    Have a co-worker heading to Raleigh this weekend (6/7-6/9) - what/where should she be looking for some good juice we can't here in the RVA? She is willing to bring some Hardywood down as well (BB Cru, Hoplar and Saison Rustica in bombers now)

    Cheers
    Andrew

    As far as shops, I would definitely check out Bottle Revolution. They have a great selection (particularly of NC stuff), and the staff is awesome.

    Tasty Beverage and Ridgewood are also options.

    I would stop by Trophy Brewing, which is a small nano-brewery that is doing good work. They do 32 oz. growler pours.

    Big Boss, Lone Rider, and Raleigh Brewing Company might also be worth the stop if she has time.

    As far as beer bars, I would check out Busy Bee downtown... other options are Tyler's Taproom and Raleigh Times.

    Excellent - I will get the address on Bottle Revolution so she can plug it in her GPS. Might have to Face Time her when she gets in so I can see what they have. Thanks!

    If she makes it into the Bee or Trophy just let me know....we'd be happy to trade some growlers or beers for some Hardywood!

    I think she already took off - I can text her and ask. Sounds like I need to make a trip LOL
