Beer Study

The Triangle


Half bar, half bottle shop, and a refreshingly grungy alternative to Chapel Hill’s smattering of breweries, this place offers 18 taps of local and regional craft beer and more than 500 bottles. City ordinances impose plastic cups on dog-friendly establishments, but that’s a small price to pay for pup. Pints cost $4, and you can buy burgers next door.
