Miami's newest specialty beer and wine lounge "The Goose" - Coconut Grove’s Beer & Wine Lounge

 

Miami's newest specialty beer and wine lounge is now opened just next to the Coco Walk in Coconut Grove. The Goose will feature a rotating beer menu and an astounding wine list by the glass. This Neighborhood hang out will cater to those wanting to drink unique micro brews and taste wines from all over the world at a great price.

 

Coconut Grove's Newest Watering Hole

This article was written by David Minsky for Short Order | The Miami New Times Food Blog

Now here’s a place where the worlds of booze-pounding college apes and hot moms converge: The Goose Lounge, a new bar that will feature a rotating microbrew and wine menu, just opened in Coconut Grove.

The beer menu has 60+ microbrews from all over the world, as well as 12 beers on tap including Bell’s Oberon Ale and Stone Ruination IPA.

Some of the bottles on the beer menu are Wells Banana Bread Ale, Belhaven Scottish Ale, Hazed and Infused, and some (semi)local favorites like Cigar City Guava Grove and Swamp Ape IPA.
The wine, which is sold by the glass, is a rotating list of six red and six white wines imported from Argentina, Chile, New Zealand and South Africa.

Oh yeah, don’t forget about rice wine: sake. Stand by for sake-slinging madness straight up or as a mixer.

Saturday’s grand opening party also features some music put on by Deep Roots with Jean P Jam, but The Goose will host live bands every Thursday and Friday, and even hosting aspiring musicians for open-mic Monday.

On the outside, The Goose blends into the backdrop of the Grove commercial sector. The inside: purple ceiling ducts and decorated olive green walls with murals that resemble Basquiat paintings (that’s a good thing), a long wooden bar, a makeshift stage and a pool table buried in the back corner.
Tapas like yuca fries, ceviche, pulled pork sliders and meat n’ cheese platters will be served to satisfy the urge to forage.
