When I came to your establishment it was my first experience. I had no idea what to expect when I enter the place. I tried to order to Chedar burgers (revised) (2) but was told they were not available so my wife ordered a pulled pork sandwich and I ordered a knock-off big Mac . When the food arrived the fries had an extremely large amount of salt on them. The salt was visible to the naked eye. I requested they make me another batch of fries. I was told no and offered $3 compensation. Although I paid $1.75 for each order of fries which was two(2). I was adamant that they make another order of fries the cashier said no. A cook came out of the back and said he will make more fries. When the fries arrived they were half the fries that were originally sent to me. I explained there were two orders of fries my wife had to show him the receipt and he brought another order of fries slammed them on the table and said you are welcome. While speaking to other patrons at the establishment the cook and the cashier came out and became confrontational. I disposed of the french fries. Requested a business card from the bartender. I have never been so humiliated in my life that someone will be upset because I ordered at closing time which I had no idea what time the place close when they could have just said we are closing or the kitchen is closed. The staff intentionally gave me salty fries and a salty Burger I appreciate them giving my wife a delicious pulled pork sandwich but the experience that I had was Unforgivable. Please train your employees that business hours are business hours you can't punish your customers for coming in at closing time when the customer has no idea what time you close or it is their first experience at your establishment. On that note I would recommend you not visit the establishment when they are closing. And the employees need to learn not to come out of the back confronting customers while speaking to other patrons. They cannot justify what they served me.

Visited for the first time on a Saturday prior to going to concert a Dailys Place. So glad we went here, as there was a decent selection of beer for all tastes and the brisket sandwich was really good. We arrived around 4:30 and glad we did. We had plenty of time to drink a few and order food. About an hour after we arrived there was a line of about 10-15 people waiting to order beer & food. The place has ample room for a large crowd but food ordering will be difficult if busy as there was only one line for ordering. Will go here every time we visit Dailys Place. Easy 5 minute walk from Dailys Place parking lot.

Small servings. Wings burnt to a crisp.

Congratulations on finding out that McDonald's Big Mac sauce is Thousand Island dressing but your burger is still not worth $11.

Everything is sold separately so your gonna pay more.

There is no sign close to the door posted indicating that you place your order towards the back, & lazy employees don't egknlowlege you to offer guidance even if your sitting at the table lost and confused for 5 minutes. Pay attention. Help people. Your set up isn't normal. Its cool just not normal so help customers.

Food is terrible, wait staff has the *earn my attention* attitude, no fans on the roof in florida, and the final straw last call at 10:30pm on a friday when the bar is packed. Do the owners hate making money?

If you'd like to sweat your nethers off, get crappy food, and leave after your first beer hit this crapper up!

Edit: 30 minutes later still waiting on food only to get cold stuff. The only people that cared was the kitchen staff which remade our fries and pretzels after they came cold.

We went to get a drink at 9:00 pm on Saturday Nov 5th and because they had opened "early" for the Navy v. Norte Dame game they had already closed and weren't serving beer... huge turn off. If you don't want my business on Saturday night at 9pm I don't know when you want my business...

If you are in the area, and have already tried Bold city, this is worth the visit! My advice: get two flights, try all 12 beers. (There are typically 14, but one or two are out or not avail on flight). I just wish the place was a bit more illuminated. Great bartenders, very knowledgeable!

I wanted to like this place. It s a cool building, the layout inside is nice, and the vibe seemed pretty good. Though I was there on a Jaguars game day so it probably isn t usually so rowdy/obnoxious. Another positive is that the food was pretty good! But in the end, this brewery is extremely disappointing because, well, the beer just isn t good! It s astoundingly mediocre, especially for a brewery with a local reputation. The actual quality of the products seems up to the standard, but the quality of the beer is lackluster. Nothing I ve had from them so far has been remarkable. All their canned offerings are bland, as well. Fun place for a few beers with friends but I don t plan on returning.

Nothing amazing to see here, I can see how the locals would appreciate it before a Jax game, but the beer list is fairly generic. I am a bit surprised at the number of high reviews. They have a generic beer for everyone, but nothing to write home about, and brew pubs like this are a dime a dozen. The building layout is nice and a lot of space, food was good (I got the Tempah sandwich), good service, but if you are on the hunt for good beer, I recommend Aardwolf.

Not a good brewery experience. Typically when I go into a brewery I am greeted with a smile and quickly helped, that wasn t the case here. It was not even busy and I sat down at the bar but it took about 5 minutes for someone to come greet me and ask if I ve been helped. Then I asked for a flight and they dropped the flight board in front of me and left. Then ANOTHER employee took my order after another 5 minutes. A lot of miscommunication and poor customer service. Try another brewery like Hyperion or Bold City in the area!!

Intuition has a nice little setup here. The lower level provides the usual taphouse, brewing equipment, and games, while the upper deck provides a patio bar overlooking the street with Everbank Field in the distance. They host a respectable list of beers at reasonable prices. Worth checking out along the ale trail.

Intuition seems to be only a beer brewery BUT NO... I had a big surprise with my 3 boys and my mom... they had life salsa, the best one LPT salsa band and the food is superior. The Philly cheese Stake was soo delicious and the burgers were perfect even the kids meal was super good (I tried them myself all). My kids asked me to take them again to eat there, they sayd "worth to be repeated" and if you see what I feed them THAT is lot to say.

