    Great bear selection and nice outside seating area. Food choices (especially starters) could be a bit better but overall it was great and I would definitely return if in the area again.

    Amazing pretzels - best we've had on this continent, by far. Be sure to try all three dips (queso, spicy mustard, cream cheese and chive) the first time. Warning: Be careful with the mustard!!!

    Unforgettable experience for craft beer lovers: more than 240 beers, 100 on tap, nice staff, good food, pleasant outside area and, obviously, the UFO Club. Be loyal and become part of the history.

    Obviously the beer selection is on point but if you are looking for some grub - flying tots and the pretzel with queso are a win!

    The soft pretzels are amazing. You might think "how can a pretzel be that good?" But you would be wrong and they are fantastic

    One of the best bars in downtown Raleigh. Definitely join the UFO club for the full experience: it forces you to try new beers and get out of your comfort zone.

    large beer selection. only ~3% is impressive craft beer. skip the pint glass unless u dig drinking room temp beer w/in 5mins of it hitting the table. bartender is best guide, wait staff is clueless.

    Order the "Isa style" dry rub wings! They're not on the menu but they're delicious and specially made by one of their very own cooks.

    The pretzel with cheese is great. Beer cheese soup in a bread bowl wasn't very good. Super soggy bread choice and overly spicy soup.

    Excellent beer selection, and a solid menu at reasonable prices. Can get crowded, but that's 1/2 the fun.

    Brats and sauerkraut were amazing. Love the outdoor porch for a cigar after a great meal... and more beer!

    Cool place....Good food....Not really too impressed with their draft list though. World of Beer at North Hills is better IMO

    If you like Hefeweizens, try the Ayinger Brau Weisse. Amazing banana-ness!

    LOTS of different beers, many on tap. The food is okay. Nice outdoor seating. And am I the only one who noticed the waitresses tend to be hot and wear skimpy plaid skirts?

    Decent selection of beer, can get noisy in the outside patio. Desinterested waiter. Whit beer in a regular pint glass was a let-down.
