Small Batch brewery is a small place in downtown Winston-Salem across from the 2 major hotels. They make their own beer and also have a good variety of other craft beers. I had a flight of the four they had on tap one day; that had had 7 but ran out of 3. I think they often make different beers depending on what strikes them. All four beers were excellent - a double IPA, a Lemon IPA that was not lemony, an oatmeal stout and a winter ale. They have a small menu, we just shared nachos that were very good and had a kick. Atmosphere of a funky neighborhood bar. Definitely worth visiting if only to try whatever they have made for that day.

I was in Winston-Salem for the afternoon and had finished my main errands. I found this place based on someone else's TripAdvisor review among "city attractions". It's essentially a small restaurant and pub that makes specialty craft brews one barrel at a time, hence the name. (They offer their own brews on tap - just theirs though; other craft beers like Highland are offered by the bottle.)As I approached the door, I was met by a chalk sign out front with a list of the day's tap selections. I was immediately drawn inside when I saw they had, among their eight "small batches" a barrel of Black Mountain Dark Chocolate Porter (it's made with nibs from Black Mountain Chocolate, which I have visited and enjoyed when in Black Mountain, NC). When I sat down at the bar, the bartender handed me the menu - the food list was pretty short, but it was cold, so I was just interested in the soup of the day. They delivered a very good white bean soup with sausage - extremely flavorful, substantial, and it warmed me right up. Of course, I ordered a glass of the dark chocolate porter - definitely a well-crafted and smooth porter, and I loved picking up on those cocoa nibs. Small Batch did not disappoint!!I was delighted to learn that they also offer GROWLERS of the stuff they make - it's $5 for the bottle, $16 for the pour. (When I paid my bill and walked outside with the Small Batch growler, I learned how much Small Batch "is the stuff" in Winston-Salem when several local runners in a group slowed down to ask me what I got, and asked how much I enjoyed it - apparently that was the finish line for them?!? lol)When I got home, I looked Small Batch up online (http://www.smallbatchws.com/) and discovered the website puts up a dashboard showing how much of each batch is left (Hey - if I go tomorrow, maybe I can get the Mocha Percolator Porter. ;) )For the beer enthusiast, Small Batch truly is the stuff... I'll be recommending it to my other micro-brew buddies. If we get a road trip going, no doubt we'll be there for a couple hours checking out the varieties.
