Good pizza, good beer and live music while we were there! They were able to accommodate a very large party of 10 on short notice but space is limited so be aware.

The atmosphere and staff were awesome and food came out super quick, which was great for our family! The beer pouring by volume was an interesting option. The beer was ok, we tried the blueberry (too sweet), NEIPA and IPA (just ok). We ordered the pretzel (delicious), Brussels (tasty but burnt on the outside and undercooked on inside, probably because they were cooked in wrong place in the pizza oven), a salad (delicious!) and 4 pizzas: Veggie supreme w added pepperoni, peach ricotta, Margherita and plain cheese. For the most part, the pizzas were tasty, but there was something off with the dough in the pizzas... had a weird tap water that needs a filter or shrimpy taste. It was most noticeable when you ate the end of the crust. I hope this review is processed by the staff because they're a pizza crust and some refined beers away from being a true hidden gem! Again, great staff/service. We plan to try again next year to see if we just got an off-batch dough.

This place is definitely worth the stop. My wife and I were on a Corolla Light trolley bar hopper and this was one of the stops. Really wish we had known about this place earlier in the week. The pizza was fantastic and the self service tap wall had an amazing selection. If you like local craft beer and trying new flavors you owe it to yourself to make a night of it

The food was very good, and live music was nice, however, the beer is priced per ounce, and the self-pouring taps run fast and foamy. (Make sure the tap is off before you swipe your bracelet). After you clear the head on your mug, you can easily pay $20 for a single glass of beer. From an alcohol standpoint, it's a tourist trap. However, I would add that the manager was very cordial when I didn't understand my bill, and he was even so kind as to show me the calibration system, which is impressive. Still, I prefer a traditional bartender and not to get charged per drop of beer.

OBX 2025. If you want half price shareable appetizers in Corolla, this is the place for you. The special is Monday through Friday from 2 to 4 PM, and the choices of appetizers are great. The portion sizes are large and the service is first class. The brewery has a wide variety of beer choices, and you link your credit card to a wristband and scan each beer tap and pay by the ounce as you try all the different varieties. The pizza oven churns out excellent, crispy pizza, and the deviled egg appetizer is first class. This is a don’t miss location while in OBX!!
