NoDa Brewing Company

Good beer. Nice indoor and outdoor spaces. You can get multiple pour sizes. What's on tap varies. Dog friendly indoors too for those of you worried about the heat!Friendly atmosphere too! Someone offered my son a cupcake as they were wrapping up a birthday party.

Most breweries are great but NoDa is top notch! Hubby and I met his brother and our sister in law here while visiting Charlotte.I loved the outdoor areas as well as the inside seating options. Lots of trendy spots to hang out while enjoying their delicious beer. Perfect for children and furry friends, too!The bartenders were great, fast and friendly.I ordered my usual - a flight! The coco loco porter was excellent as were the banana split white stout and the cheerwine ale. I even tried something a little different, the New England IPA you can't impeach vision. Hubby enjoyed his usual IPAs.I can't wait until next time NoDa!

NoDa Coco Loco: NoDa Brewing was founded in 2011 in Charlotte, North Carolina. Although I've become less of a beer guy since my college days, I have a hard time passing up trying certain craft beers (especially if they're free). Last summer when I attended a wedding in North Carolina our Airbnb had one of these stocked in the fridge. I couldn't bring myself to drink a porter in the sweltering NC heat, so I brought it back to WI to sip this winter. It's an American Porter that pours a deep mahogany color and has aromas of chocolate and roasted malts. It is supposed to have a taste that has a subtle bitterness from the chocolate but is balanced out by the sweet organic toasted coconut. Personally, I tasted mostly a heavy dark chocolate, but I don't have the most refined palate when it comes to beers. For those with more sophisticated tastes, it must be a good porter as Coco Loco was the recipient of the 2012 Great American Beer Festival Silver Medal and the 2021 U.S. Open Beer Championship Bronze Medal. For me this was just okay, but I think porter lovers will really enjoy it, so I'll say it's Doughboy approved. Doughboy_Food_Reviews

NoDa is an amazing place and you should definitely go check it out. Bring your dog and a water bowl, and drink your face off. Good beer and great folks. The ambience is fantastic and your dog is welcome inside.

We took the NoDa brewery tour at 4pm on a Saturday, and it was so fun! Started in 2011, we learned that NoDa is the second oldest brewery in Charlotte, behind OMB. Our friendly guide took us around the machinery, describing the brewing process and history of NoDa. He was a super chill, funny guy, and you're welcome to take your beer along with you on the tour, which lasts about 30 min with plenty of opportunities for questions. The group was about 10-15 people and included kids, so it's all very family friendly. With both indoor and outdoor seating, this NoDa location is a super fun place to hang. Dog-friendly, and we also saw some more private spaces rented out for parties. To drink, we started with the Peach Life, a milkshake IPA, and Polo Weather, a Czech amber lager. We really enjoyed both! Later on, we tried the Cheerwine Ale to see what all of the fuss is about. NGL this one kind of tasted like cherry medicine to me, so would not get it again, but I didn't grow up with Cheerwine so am probably not the target demo. That afternoon there was also a food truck and Makers Market on the grounds. We enjoyed chatting with the vendors, and ended up buying a candle and some baked goods. Overall an awesome way to spend a Saturday!

I have loved NoDa Brewing Co. for a very long time (they're one of Charlotte's OG breweries, after all!), but I developed a whole new level of love for them after hosting a friend's engagement party there last weekend. First of all, they do not have a rental fee for their small private room and the row of 10-12 tables outside of it. I repeat - COMPLETELY FREE OF CHARGE. I was blown away to learn this (especially after seeing other local breweries charging up to $500/hour for private events). NoDa does this as a way to give back to the Charlotte community, which is just all around awesome. The space was perfect for our event - the private room at the back is small (but it worked great for us - we put all the food and gifts in there), and it was fun/probably more COVID-safe to have the seating out in the open with the rest of the brewery anyway. Appreciate how they let you bring in outside food too, and of course their beer selection is exceptional!But above all else, I have to give a huge shoutout to Ashley, NoDa's Taproom and Events Manager, for being so wonderful to work with. She was easy to communicate with, provided answers to all of our questions and even helped us secure drink tickets for our guests (which she found out about one day in advance). She was super friendly and courteous as well - really great at her job!Truly hard to think of any way the experience could have been better - I almost didn't want to give this "best-kept secret" of the Charlotte event market away by writing this review, but this amazing brewery deserves all the great feedback and publicity there is. Keep being rockstars, NoDa - your community appreciates you!

Great venue with a huge outdoor area with plenty of places to sit. The indoor space is also huge and lively. The bartenders were all great and personable. The beer list abundant and the lager is the best I've had. If I lived in the area, I would be there often!

NoDa Brewing is a chill brewery that isn't quite in NoDa proper, but it's close enough (between NoDa and Sugar Creek).The day I went, they were having a pop up market so it's great they provide a space to local vendors to sell their wares.All of their staff were friendly and helpful so that is a plus to me. I appreciate when staff make great suggestions and participate in conversations. I also appreciated that they carried a seltzer and a wine option for those who prefer light drinking when spending time with friends. Overall, it's a casual, friendly place that I'd go to again when I want a little peace and a brew or a seltzer.

Forgot to review this place when I was in NC in May! My friend and I chose to visit here as we saw on their website they offer free tours. We arrived right as it was starting and our tour guide was awesome. I can't quite remember his name, maybe Chuck? Don't hold me to that. He had a ton of knowledge to share and was a great guide. Afterward we got flights and enjoyed them on the patio. Not every beer tickled my fancy but I was still glad to have tried them. Will definitely stop by if I find myself in Charlotte again!

Untapped has their current draft menu and no password is required for their free wifi.Can't really add anything that hasn't been said other than, due to covid, they are attempting to do everything hands free which means they ask you if you want a tip added to your credit card and if so, how much? It definitely makes paying awkward, but it wasn't a huge deal as I nearly always tip. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, wifi is strong and free just like 'Merica, lots of free parking in a dedicated lot.No in house grub, but they bring in food trucks. Kids seem to be welcomed here and they are dog friendly outside as well.Plenty of cans can be purchase for the take home. They do flights and some pints can be had for only 5 bucks!!! If only all breweries were like this.This is one of my top 3 breweries at which to hang out and just chill. Music is always mellow and spacing is good. Good vibes here, with good homemade beers. Try Cocoloco coconut porter and the Radio Haze NE style IPA. Good lovin'!
