Enjoyed an afternoon at Pig Pounder recently. We had hoped to get outside, and enjoy their back patio, but the weather wasn't going to permit that. Despite the weather, the interior is huge, and still plenty of room for having a good time. And getting together with friends.there is also some awesome art/murals painted all over the interior that need to be checked out. The staff is always friendly, and they offer a great selection of beer, something to fit everyone's taste. They don't serve food, but you are welcome to bring your own, and there are several great spots near by to even pick up from or have delivered. This is a must visit spot for beer lovers, and it is pet and kid friendly.

Cool space for a drink! Love the eclectic art all over the bar. The bartenders were very friendly. Got to hangout during an art vendor market. It was cool to see them supporting the local artists!

Cool.laid back atmosphere. They have seating both inside and outside. Pups are welcome on leash. They have plenty of seating both at the bar, tables and couches. Ping pong table and goose all tables in case you're feeling like a game. They have a great selection of beers and also you can take a growler home.

I've been to a lot of NC breweries and this place is in the top 5 for coolest venues based on atmosphere. It's pretty large with lots of seating inside, and also a patio with more tables. They turned an old shipping container into a cool spot with seats for about 6 people. The beer itself was average. Not bad, but also not crazy memorable. They have a good sized menu to choose from. It's still worth a stop!

This was a great local brewery, with a lot of choices in beer and an interior decorated in a way that it was a treat visually as well. Our barkeeper, unfortunately I did ,not get her name, was extremely knowledgable about the beers. We had a couple of tasings and it was a difficult choice but had the Boar Brown (English Brown Ale), which was creamy and rich, and the Swinestien (Hefeweizen) with slight banana notes....and one other that escapes me. They were all great and we will definitely come back with some friends.

What a cute place! There's fun pig artwork everywhere, games, tables and cozy couches. Plus, there's a spacious outside area for nice weather days. I ordered the Three Little Pigs Sour which was delicious and husband enjoyed his IPA. Only pet peeve is that there are NO prices posted on the menu. Why would you not post prices? Other than that, a great little place to hang out.

Visited this micro-brewery in Greensboro's Midtown area for an after work function. They let you bring in outside food which is cool as they don't serve any food themselves. The place is very spacious with multiple seating areas. There's a section with couches, the bar with barstools, as well as some larger bench type tables. They do have a sizable outdoor patio area to enjoy during nice weather. Pig Pounder is like a gallery with impressive art pieces and fun Graffiti murals all around to look at. The Angel wings were so cool, hate I didn't grab a picture. When I was there they were doing trivia and they also have some games guests can enjoy like large Jenga and ping pong tables. I'd say ambiance and entertainment wise, this is a great place to hang out. As far as the beer itself, I tried two of their sour types. I started with the Tusks on Fire which was a mango habanero lime wheat. This was only available in a can. The can art was cool and the beer was itself was alright. Enjoyed the spicy element, but flavor was a bit bland. I next tried the Raspberry Drift which was a sour fruited Berliner weisse of theirs on draft. I liked this one better. The fruity and sour notes paired well together. Overall, I think there are better local brews in the area as far as taste and variety. But the venue itself gives them some edge.

What a fun place to go with a large or small group. Bring your camera because the large Miss Piggy and Angel wings are so worth a photo. Lots of fun games to play. Indoor and outdoor space and lots of drink options. They allow you to bring in your own food in as well if you're hosting a large group. Thank you Pig Pounder for the hospitality! We had a great time.

Pig Pounder is a fantastic spot to hang out and have a drink in Greensboro. When first walking in you're met with very bold graffiti-style artwork and two pig-themed Gundam murals guarding the front door. Inside, you are surrounded by art, tons of murals adorn each wall in the building as well a hanging wing sculpture which makes for a great photo op. The bar space is huge with plenty of seating, as well as tables and some couches scattered around the building. There is also an outdoor patio in the back with picnic tables. There's plenty of entertainment, with cornhole, a ping-pong table and a newly installed Street Fighter cabinet (Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo!). They allow outside food in the establishment if you're looking to grab something to eat. Also dog friendly! Pig Pounder has a vast beer selection, with plenty of options to choose from. Their rotations seems to change frequently as well, so you're always in for a treat if you're looking for something new. A great opportunity for beer flights, which they do offer! Bartenders are super knowledgeable about the selections and will offer a sample to try a beer before you make your choice. Their Midtown Winter Ale was my favorite, but for the current season and selection I'm a big fan of the Pigment of Our Imagination. I hope you like pig puns! This is a great stop if you're out brewery hopping for the day or looking for a spot to spend some time and try something new or attend one of their various events.

