Headed to Barbados on Friday(subtle brag) and have layovers at DFW and MIA. Any recs on where to track down my best options at either of these airports? I combed untappd but didn't see much as far as variety.

Thanks and

There's not a lot at DFW, but as much as you might not like the food, TGIF's has a surprisingly good draft selection (for an airport bar).

Nothing great, but several quality beers including some Saint Arnold.

There's a Thai place across from TGIF. I was there 2 weeks ago. Best beers in the airport I believe. Had Obsidian Stout on Nitro. TGIF may have good stuff but I didn't check. From what I read and saw personally, it's Ling & Louie's. Gate A13. Right when you go down the escalator from the air tran thing. TGIF is also right there.
That's my rec.
No idea about Miami

Google would be a good place to start.

I'll keep an eye out next time I'm going through.

I can't remember the last time I was in the A terminal.

DFW probably has Great Raft since they are an East Texas brewery. I believe its the official beer of Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys.

I had a 1.5-2 hour lay over so I hopped on the air tran just to go there. I typically don't go into A either when I'm there.
Food is decent too. I ordered the Pad Thai and couldn't finish all of it. Huge portions.

i had a Harpoon IPA at TGIF a couple of months ago. Best i can do.

Barcuterie in the B terminal at IAH has Hopadillo IPA if you ever go thru there.

MIA I've got no clue, but DFW if you have enough time head over to the international terminal Terminal D. There's a ton of restaurants/bars around D20-30 and I think I remember seeing signs outside most of them with decent craft beer selections. I think I went to the Gas Monkey Bar and Grill and it was good (D31).

I had a 3 hour layover in Miami last year. Can not remember the name of the place we ate, but I do remember they had a decent craft beer list. Which was desperately needed after drinking Carib for a week straight.

Not much help, but at least you know there is an option.

Should be able to get some Cigar City offerings somewhere at MIA. Jai Alai is obviously excellent t. Dogfish Head and Bells are widely available in that part of Florida as well.

DFW is undergoing major renovations. There are some decent options. There's Cantina Loredo at D24. There's Papadeaux Seafood somewhere in A terminal - you gotta go down an escalator, kinda hard to find.

At MIA pony up to one of the Islander Bars. They've got some Green Flash and other usual suspects.

Does this mean it is available after the end of the regular season?

Occasionally. It will also make you choke.
