Birdsong Brewing

 

Loved my visit to this great Charlotte spot. Smallish parking lot for this super busy place. Casual, inviting and focused on the fun. Outdoor and great indoor seating options. Midsized, with brewing equipment in the rear. Friendly staff, great beers, community involvement for decades….food truck ready to feed you, free peanuts, great beers to stay and to go…I could keep going….love this place, if in Charlotte…just go

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bring your dog, eat free peanuts, and enjoy outdoor seating with cornhole and other games. The jalapeno pale is really interesting! Might be the closest NODA brewery to Uptown, which is nice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best brewery in Charlotte, NC!

 

 

 

Absolutely awesome patio vibe at this spot. Their Jalapeno Pale Ale is an awesome change of pace beer and their Mexicali Stout may be one of the best in style for Charlotte. They always have something special on tap, whether it be a seasonal (Fake Plastic Trees was awesome last summer) or one of their flagship beers on nitro (Lazy Bird Brown is even better this way).

 

 

Tucked away in an industrial park, across the way from NoDa. Got to swing by for the anniversary weekend. This is a cool spot. They had a band playing in one section, back where the brew equipment is. They had a couple of special releases tapped back there. Then, in the tasting room, there were at least 12 taps, with a handful of special releases for the festivities, as well. The staff was great. There were a couple of folks behind the bar, and I got to meet the brewmaster and one of the other brewers. All great people. Very friendly, and just a great vibe all over this place. I will be interested to see them when they move in to the new digs. There wasn't any food available there, but there are food trucks in the area, and plenty of restaurants to bring food in. Beer to go in growlers, and a ton of swag available to rock the Birdsong brand. This place is worth seeking out.

 

 

 

Stop # 445 on my world brewery tour.

Tuesday around 6:30. Light crowd with most going on to the brewery tour.

Did a flight of Pale, Jalepeno Pale, Seasonal Abbey, and IPA. Added Nitro Brown and Vanilla Chocolate Stout. All beers were good, nothing extraordinary. Nice vibe in an old industrial building Big shaded porch which might have been an old loading dock. A big group of cyclists enjoying post-ride pints.

Sad to hear Birdsong was not a reference to one of my fav Dead tunes but rather the way the head brewer/owner snores.
