That map pretty well defines the areas of NC that you do, and don't, want to live.

I have a lot of love for Fullsteam in Durham - they set out to brew a very distinctly southern beer and use local crops. Thanks for posting.

I love Carolina Brewery's Copperline. I had it at King's Barcade in downtown Raleigh and I've bought a few growlers of it. I wish they sold it in bottle like some of their other beers.

the ones i drink with regularity are:
Duck-Rabbit
Mother Earth
Carolina Brewery
Lone Rider
Natty Greene's


someone needs to step up to the plate and make a local cheap beer, a la PBR, Natural Light, Miller High Life, or maybe even something that competes with Yuengling, Bud Light, etc.. The prices of these craft beers are killing me.

It's cheap for a reason

Hey, make your own! It's cheap, and you can make whatever kind you like.

I have to add a few of my favorite NC beers to the list:

Red Oak (and Battlefield Bock from the same brewer)
Highland--Porter and Gaelic Ale
Green Man ESB (also have a very good Porter)
Foothills Octoberfest

Ah heck, who am I kidding...I like them all!
