More Beer Brewing at Boylan Brewpub

As mentioned previously, a pale ale, golden ale, and winter “warmer” have been brewed at the long awaited pub and restaurant. In the past few weeks, Bitter, Porter, and Stout beers have been fermenting and will be moved to the cold room soon. That concludes the list of the six initial beers (still without names) that will be available on opening day…which should be soon.

Boylan Bridge Brewpub are going to have growlers for sale and after returning from Burlington, Vermont, where growlers at brewpubs are as popular as six packs of beer at the grocery store, this will be a fabulous addition to downtown. I visted both Portland and Burlington in 2008 and both cities have an affinity for their local beers and brewpubs. The Triangle has a handful of these but it would be nice to have more in Raleigh. There’s something nice about being able to fill a growler up for $7 with a local beer and not waste 6 glass bottles each time. And when you’re finished with the growler bottle, just take it back…you’ll get your $2 back and the brewpub will reuse the bottle. Let’s hope this will be the case at BBB.

    Can’t wait for a cold bottle of Bud and a cool Menthol. I hope they don’t let no tree-huggers in there.

    BBP had an ad up for servers, etc. on craigslist just a week or so ago. I recently saw the article in the Indy where the owner was quoted as saying that there would be no tv’s or music in the place. No music? Sorry, but I don’t think that the DT raleigh beer crowd is going to go for that!

    I can not wait for this place to open!! And have been axiously awaiting for as long as I can remember. And PLEASE do not listen to the smokers. Non smokers are truly outweighing the smoking community and there are so few places that offer non-smoking outside of Boylan haveing micro brews, this is a HUGE advantage. And you have an outside patio so smokers only have to step outside.
