Lonerider

It's been a while since I had Lonerider's beer and at one point it slipped my mind to write a review about it but then I realized there was still a review I haven't posted yet for the brewery and decided to rectify that oversight. We had three different beers from this brewery, one in which appears to be no longer in production. The discontinued one was a pale ale by the name of Peacemaker. It was refreshing and enjoyable to have. Flavor features with this beer are that typically seen with a pale ale which are hoppy, malty and sweet. The beer is very light bodied which is nice and very smooth. Unfortunate that it's out of production. The other two beers we had are still being made. One was Shotgun Betty which is a Hefeweizen. Not bad but sometimes I struggle with Hefes and the strong banana clove flavor which was the case here. It was good that it was light bodied like most Hefes are and smooth also. The final beer was the Sweet Josie Brown Ale which I think was my favorite. The sweet, malty and coffee flavors are very enjoyable and like the prior two beers a nice smooth body to this fine dark beer. I am glad I recalled this brewery experience as I felt it was important to post the beers we had and what we thought of them!

This is a hidden gem for Durham! Although it's not a new brewery (the first one is in Raleigh), it's new to Durham. It is tucked away and behind a restaurant. They have a large beer and mixed drinks offering. The service is top notch. When I went there with a friend, I asked about sitting outside and the GM lit a fire for us. She was super welcoming and accommodating!Thanks for a great evening!

Came here for their Oktoberfest and it was a lot of fun. There's plenty of parking. You could buy of course a pint or you could buy a huge sign for $20 and only pay $10 for a fill up. There was a band there a volunteer a German band that helped make the vibe feel very Oktoberfest. They were contests and just dancing. There are also two food trucks this location doesn't make food themselves they always bring food trucks in.

What can I say, this is a cool location. Plenty of outdoor space. Beer was good. Live music was so much fun. Left before the food truck showed up so I can't speak to the food.

This place did not disappoint. It was on the smaller scale of a brewery, but overall a nice little spot. I had the shotgun betty and it tasted great! Had a nice toasty flavor to it. They had a food truck out there which I love seeing breweries that do this. Also, they had porta potties you could use, which were cleaned and well sanitized. Not to mention beside the porta potties was a place you could wash your hand with actual soap and water, not just hand sanitizer. The weather was perfect as well!

Nice quiet tucked away brewery we visited on a Sunday afternoon. Weather was perfect and we ordered seltzer. I ordered the watermelon seltzer which was quite refreshing.They had a el toro alebrije taco truck that looked very good also. Definitely will come back to check it out further as they had a lot on tap.

Great selection of beers! They serve a wide range of ABVs so there is literally a beer or seltzer for everyone. If you aren't into beer or seltzer ... they also serve wine and mixed drinks. My pick of the night from this brewery is the Pilsner. They have food trucks as well. We went on a Thursday and they play music bingo - quite fun. Only set back is the location, it is in the middle of nothing. This place has a good vibe and good beer. Go support this local brewery. And, the merch and logo are really cool.

Very small inside but a fun and big outside seating area! The bar tender was very nice and considerate if our orders! I can't wait for the weather to warm up so that we can sit outside!

We stopped at Lonerider in the Raleigh Durham airport hoping to have dinner before our flight. No one should repeat this mistake. While they have a menu, you are not likely to confuse what they deliver for actual food. We ordered sandwiches and received cold vending-machine fare reminiscent of rejected airline offerings; they actually came in the sealed wrappers. To add insult, they charged $15-$18 dollars for each "sandwich". This is a place for watered-down drinks, anything else will only make you lose your will to live. Avoid at all costs.

amazing team at the Raleigh location. they have literally met every expectation and more. cannot recommend this place more.
