here and it was a very cool vibe. They had kegs decorated as lights and disco balls. Their garden is also pet friendly. Their beer selection is fairly large and the staff was happy to help us. read more

If you're in the #jacksonville area, passing through, or looking for a roadtrip, then #aardwolfbrewery has got to be on your list! The location is #dopeaf with a great outdoor patio area and an indoor that makes you feel like you've walked into some sort of secret lair. The decor & ambiance is great and there are definitely other rooms to explore, but honestly, grab a seat at the end of the bar and just take it all in. The beers here are all #fiyah from the draught selections to the btls, cans, and pks! If your a beer nerd who knows your stuff, you will feel at home, if your a craft beer newb, then #buckleupbuttercup cuz you just went straight to the big leagues! I enjoyed everything I had and I especially had fun w/the bar staff who seemed a little dry & salty at first, but once you crack a cynical joke, you're golden! I went with a flight to dabble in the beer greatness I saw on both boards, and had I had more time I would have imbibed on more. Any way you drink it, this place is a great stop on anyone's beer journey! read more

I love the vibe here! There is a beautiful large outdoor area with picnic tables and spaces around the trees to sit and tables to hold you beer! You could go inside, especially on a hot day, enjoy the AC and nice decor. There is bar seating, high tops and booths available. The list of beers are up on the wall and the staff is so friendly and knowledgeable to help you pick the perfect beer. You could do a flight or grab a full glass. I went with the San Marco Sour. It was perfect after a day walking around the area! read more

How have I not visited Aardwolf before? Tucked in to the San Marco urban landscape is a very "Florida" brewery that offers local and unique beers on tap and bottled. You can choose to sit outside in their spacious patio with your canine companion or sit inside in the main area. There is a bar to order from and the chalkboard with their latest offerings. I was surprised by how unlike a "bar" this was. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to offer recommendations based on our preferences. I also appreciated their method of opening a tab and the broad range of prices on the items, so if you're on a tight budget, you can still enjoy an evening with friends at Aardwolf. read more

Our sober driver was drinking a root beer with a label from a different brewery (the previous one we were at) and the bartender got mad but did not say anything to us (like ask that he not drink that here ) when he (our sober driver) went to the bathroom the bartender poured the drink out without any explanation when another person in our party asked why the bartender poured the drink out the bartender did not answer but flipped out and over escalated the situation by swearing and saying we had to leave We listened and went to our car but he followed us into the parking lot yelling, swearing, and even threatening us. There was a 2nd bartender that also came out and at first it seemed like they were preventing confrontation and trying to hold the bartender back but then did nothing and a 3rd bartender that had no involvement in the situation until they started yelling in the parking lot read more

I stopped in to Aardwolf Brewing Company around 8:30pm on a Thursday night. I was immediately impressed by the welcoming and cozy outdoor space. The tasting room was huge! It was nice to see after a previous place I visited downtown. They had an awesome selection. I started with the DuvALTbier, which was the perfect German Brown Lager, as described in the menu. I like Belgian beers, so I also tried the Belgian Pale Ale. I wasn't disappointed there, either! Overall, very good experience. read more

Great selection of beers & seltzer. Anyone can find something they enjoy. Set along the train tracks, but has a little outdoor oasis with a food truck at night. Kid-& dog-friendly. Plenty of seating & parking. read more

My husband and I decided to have a date day (not just a date night) so we thought we would check out some places in San Marc. I have been to Aardwolf before but I am so glad we came back! The selection is great but the bartenders are amazing! I generally like all beers except basic Bud Light (sorry not sorry) so I asked for a flight! I am so glad I got the flight because Aardwolf does have the most beers on tap but they do have a lit of good beers on tap! Also really enjoyed the atmosphere, it was laid back and very open but not excessively loud. They do allow dogs outside and there is plenty of outdoor seating. There is also a food truck on location if you are hungry, which we were! Aardwolf is not close to where I live but I would make a trip just to grab a beer (or 3) there. read more

While visiting our daughter in Jacksonville after being displaced from hurricane Milton, we decided to try this out. No food on site but excellent beers and a great funky vibe. We each got flights with different selections so we could try out most of their beers. When we come back here, will definitely be visiting again. read more

We are blessed with a number of great breweries in Jacksonville, and Aardwolf is near the top of the list. I've never had a bad time here, whether on a random Friday night or at one of their special events. The beer is always excellent, they usually have a fun food truck (Chancho King, Pie95, etc), and there's plenty of space inside and outside to set up with a group. They have a really diverse selection of beers, but they are especially strong in dark beers and sours (and serve up some absolute bangers, like the El Mariachi or one of the foeder aged sours.) I have one beer snob friend from out of town -- he always wants to come here when he visits, and he always checks a bag at the airport so he can take some of the Aardwolf large format bottles home with him. Prices are excellent. If I had a gripe, the bar could be a little more organized in terms of its ordertaking at busy times. (I think the orders are supposed to come in at either end of the bar, but it devolves into a free for all.) it's also not the best place if you're wanting to watch sports, since the TV coverage is minimal. read more

Hubby and I checked out Aardwolf Brewing last Friday night and loved it. Awesome location and wonderful selection of brews. The parking lot right behind the building is very convenient. The outdoor patio is gorgeous with the cafe lights strung up. The little food truck sounds amazing but we only stopped by for one beer. The inside is beautiful as well. The exposed brick, industrial decor and lighting work so well together. I just love the vibe in there! I tried one of the San Marco sours on the menu. The strawberry lemon cake - very lemony, fruity and fresh tasting. Hubby ordered the notorious F.I.G per my recommendation. He really liked this one. It was a little bitter for my liking but still a nice flavor profile. We saw a couple eating V pizza from across the street, genius! We will definitely be returning with that plan in mind. I also can't wait to come back and sit in the outside patio area when the weather cools down. read more

My brewery visits have been on the lighter side lately, but Aardwolf has more than made up for it. The location is a repurposed tile distributor, so the locations outside is eclectic, to say the least, and one of the brewmasters has a story to go along with the location being an old tile factory. This evening my choice was their Hop Oddity weighing in at 5.8% ABV. read more
