Ed's Place is cool. A neighborhood spot definitely, and they have some delicious beer. I stopped in the other day, mid-October, grabbed a "Kind Beer" a high gravity beer and sat outside at the picnic tables enjoying this tasty brew and the Charlotte Fall weather. The "Kind Beer" was inexpensive and very kind, with a taste similar to Sierra Nevada, but with much more of a punch.
My friend and I made this our first stop on a little trek I like to call "The Bike Bar Crawl" which basically consists of bars I can ride my beach cruiser to, Ed's Place was stop numero uno. Keep your eyes open for stop 2 and see if you can connect the dots....
P.S. it might be in reverse.
