    St. Patrick's Day- green beer!
    Danni D.

    Awesome beer, great people, good vibes always. They host tons of events throughout the year, weeknight trivia, run club and more!

    This brewery is located in small section in a neighborhood. I has the feeling of a neighborhood hang out. There was adequate parking and they had a food truck on the street on this Saturday. There is some outdoor seating as well as indoor. The lady working the bar was very friendly and asked if we lived nearby, what we were up to,etc... very personable. We had a flight of beers here as well. Unfortunately, only one was in the flavor range that we liked, but still a fun place to try a few different beers.

    They make a great mimosa!

    We love this brewery! They have a wide selection of beers and ciders, and they make a great mimosa! Seating is both inside and outside, and they always have a food truck (a different one every day) if you are looking for something to eat with your drink. Dog-friendly, and there are always lots of pooches (they provide water bowls!). The staff is always friendly - this is one of our favorite places to kick back and have a fun time!

    I wish I lived a little closer, because this would definitely be a regular spot for us! I'm jealous of the people that live in the neighborhood right next to the brewery, and can walk to it! We went on an unseasonably warm Saturday in January so the garage doors were all up, which meant plenty of seating inside and out! They were able to quickly put the doors down when it started raining later. The bartender was very nice, he answered our questions, tried to help us find beers we would like, and poured us some tasters. I had the Kolsch and the One Mile Round (pale wheat). I enjoyed both of them! This place is very family and dog friendly. We brought our 1 year old and at least half the people in the brewery had their dogs with them. Good to note, after 8pm it becomes 21+ only. They seem to have a lot of fun events, live music, and food trucks...so check out their schedule!

    The brewery was great !! I wish I lived in the neighborhood where it resides. So convenient. They had a pretty good assortment of brews available as was listed on their big chalk board. I always feel like the beer should cost a bit less at the brewery but that's not the case here. $5-$6 pint. The beer was decent. If you want a "very small" cup of popcorn, that's a $1. (Really !!!!!!). Next time we will bring our own snacks. We came for the hatchet throwing. Seemed like fun after having a few beers. Of course, there is the signing of the waiver........after you pay your $5 to throw 5 hatchets. It's was OK. I wouldn't do it again. The hatchets have light plastic handles and it just wasn't what I expected. It's quite a money maker. (Why didn't we think of that !!!!). We will be back to Southern Brewery. Maybe with our grand dog !!

    This place is large and has indoor and outdoor seating. The vibe is fun! Love the dogs and puppies! The kids there were not a bother because the parents ensured they were behaving - thank you parents! I can imagine if there had been a few more little ones running around though it could get annoying. They have TVs but they aren't the center of attention so its easy to ignore them if you choose. There were a ton of games to choose from which would be fun to do sometime. The bartenders were knowledgeable and very nice. I love when a brewery serves something besides IPA and this one had a few to choose from. I enjoyed it and look forward to going back with my husband.

    Southern Peak Brewery is still in their soft opening so the beer selection is slim. I do not think that they were anticipating a huge crowd until the grand opening. Boyfriend and I split a flight: Belgian Golden Strong, Puffing Devil IPA and Southern Charm Ale. There are 4 beers in a flight but since they only had 3 on tap I got an extra Belgian. Here is my review of the beers: I did not care for the IPA at all. The Belgian was just okay, it had a smokey aftertaste which I did not enjoy. The Southern Charm Ale was an easy drinking cream ale and the best beer that they currently have on tap. If you like Kombucha they currently have a grape and ginger one on tap that tastes great. Once they have their grand opening I will be returning so I can try all of their beers!

    Good beer with a kid-friendly/neighborhood community. The location of Southern Peak Brewery is perfect if you live in the neighborhood directly around the brewery, but it's a little bit of an odd location for the non-locals. You'll find a small parking lot and lots of families (and babies!) Not sure if it's a result of the Apex/neighborhood location, but this is the most family friendly brewery I've seen yet. The space itself is rather small, so cross your fingers that you'll get a seat or prepare yourself for a stand in. Most beers range upwards of $5 (if it's less than $5, it's probably not a full pour!). I was a little surprised by this because of it's neighborhood location, but you'll be paying $6 for a pint of their Puffing Devil IPA if you stop by. And out of the beer I tried, they were good, but not personally worth the trek for location and price.

    I just can't find any beers here that I like. The Tropikol is over-carbonated, and Feeling Brand New is kind of weak flavored for the style.

