In GTA V, Jakey's beer can be found inside Rob's Liquor, 24/7, and Limited Service.
Grand Theft Auto Online
In GTA Online, a J's Lager Beer Hat was to became available through special crates, after the Independence Day Special was installed. However, through a glitch, it and a second hat (Blarneys Stout) became unavailable for pick-up through normal means.

Influence
Jakey's Lager is very likely based on the Australian beer Foster's Lager, which is very similar to Jakey's in name, colours, and logo design. The colour scheme and logo also resemble the Canadian beer Labatt quite closely, so it could be a secondary influence.

Trivia
Grand Theft Auto V
- Floyd Hebert can be seen wearing a Jakey's shirt underneath his jacket.
- The Jakey's logo contains an icon of a red bench which could likely refer to its tagline of being the "benchmark" for all lager.
- The beer Jakey's Lager is based on, Foster's, appears in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas inside bars and is unchanged from the real life brand. This is very likely an oversight by the interior artists for San Andreas.
