The location of the brewery throws the first time visitor a little off, but from there it adds to the environment. The "Tap Room" has a great vibe to it, only explainable by visiting in person. Everyone there, including the patrons, are friendly and willing to converse. Their beer selection is unparalleled, and very friendly on the wallet. In fact their 23 oz glass of their primo is about the same price, if not less, than a regular glass of bluemoon (or similar) at any other place. The food cant be beat either, for $5 you get a fresh angus burger with two sides cooked to order. The entire operation is family run, and has an overall welcoming feel to it. As posted below they trust you to keep your tab, and my first time there I was treated with a full sample platter (not the skimpy kind you get at big establishments that you usually are charged for). If you are bored one weekend afternoon and looking for a low key, welcoming place to have pint I would recommend no other place!

Had the pleasure to purchase a six pack of Dukes cold nose brown ale at my local ABC Liquors in Tampa. Must admit that what caught my attention was the picture of the Boxer ("Duke") on the can, as an owner of a boxer (Swayze, born on the day his namesake died!) it appealed to me and I thought I might as well try it and if the beer sucked the can would be nice to keep. Turned out it was the best brown ale I have ever tasted! No joke, the balance and taste are excellent. Then when I found out it was brewed in my home State of Florida, double plus! Keep up the great work brewing! I look forward to trying your other brews as well. Sorry to hear about Dukes passing. Ill post a picture of my boxer with a can of Dukes maybe we can start a great advertising campaign..."Show me your Boxer"..."Got Boxer".

This was the first brewery I went to when I moved into the suburbs of Jacksonville and I wish I would have gone to any of the other ones for my first time. All of bold citys beers were ok. There wasnt anything about any of the beers that stood out to me. The flavors are mild and the texture was light. Ive tried their killer whale cream ale, manatee IPA, red ale, apricot wheat and their brown ale. If you havent been here I would give it a try. Beer tastes are all an opinion and this brewery was not for me. There is ample room for large groups and the tap room is really nice. There is normally always a food truck around.

This is my favorite hangout. From the outside I was like..in there? we are going to a warehouse? and i opened the door and was smacked in the face with the smell of fresh brewed beer and the vibe was amazing! The staff is so friendly and decor was soo relaxing. They have board games to play while your hanging out..its just an amazing place. I love that you can sample all the beers if you have never been there before for free and decide on your favorite before ordering and the Growler prices are the best in town!

Thursday, 2/4/10: Go right now and get Vernons Gumbo: Excellent and fresh rye bread. The beers are Great. Say "Hi" to Susan, the Mother of the brewmaster and one of the owners, Robin, the brewmasters wife an Kevin, son of Susan. It is a family affair. The food, small menu, inexpensive prices is superb. Friday is Shrimp Bisque, Saturday, Chile. Only open Thursday-Saturday 4-late. Sunday, you can refill, yes refill your gallon jugs for their beer, all brewed in-house. Tell them Michael recommended them.

My favorite local Brewery! They trust you to run a tab like youve known them for years. They provide free snacks and have games to play with friends or strangers. The prices are great! You feel like one of the family. The beer is diverse and flavorfull. They really care about making a good beer above all else. You can tour their brewery, but their hours are limited. They are a true representation and what I love best about Jacksonville.

Bold City is a pretty awesome place to drink. They have indoor and outdoor seating, though the outdoor is somewhat limited. They indoor "pub" is a mix between a traditional pub and European cafe. The grill doesnt open until 4, so lunch is not an option. (Im not sure if they would allow outside food.) In my opinion, their best beers make up their rotating list and the prices are the best in town. PLEASE CAN THE 1901!

Such a friendly family and a cozy atmosphere and although I personally dont drink beer this place is my husbands favorite brewery. No matter what restaurant we go to he asks if they have Bold City Beers and he keeps 1/2 a keg of various brews in his kegerator at all times. Find out when theyre having their annual anniversary party for some great music, great beers and a good time. Thanks Bold City Family!!!!!

Excellent, freshly brewed beer, at an awesome price, in an awesome place; I just love the location. Dukes Cold Nose Brown Ale is my favorite...I even bought the Dukes t-shirt just to show my appreciation. I highly recommend a visit if youve never been - tell them youre a Bold City virgin and you will get a sampler of all of their offerings. You will not regret it.

Good selection or local craft beer. They have a indoor bar and some outside area. Frequently have live music, family friendly events, and even yoga on Thursdays. They usually release a little something special on Thursday nights also. Friendly people. Families welcome and even have popsicles for the kids. Great environment, casual atmosphere. They also fill growlers.

I tried their beer right at the beginning about 3+ years ago when they first started, 4 different styles and the first thing I thought was how all similar they tasted. Well here we are 4 years or so later and they all still taste the same, obviously they cant figure it out but still a notch better than River City BP, the sorriest in Jax.

Fun, local brewery with a friendly family atmosohere. The beer is good and they feature seasonal brews and special casts throughout the year. My go to beer of theirs is 1901. They also offer burgers, bbq and veggie burgers on site. When you go to bold city youre guaranteed to have a good time.

We were looking for the art district but ended up in this small yet cozy loungy beer brewery. The first flight is freeeeeeee and even though Im not a beer drinker, I have a favorite one. Big Johns Apricot Wheat. Come and try their beers!

Good beer to choose from with good variety. There are plenty of activities to do, with a very comfortable and relaxing tap room to enjoy the local beers from. Staff is also very polite and knowledgeable on what they have available.

If youre looking for the best beer brewed in town, this is the place to be. Make sure you check the hours for the tap room so you can get an inside look at the brewery and try some of the best freshest beer at even better prices.

Cool little place with great atmosphere for just hanging out and drinking great beer, last Saturday when I was there they had someone grilling chicken. Im getting ready to head up there again right now!
