Downtown Raleigh’s annual Brewgaloo festival celebrates craft beer from 110 breweries across North Carolina, making it the second largest craft beer festival in the country. During the two-day festival, attendees are encouraged to venture out of their comfort zones and try the variety of beers offered, ranging from special limited releases to sours to barrel-aged lagers. Although Brewgaloo was canceled this year due to COVID—a drive-through Brewgaloo is still planned for August 15 at Lincoln Theatre—we encourage you to create your own Brewgaloo experience at home with North Carolina craft beers from outside of Wake County. Experiment with styles of beer you normally wouldn’t try; you might find a new favorite! All of the following are available at local bottle shops.
