Jeff Mulligan: Great craft beer tap selection. Does flights. Has some small food choices.
Matt Trogdon: fantastic selection of local, national, international craft beer.
D F: Terrific selection of craft beers. As a cudo to the place I couldn't find Bud (#facepalm). No food though so BYOSnack :) (they actually sell it)
Matthew T: Beautiful place to hang out with tasty microbrews & a food truck out front. This is a dog & family friendly place, there are often several young kids around.
Jordan Groseclose: Amazing local brewery with an amazing atmosphere.
Michael M: Comfortable seating, wide variety of beers to try with new ones coming on"steam" frequently. Buy their outstanding design tshirts to show your friends your excellent taste in locally brewed beer.
Carlos M: My favorite brewery in the Triangle. Make sure to order scoops of snacks with your beer
Marion: I honestly don't think you can go wrong with anything they have on tap, but my favourite is still the Scottish Ale
AU Gnomeboy: Nice variety of beers, several levels of great outdoor seating, adequate indoor seating, food trucks, nearby restaurants.

Molly Bagby: Great beer selection! Try the pumpkin cocktail while in season!!!
Maxie Hipps-Figgs: Great little bar and cool atmosphere.
Happiness Rugumamu: Great beer selection but they carry other items as well(ciders, bloody Mary mix, etc); a chill spot; they are very knowledgeable; and Dog friendly:-)
Jim Meckstroth: Great family venue, good parking and traffic management. Especially like the Bull City Brewery inside the ballpark and Angus Barn Steak Sandwiches.
Dennis O'Dell: On Thursday nights, hotdogs, fries, and popcorn are a buck. Couple that with a dollar per refill bottomless drink cup, and you have dinner for under $5.00. Great stuff.
Bill Kirst: Free Wireless in the Ballpark! Bring your iPhone or iTouch.
Michael Erana: Sit on the patio and catch a Durham Bulls game. Support a local brewery and buy yourself a beer at non-stadium pricing.
David Foley, Jr.: Great salads, bar food, and craft beer... and on the night I went, all drafts were $2.50!
Ryan Imperio: This place is a MUST when visiting Durham. Everything is AMAZING! Try the Hummingbird cake.
