Wooden Robot Brewery

Widely regarded as one of the best breweries in town, Wooden Robot is consistently creating some amazing beer. Having recently added Kre8 Gastropub to their South End location they are also looking to open a second location in NoDa in 2019. The crowd favorite (and our favorite!) beer here is the Good Morning Vietnam which is a blond ale brewed with Ethiopian Coffee and vanilla.

Beer snobs in Charlotte may take issue with Triple C falling so far on this list but just because it's 10 doesn't mean it isn't one of our favorites!
