I was in the area for work stuff and just HAD to stop by because I've heard nothing but great things about NoDa's beers.  At my first attempt, it was extremely crowded and there wasn't anywhere to sit inside (this was on a Sunday). I went Birdsong (which is right next door) and tried a couple of their beers before going back to NoDa.  This time, I was able to get a seat right at the bar.  Even though they were still busy, the bartender was very attentive.  \n\nI went again that week and the bartender let me try anything I wanted to try.  I LOVED Cavu and What Gose Round.  I felt at home here.  I can't wait to visit them again!
