Trailer Trad Raleigh: New Saturday Night and Sunday Morning Hangouts

Just a few blocks from my abode is perhaps the hottest new beer spot in Raleigh. The Raleigh Beer Garden has just opened and offers nearly 350 taps--and vies for the World Record for having the most taps. I just need one...Schlitz..and I bet they don't have it. Oh well.
Truth be told, I just dropped in a for quick tour and left impressed with its size and vision. It is much, much larger than it appears from the street. Covering four(?) floors, its a well thought out layout with separate bar areas for spirits, NC brews, and world brews along with ample outdoor and indoor seating for as much privacy as guests prefer. Food isn't really emphasized but is available. Laudable is its TOTAL lack of TVs with their ever-present sports yapping. Seriously, does anyone besides betters really care about big-time pro sports anymore? I certainly don't.
Now, here come the Trailer Trad quibbles. At the end of the day, the Garden is just like any other new big money Glenwood South watering hole. You line up with the usual dudes at the busy bar to pay upwards of TEN dollars for a beer. Trailer Trad tip for Raleigh-ites? Fill up on burgers and $2.50 PBRs next door at MoJos and slip into the Garden for face time, if you need that.
This is the view out of my new location for bible study on Sunday mornings. Pretty nice, right? The room has floor to ceiling views of the State Capital. Quite enjoyable on Raleigh Sunday mornings and suitable for studying Scripture. Great discussions and nice people too. Unfortunately, my home church's bible study is on summer hiatus (as half of the members are at the beach every week). For now though, this class has been great! What are YOU doing on Sunday mornings, Slacker?

Is this a Trump campaign stop?

Ed said...

Wait a minute. Did Trailer Trad endorse Trump?!!?

Buddy said...

I personally like Trump because of his cool trucker hats.

Ed said...

I like his hair. Is he related to the guy from Flock of Seagulls?

Bucky Buford said...

I like Trump because he is "hair impaired"!

Gentlemen,

I endorsed Mitt in '12 and look where that got him.

In that case, you are encouraged to put a Trump bumper sticker on your car!

Bob said...

I think that Bad Comedian Eli Manning endorsed Trump.

Pete said...

I think I saw that Scrawny Arms Rob Lowe is on board with Trump.

Kevin said...

Painfully Awkward Rob Lowe is backing Hillary.

Or was that Painfully Awkward Hillary is backing Rob Lowe...?

I think the Trump posts have been beaten to death, if only he would pull out

Don't be like Painfully Awkward Rob Lowe!

Dear Mr. Phineas

I heard that Rob Lowe was again discovered in a sexual scandal with Hillary Clinton porn

To Anon 4:47 AM:

I appreciate that you wake up at 4:47 AM; that is the sign of a winner. Unless, you were just getting in at 4:47 AM, which would make you a loser! That said, I appreciate Buddy, Ed and Bucky's support; you guys are terrific and you are real winners! As for those other guys, I don't even know what they're talking about with these Rob Lowe references. The truth is that, unlike our current leaders, who are stupid, I will make this country great again because I have some terrific ideas! So thanks to Buddy, who will be getting a terrific baseball cap (though these are not made for truckers, so I am not sure why you call it a trucker's cap) and to Ed and Bucky, who will be getting signed photos. You guys are real winners! By the way, what does this website have to do with trailers anyway? I don't particularly like trailers as they are not very classy.

Gentlemen, gentlemen,

Please, let's not turn this into a Donald Trump Adoration Society. But, let's face it. He's the best and the rest are, frankly, terrible. DJT, you clearly are a genius and can foresee that having Trailer Trad flown in to judge the 2016 Miss Universe pageant would be a brilliant social media branding play. According to Google Analytics, my blog hit counts speak for the themselves.*

*Editor's note: While most of this is hogwash, my hit counts actually do speak for the themselves, unfortunately.

Do they serve PBR at the Beer Garden?

Trailer Trad said...

Luddy,

My, what an unfortunate nickname 'Luddy' is.-Are you sure that your friends respect you?
