Another popular micro brewery that has sprouted up in Charlotte over the last few years, sugar creek brewing offers multiple decent beers. On my recent (and only) visit I had the pleasure of trying their Cherry barleywine beer (not % on the name but something like that) which was not only delicious but boasted an impressive 10.2% alcohol content. Dont know how much it was because someone else was buying my drinks (shout-out Kevin!) but two glasses was enough to invigorate me enough to give the nearby Queens Park Social (2 stars) another shot despite writing a relatively negative review earlier in the night. Atmosphere was interesting; there was live music (two guys, one on acoustic guitar the other on a steel pedal guitar similar to the one played by "Double D" on the hit cartoon "Ed, Edd, and Eddy"), and the TV's played music videos from different eras.
There is a section on the side of SCB well lit with beautiful stringed lights. I recommend sitting out there if it's night and balmy. I'd go back.