Really fun brewery, nice open space with some tasty options. Did a flight of some IPA's which were solid along with an Octoberfest and a Pumpkin beer. All nice and easy drinking, bartender also talked us into a jalapeño ale which had nice heat in smooth crisp beer. Cheers!

So I wanted to like this place. I wanted to love it! The decor and art were intriguing and impressive. There's tons of room indoors and out, with table tennis and multiple seating options. The names of the beers really drew me there though- Chocolate coconut Snout, Tusks on Fire mango habanero , Pigmosa shandy, When Pigs Fly milkshake wheat, Lipstick on a Pig hard seltzer ... you get the picture. The beers were average at best. Served reasonably cold, but everything was still in plastic. I understood plastic during the strict regulations of Covid, but now? You're gonna lose a star for that even if the beer is great - and it's not. The sour Berliner Weiss was the only one I liked out of the 5 I tasted. Our bartender was neither friendly nor helpful. It seemed like she didn't much like their beers either. I might return for music or something, but not for the beer.

This is an inclusive place for everyone, family, adults, college students, the urban crowd as well. I love the setup!, It looks to be an old garage or something because of the sliding doors but you can't tell on the inside. They have great drinks and a huge selection of beer if you're into that. They also have games and TVs with plenty of seating and an area for corneal in the front. It's very close to the public parking lot so not a far walk at all and it's in a great area. The bathrooms and the entire establishment is pretty clean which is always appreciated. They don't have food but they have a food truck that stays parked in their lot with some pretty decent food. I will definitely stop by Hidden Gate if I'm in the mood for some chill vibes and it's a great place to talk with friends. I enjoyed it!

Inside there's plenty of seating and TVs, so it works whether you want to hang out casually or catch a game. The beer selection is excellent, with something for everyone, and the flights make it easy to sample around. It's the kind of place where you can stop in for one or settle in for a few. One of the biggest bonuses is the permanent food truck, Savoury Eats Kitchen, right outside. That deserves its own review, but let's just say having that kind of food right on hand makes the experience even better. Great atmosphere, wonderful beer, tasty food, and a lively location downtown. Hidden Gate Brewing nails it.

This was a fun local find! On my last day in town, I wasn't leaving until the evening, so I decided…read moreto spend some time by dropping here. I decided to do a flight, and it included a lot, sheesh! While they mostly do bourbons and ryes with a new seasonal flavor every now and then, they also have a gin and vodka. When you do the tasting, the latter two come first. Everyone has a different palate, but I definitely enjoyed the vodka and gin. Some of the whiskeys were smoother than others, but some definitely stood out. There was one with a strong Caribbean rum taste to it that was delicious, for example. Otherwise, it's a really cool place to hang out and they have a patio. I was there pretty early, and was told they would start doing cocktails later. I decided to just come back for a round, and who can say no to a cocktail with pear in it?? Such an underutilized ingredient. I wish I could have taken bottles home, but I wasn't checking in a bag. I can definitely drive back, and I plan to!

If you've never been, the tasting is a fantastic experience. You receive a complimentary tasting glass to take home and get to sample their handcrafted vodka, gin, and whiskey while learning about the distilling process. It's a great value and a fun way to discover your favorites. The Summer Lemonade Stand and seasonal cocktail menu (Christmas time eggnog) are absolute standouts. The cocktails are creative, refreshing, and perfectly crafted, making every visit feel unique. Bill and Andrew truly know what they're doing. Their knowledge, passion, and genuine enthusiasm for craft spirits make the experience even better. Whether you're stopping in for a tasting, enjoying cocktails with friends, or picking up a bottle to take home, you'll leave impressed a great addition to Downtown Greensboro South End Area.
