I've had the pleasure of visiting Fortnight a few times in my life - which is saying something…read moreconsidering I've only been to the Raleigh area a few times. Still, I always seem to find myself at Fortnight. And their beer has always been delicious, with plenty of varieties to sip from either on a cold December day or a blazing hot spring afternoon. They also have a lovely beer garden and, at least when I've been there, a tasty food truck on site. Staff is friendly, with self-service ordering at the bar (the line can definitely get long sometimes). I gotta say, the beer isn't always as cold as I would hope it would be - could be I'm just used to a different beer temp vibe here in the PNW. One ale I recently tried I had to bring back to the counter as it was so warm I thought I'd accidentally been given a cask ale. Oddly, they weren't really apologetic about it and were happy to charge me for a different (colder) beer, even though I'd only taken a couple of sips from the ale. Not the biggest deal, but worth noting that you might want to ask for a sample before committing to a pint, if for no other reason than to verify it's being served at a temp you like.

Came here for an afternoon beverage recently and enjoyed myself!…read more First, we were able to find parking right next to the brewery, but it may be harder if you come during a busier time (like Friday night, for example). I was a little surprised when I walked in and no one was manning the bar indoors, but a sign helpfully suggested that I check the outdoor bar, and sure enough, everyone was out there. I grabbed a beer and chilled on the "common patio area" (shared with South Line, I guess?), which was pretty nice. The beer I got was solid, and the bartender was nice. I was happy that the tip screen suggested reasonable bar tips ($1, $2, etc.). Overall, not a bad time at all, and I'd definitely come back here. We sat outside this time, but the indoors also looked reasonably comfy.

They share a great spot with another brewery if you want a place that offers both indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a bar and offer mixed drinks for your friends that may not be into local breweries. We saw a few couples bring their kids since they have a fenced in area with astroturf so the kids can play while the parents unwind with a beer. We also saw a food truck set up in the parking lot for some warm food.

When it's outside, the live music is great, but if it's warm outside, you'll have someone like "Johnny G" inside at 5 pm playing decent music but way too loud. Nothing I like more than walking in at 5 pm on a Saturday unable to hear someone basically shouting in my ear because neither he nor the staff think the volume should be adjusted for being inside. Heck, 95 degrees out, and we still considered moving outside. Beer is solid still, and BB's next door is great. If the music situation were changed, I'd feel better.
