We can’t do a Raleigh podcast without talking about our favorite Raleigh breweries. The beer scene has exploded in recent years, and if you love a craft brew, this is the episode for you.

We’ve been to Asheville, Portland, Washington State, San Diego, Denver, and Raleigh has just as good craft beer as any of them! As Australians we thought American beer consisted of Budweiser, Coors, and Miller.

Now we know better. You cannot beat an American craft beer and you’ll find any style you like all over Wake County and beyond! There are now at least 41 breweries in Raleigh area and it seems more popping up each week.

We have yet to visit all of these breweries. We keep getting sidetracked returning to the ones we love. We’re sharing those ones in this episode.

• The BOOMING Raleigh craft brew scene and why we rate it as one of the best in the country (we've been too a lot of breweries across the USA)
•  
• What we love most in a brewery
•  
• The absence of good cider and gluten free beer (+ a shout out to those who do!)
