MIAMI BEACH, Fla.—Burger King is opening a restaurant in Miami Beach that will serve beer along with burgers and fries, the chain's first U.S. location with alcohol.

At the Whopper Bar South Beach, guests can pair a Whopper sandwich with Anheuser-Busch and MillerCoors brews. With fries, the combo will run $7.99.

The restaurant will offer outdoor dining, a walk-up window and delivery service.

It's scheduled to open mid-February. The announcement was made Friday.

Morningstar analyst R.J. Hottovy says adding beer at selected locations around the world is part of Miami-based Burger King's effort to reinvent itself as a fast-food restaurant with a sit-down feel.

Hottovy said making the new image resonate could be a challenge in some locations.

Pizza Pizza (a pizza chain here in Canada, not sure if they are in the States?) had a brief period where they served alcohol in store. It seemed to attract old, greasy Europeans who sat and drank in the store all night.

We have a pizza chain called Little Caesar's and the mascot says "Pizza pizza!", maybe related?

Anyway - this is awesome. I enjoy going to Rubios often because it's hard to beat tacos and beer.

I had a couple beers with the King, but that is a whole different story.

It may not be that different. Did you get a burger to go with it?
