| - The second stop on our NoDa neighborhood brew tour adventure, this place had the best beer overall in my opinion, as far as variety, and actual flavor. They had a lot of beers on tap and several imperial versions of their ales. My favorites were the imperial Coco Loco (porter) and the Imperial Pumpkin (I think it was called Drop Dead Gorgeous?). Flights were a little pricier here, $7 for four 4oz samples. Pints were about $5.
One really interesting flavor was the Tart beer, which was apparently a Berlin-style Weis beer. I was expecting a wheat but this was anything but. It was interesting, super-tart, a sample was good, but I probably couldn't drink a pint of it. The pale ale was really hoppy, almost an IPA, I liked it though.
This place was not as popular as the other local breweries among my group (mostly light beer drinkers), the brews we got here were very strong and had a lot of flavor. I personally liked it the most, but if you are into lighter styles some of their options may not be as enjoyable.
