Beer time
Mary R.

This place was huuuggee! When we think of a brewery, this is what comes to mind. Plenty of indoor and outdoor room! We stopped by at night and they had a live band playing. Staff was helpful. Beer was flavorful and plenty to choose from! They have a restaurant on deck-Napkins! Food smelled and looked amazing. Unfortunately, we had eaten somewhere else before coming here. We wished we came back during the daytime.

Stopped in for a quick beer & was surprised at the absolute massive compound I discovered - Dirtbag has a brewery, distillery, & food service on site at their facility. I went with the Blood Orange Kolsch & enjoyed it thoroughly. A great space with even a playground on premise. A great place to bring the family - not sure what town I was in - but this spot is a gem!

Went here after reading about the Sunday market with food trucks and lots of beer offerings. The place is out in the boonies but well worth the trip. The market was nice and they had multiple places to get beer so you didn't have to browse with an empty hand. The food truck offerings were decent. We had some burgers and ribs. All were really good. They had a kids play area and dog area so bring them if you got them! Today they had live music with 'Into the Fog'. Really cool! They called their music 'newgrass' as they took current songs and blue-grassed them up. Really liked them and even looked the up on Apple Music. They are there! Stepping inside for a bit it was really nice. Lots of tvs and a cool mural. Over all a very cool place with some very friendly folks. We actually went back n on visit to NC a second time !

What a fun spot. The layout of the land is great, the beer and cocktails were delicious. Definitely a spot worth visiting.

This experience was very nice. We walked around and ordered food and drinks, met a lot of nice vendors and really enjoyed ourselves. We didn't stay long because we didn't realize it closed at 2:00 but we will return as soon as possible.

Very nice campus! They have the brewery building, a cocktail building, a covered tap section outside, 2 covered sitting areas, a little restaurant, a food truck parking area, and plenty of open space for dogs/kids. They are dog friendly. Lots of beer options available, and the taps rotate regularly. Service was very friendly and knowledgeable when we said what we liked, and what they had available. They have crowlers and cans to go. Paying cash will get you a little discount, and they have an ATM on site.

"The IPA"

We loved it! We were traveling I-95 and looking for a pit stop. My husband and I usually gravitate towards breweries, so we were excited it was right off the exit. The atmosphere was "hopping". We sat both inside and outside for a bit and both were very inviting. The outside area is huge and the vibe was very relaxing and enjoyable. The outside playground was an added bonus for our little one. Last but not least the beer was delicious and a great variety of brews. We only tried a few as we were on a long drive but sincerely wish we lived closer- we would definitely be frequent visitors!

Perfect place to have your kids, drink a beer, and catch up with friends. Plenty of seating and it's delicious!

First time visiting and won't be our last as now we have family in Fayetteville. Our family of…read morefour, enjoyed the jalapeño pepper egg rolls, a Gaston burger, a bacon pepper jam burger, a fish sandwich and a fish and chips basket. Everything was delicious and service was very efficient. Our server was very accommodating and friendly! The ambiance was very much like a warm pub. And we are also Packer fans and a pleasant discovery was finding out via Facebook, that this is a Packer fan establishment!

We were passing through town and this location came up on Yelp so we decided to check it out. The…read morebeer is actually really good. They've got a smaller selection of craft beer, but it's still delicious. I did a flight and tried their two lagers, the lavender ale and their porter. Porter was super light not really heavy at all. Has a small coffee finish. The lavender ale actually really surprised me. It was delicious but my favorite was by far that velvet blackberry lager. Just absolutely amazing. Their liberty lager is super light. I would compare it to the equivalent of maybe a Miller light. We did order food. My husband got the chicken wings. They come in an order of six and he got the lemon pepper rub. He really liked it. He said the rub was a little sparse on some of the wings, but overall it was good. I got the pepperoni, hot honey flatbread and really enjoyed it. The pepperoni is the nice cup of pepperoni that curls and the hot honey gives a nice balance with it. Overall, we enjoyed our experience. We sat at the bar and the bar was kind of a disaster. I'm guessing they must've just come off of the dinner rush because we didn't arrive until around 8 o'clock.

Another late review! And this one really hurts because my phone battery died, so I didn't get a…read morechance to take many photos. I may have one or two on my husband's phone that I still need to pull. Now, let me tell you...this place is amazing! And it was even better because our server was phenomenal. He gave us just the right amount of attention without us ever having to ask twice--or even once! He kept our drinks refilled and checked in to see if we needed anything else. That kind of service makes such a difference. The interior is unique and really cool. I especially loved the idea of hanging a full-size motorcycle from the ceiling. Definitely a great conversation piece! We had a party of five, and all five of us ordered something different, ranging from a chicken salad to tacos, hush puppies, and, of course, my Chopped Brisket Sandwich with a side of sweet potato fries. I'm already drooling again just thinking about it! The brisket was tender, juicy, and full of flavor, with just the right amount of seasoning. But let me talk about those sweet potato fries... THE BEST sweet potato fries I've had so far! They were crispy on the outside and actually tasted like sweet potatoes. I've had sweet potato fries at other restaurants that were soggy and tasted more like frying oil than sweet potato. These were completely different--crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. I 100% recommend them! So, if you're in the Charlotte area, do yourself a favor and stop by Mac's Speed Shop at 2414 Sandy Porter Road. Great food, great atmosphere, and phenomenal service. I would definitely go back!

I think of them more as a burger or southern food place but they do pay special attention to the art of the que. Very few places smoke wings and most of the ones that do, the wings are amazing. Macs is no exception. If you're a wing person who likes layers of flavor with your wings then you won't be disappointed here. Pairs perfectly with crispy beer battered fries. The deluxe devils if they're still on the menu are really good...deviled eggs with jalapeños on top! I like their tacos as well. They have a brisket taco that really smacks and the shrimp taco hits hard too. Service is consistently good. As far as ambiance, it doesn't really get any points for style....nothing really says "hey we're a speed shop" like you'd see at Quaker Stake or other speed themed bars and restaurants. It's somewhat generic but that's okay. This is one of my go to places when I'm visiting Fayettenam.
