They have a design up on their Facebook/Twitter page.

I believe it will be in one of the former frozen yogurt store fronts.

I pitched in for a t-shirt. : )

It's going to be located at the old Tasti-D-Lite space in Five Points, 1024 Park Street right next to Sun Ray.

Thanks for pitching in Bill!

Will there be tea? Need more high quality tea shops in Jax...

Bencrix, we're not looking to carry any tea - we'll focus on craft espresso, craft beer, craft sodas, and wine.

Ben, thank you good sir.

Ah, saw the chaos of renovations while walking to the Sun-Ray Sunday evening.  Nice location.

So is the beer only going to be canned beer? I'll grant you there's a a lot of good canned craft beer, but that seems to limit what you can offer. No drafts?

I'm not associated w/ Brew, nor do I speak for them, but from what I understand they are going to have a small amount of select (seasonal?) drafts. The focus is cans, though.

How late are they going to be open?  Since they're serving alcohol I would think they might operate until midnight or 2.  It would be nice to have an option for coffee and espresso after Starbucks and Bold Bean have closed down at 10PM.  I'm sure the nurses and doctors from St. Vincent's might appreciate it as well.

Are they aiming for a cafe experience, or a more bar-like ambiance?

Very excited about Brew 5pts! Sounds like an original idea and I love that they reached out to the community to help fund it. I am definitely contributing.