Last night my husband and I were involved in a car accident outside this establishment causing major damage to my front bumper. My husband took a chance and asked Mitch from Intuition if he had anything to help hold the bumper on just to get us home. Mitch took the time to not only find us something but even came out to the car to check on us! Although at the time we were unable to partake in all the brewery had to offer (great atmosphere, clean, friendly people, etc.) we definitely will do so when in the area again. Thanks Mitch at Intuition!

We were big fans of the original location, and the new one is nice too. Their beer selection is pretty good. The location is very central, a great space upstairs and lots of options downstairs. The food was above expectations, very good. Derrick is our favorite bartender

While in JAX I wanted to try one of the many craft beers available in the area. After dinner we drove downtown to try Intuition. It's downtown next to baseball field. If you can't find street parking there's parking behind the brewery. Once you park, walk around to the front of the bar. There's a door on the corner that lets you in. The downstairs bar was nicely done. Wooden table tops and bar stools were easy to find. There were also tables with regular chairs, although those were taken up when we arrived. It wasn't crowded at all until after the baseball game (JAX Jumbo Shrimp). There is also an upstairs bar that has an open air area, but apparently it was pretty full. There was a place to order food and get sodas for the non-drinkers. There is also a counter next to the bar that sells memorabilia and beer to go. I picked up a growler (1/2 gal) for $5 and got it filled for $20. That was after I had sampled some their beers. There was a very good list of beers available on draft (I'll post a pic of the menu). It's kid friendly too. We brought in some Becker's for my boys (7 & 9) but they also had several games next to the memorabilia counter so we played some of those as well. This was a great experience and the beer was really good! This is a must stop for anyone in JAX.

My wife and I had our welcome party here the night before our wedding. The staff at IAW could not have been better to work with! From the early planning, they were always responsive and the prices were very fair (we actually spent less than we budgeted for as far as the draft beers went). The outdoor rooftop is an amazing venue to hold an event and fit everyone comfortably. We decreed to use an outside caterer as IAW recently stopped working with Black Sheet (I think) and the vendor just dropped off the food without setting much of it up. The staff at Intuition actually helped me set it up! They were amazing!

Intuition gives away a confirmed reservation for the Tar Heel alumni game watch with no warning, even though the reservation was confirmed multiple times. From now on I'll drink Budweiser before I'll touch an I10, and I can't stand Bud. You screwed up, Intuition.

Sadly I was only here for an hour and didn't get to fully enjoy myself.
The beer was a nice surprise, having only seen a handful of their brews distributed in stores I was ecstatic to see close to 20 taps with plenty of new options. I had a wonderful imperial IPA and an easy drinking IPL as well. All the samples I tasted I would have loved to have had more but an hour is an hour.
The food menu is somewhat limited, mostly grill items. The $11 burger was well worth it with two patties, cheese, sauce and shredded lettuce. Bun was lightly grilled. I probably should have gotten some fries to go with as the burger was a tad smaller than I was lead to believe.

Recently opened an extension to the main floor bar with an entrance on E Forsyth St. They call it the Bier Hall and it's designed for hosting private parties. They hosted the company holiday party with outside catering and their service was excellent. It was a friendly, open, and laid back atmosphere. Not sure what the room capacity is, but there must have been about 150 employees in attendance and it didn't feel too crowded. There was a stage area and plenty of room for dancing.

Here for a Jags pregame. Waited in line forever for beer and food. It really made hanging out with your crew difficult. They need an electronic system or hire extra staff if needed. Food was cold and not very good. Wild Misunderstanding is the worst beer I've ever tasted. People Pale is great though. The building is great but no desire to come back until they change ordering system and improve food.

One of my favorite breweries in jax. Can't wait till they move downtown. Every Wednesday they have a one off but the regular line up is very good on its own. Some Fridays Community Loaves sells pretzels in the taproom.

Update. They finally made it downtown, and the new facility is great. Slowly opening everything up, but this place is gonna be awesome.

Great spot and building but everything was below average. The bar downstairs struggled to keep up and the shrimp po' boy sandwich $11 for a few fried shrimp on a plain hot dog bun. Everyone raves about this place but I don't get why. Not impressed. Not coming back.

Solid 5 star plus!
Intuition has been one of my favorite Jax breweries since their days on King Street! I was so excited to hear about their move downtown & followed their progress very closely.
Not only do they have great offerings - I10 IPA, Peoples Pale Ale & Jonboat Lager - but they're always brewing up something special!
Location, location, location - theirs is the best! Rooftop bar in the stadium district. Right around the corner from the up & coming Doro district and sharing the same building as Manifest Distilling! That's a recipe for success!
And the house Restaurant is Black Sheep - you can't beat it!
I've attended several special events, tastings, pregame & post game nites here and they're always fantastic!

The building was not hard to find, I love the sign in front of the door as we entered, very unique. I was getting a while different vibe as I walked through the door, the whole room was filled with our fellow yelpers, so that was pretty awesome.

Sitting by the bar, we were offered to try one of the four complimentary beers and obviously I chose the Jon boat since it was the popular choice of the night. Blck Shp's veggies pickles and cheese platter, mini burgers and mac & cheese were great. We all got to fill our stomachs with these delicious appetizers and mingle through the night before starting our official beer tasting experience. My favorite beer of the night was surprisingly the Dark Star (7%ABV), although it was the darkest out of the 4 we tried, yet it was creamy and sweet with a hint of roasted barley.
I enjoyed learning about the different types of beer, what IBU was, the intensity and their alcohol content. I've gained great knowledge of the company after the tour and truly amazed how the company got started.
This tour and beer tasting was part of the yelp event and it complimentary!