    For the IPA fans: the puffing devil IPA was great - unfiltered, more of a citrus IPA than a west coast IPA, with a slight but appealing taste of pineapple.

    I've had the pleasure of visiting Fortnight a few times in my life - which is saying something…read moreconsidering I've only been to the Raleigh area a few times. Still, I always seem to find myself at Fortnight. And their beer has always been delicious, with plenty of varieties to sip from either on a cold December day or a blazing hot spring afternoon. They also have a lovely beer garden and, at least when I've been there, a tasty food truck on site. Staff is friendly, with self-service ordering at the bar (the line can definitely get long sometimes). I gotta say, the beer isn't always as cold as I would hope it would be - could be I'm just used to a different beer temp vibe here in the PNW. One ale I recently tried I had to bring back to the counter as it was so warm I thought I'd accidentally been given a cask ale. Oddly, they weren't really apologetic about it and were happy to charge me for a different (colder) beer, even though I'd only taken a couple of sips from the ale. Not the biggest deal, but worth noting that you might want to ask for a sample before committing to a pint, if for no other reason than to verify it's being served at a temp you like.

    Stopped by here recently and had an OK time…read more First, for parking, there was a primary lot as well as overflow parking. I went right after it opened so it was pretty empty during my visit, but there's a ton of seating (both indoor and outdoor!) and I can imagine it gets pretty busy at peak hours. I grabbed a 10 oz pour of the flagship IPA and hung out for a few minutes. Honestly, the beer was not my favorite (and didn't taste much like an IPA to me at least...) but I guess that's personal opinion :) The bartender was nice and the vibes were solid inside. Overall, there are a bunch of breweries in the Triangle, so I'm not sure I'd come back to this one as my first choice, but if a friend wanted to meet me here I wouldn't complain :)

Personally I prefer a smoothie since they are more filling and have fresh fruits and vegetables. Simply healthy does offer a variety of beverage options. The flavors are strong and sweet. I could see these drinks preferred by those used to drinking artificial or sugar sweetened beverages. The drinks are large but pricy. I added 15 grams of protein to the Dragon drink and it came to $14. I was surprised as a "healthy" beverage establishment that they didn't incorporate more fresh produce, fiber, or higher protein options (20-30 grams). Particularly if they promote them as meal replacements. In addition to beverages, they also sell powder mix for shakes and meal replacement bars to go. These are located at the front right of the counter. The store is small, but comfortable and welcoming. It is bright and has a few areas to sit inside. It is a Herbalife location, but I loved how the employee did not push the products on me. The employee was friendly and not very knowledgeable about the ingredients. The establishment is located in a plaza next to food lion. Parking is available right out front. Overall, it is a nice place just not for me.

It took some time to find parking as the surrounding parking lots were full, but I found street parking around the corner. The ambiance is warm and cozy. Brew and the Cary Theater share common space, so you can enter from either entrance. The service is awesome, I was waited on right away and the barista was helpful with suggestions. I ordered a cookie butter latte and an oatmeal raisin cookie w/ walnuts. Both were absolutely delicious, a great combo. When I finished my latte, I dipped my cookie in the cup to get the last of the foam...so good. The baked goods are from Ninth Street Bakery in Durham. How amazing local supporting local. I sat at the bar area. I loved that there were hooks underneath for your belongings, you don't see that everywhere. They have the high top areas, along with a few tables and chairs. I'm so glad I was able to finally experience Brew, looking forward to going back.

Overall, the little coffee shop is cute and has a little bit of outdoor seating which I liked but is expensive for being so mid in my opinion. I ended up paying almost $7 for a blueberry latte. Overall, my latte tasted like a regular latte, even though it did have a seasonal blueberry syrup added to it. I know that blueberry is very light in flavor compared to coffee so I asked for more than the allotted amount of syrup and their response was that they had a certain amount added to of syrups added. So I said ok thinking they would take that into consideration but when I got my coffee, guess the amount they added didn't matter because it tasted the same as a latte regular. Unfortunately, at the end of my coffee (like the last 20%) had what I assume to be bits of berry in it? The texture made me toss the remaining amount. With the high prices and the location right on a busy street / no parking I probably wouldn't be back but I did enjoy being about to sit outside under an umbrella and the service was nice / fast. All the stars would go to the servers and overall cleanliness honestly.
