Monday afternoon gave us a patio to ourselves and Friday night offered corn hole and a classic summer night.

We got a table right away on a Saturday night. Our server said I could try as many tastes of beers that I would like. I tried the Kolsh Krush & Lavender Lemonade Cider. Both were great, and I ended up going with the cider since it was so unique. We got pizzas for dinner. My husband had the po' boy with oysters and said it was one of the best pizzas he has ever had. He finished the entire thing by himself. I had the Ricotta be kiddin' me pizza which was good, and of course very, very cheesy. I still had about 3 slices leftover. They also have a kids menu, which is always helpful for us. My son had chicken tenders and curly fries.

Sure they have typical pub food too, but if you turn their menu over you will be delighted with the interesting choices of apps and entrees. Tonight I went with the Asian Pork Belly, which is delicious. The spicy Korean BBQ sauce and kimchi really make the dish. Being able to try different brews without having to buy a pint is a real hit for me. I always do 8 oz glasses so I can try the different IPAs, lagers and other brews. I normally sit at the bar or outside, the waitstaff are pros and take care of me. Not too light and not too heavy. All in a great experience. Try it. You won't be disappointed.

I grabbed the FSB Old Fashioned to start and the American Burger to go. The Old Fashioned was amazing! The cocktail brought some serious flavor! They boast about having the largest selection of whiskey and from the looks of the bar, I believe them! The burger was nothing short of spectacular. It was two smash burgers with American cheese, lettuce, pickles, onions, and tomatoes. The price was great for the flavor that I received. This was a great way to start my trip. I cannot wait to come back and try something else on the menu!

We had about a 45 minute wait for a table of 6 which was understandable as it was pretty busy at noon on Thursday. Drinks came quickly as we were seated. Appetizers were hit or miss. Fried pickles were surprisingly good and I'm not a pickle fan. However the pretzel was disappointing. Food was comparable to what you would find at other pubs. My smash burger was fantastic. We did have one issue where the vegetarian in our group got served a chicken bowl by accident. However they quickly remedied it and got him what he ordered ASAP. Unfortunately we were mostly done by the time his food came. They did comp the food that was late which was nice. If you are looking for a good bite and tasty beer then I would totally recommend this place.

They had a huge bar, a lounge seating area, and some high-top tables. In the back, you'll find a small arcade of retro video games (no Skee-Ball unfortunately.) We tried a lot of different beers thanks to the small free samples from our bartender and their various sized pour options. I had the hot chocolate Hand Warmer brown ale, and it was delicious! I followed up my pint with a flight: a Vienna lager (Carolina Rig), a Schwarzbier (Money Island), the Maibock (Suitemates), and the fruited wheat ale (Citrus Tsunami). Each beer was well made. I was particularly fond of Suitemates and Citrus Tsunami - both crisp, tasty, not too sweet. Our bartender was great! The location is really nice with lots of parking and big, bright windows. I never expected to find such great craft beer on the Island, and I loved Crystal Coast. Be prepared - no food!

Waterman's has a very casual ambience - not quite beach-y but with a nice beach-town feel. They have a huge outside space including an area for a band/dj and a pretty spacious interior as well. Their beer seems quality but I did not love that the majority of the options were tropically themed with a lot of fruit flavors. That's not a terrible sin in beer but I would have a like a few more options with more traditional flavors. I did end up enjoying the IPA I got despite not normally being a fan of beers with a lot of fruit flavors. The food was also good if not great. I don't have any complaints, it just wouldn't be my first choice for eating when we're back in town again. I think the strength of this place is the space and casual atmosphere, it was easy to bring our kids to have a nice meal while we enjoyed some beers. The Mac and Cheese was a pretty big hit with the little ones BTW.

I have these back home but they're all the local brews where I frequent. This was a whole new scene with beers is not yet seen. Tried their Scottish ale.

Simply a good local brewpub type place that makes you feel welcome; like you could stay for just one more.

It's a bit off the beaten path, but not a long walk from the River Walk or Main Street at all. I did miss the bigger fly traps in the back, and the ones inside were smaller (and a different kind) than I was expecting. Still, this place has a really cool, chill, and fun vibe. Highly, highly recommend.

The space, equal parts cozy taproom and shaded beer garden, feels both vibrant and homey. If you're reading this and asking yourself what is the region's native icon, the Venus Flytrap - we have catching up to do. Read history below the review. The mood was easygoing. Two staff members, juggling orders with grace, kept the taps moving and the vibe relaxed. We had the Oatmeal Porter (dark, smooth, layered with chocolate, roasted malt, and caramel) And the Brook's Mulberry Lemonade (a blend of house-made lemonade and beer, fermented with mulberries hand-picked from Brook's garden). Both were super delicious. Flytrap Brewing sits tucked in a quiet Wilmington neighborhood, and it feels like it belongs there. The thoughtful drinks, easy crowd, and unpretentious energy, we will for sure be back! History: The Venus flytrap, scientifically known as Dionaea muscipula, is native to a limited area of the southeastern United States. ONLY naturally growing specifically within a 75-mile radius of Wilmington, North Carolina. This area includes parts of both North and South Carolina. The plant was first discovered in the late 1700s. So respected in North Carolina, removing or poaching them from public lands or private property is a Felony. Purchasing them or growing yourself is praised.
