It's such a convenience to have two solid microbreweries located side by side, especially when they are both good! After grabbing a cold one at NoDa we walked like fifty feet to Birdsong to check out what they had. I hadn't had the opportunity to have one of their beers before, but after grabbing a beer here I was a fan.\n\nBirdsong is a bit of the opposite of NoDa in terms of environment, with a large outdoor seating area and a smaller, tighter indoor area and bar. They were offering about eight beers or so and they all sounded pretty good. They had some live music kicking on the patio and the peanut cans were overflowing with salty goodness. When I drink I like to have a little something to munch on, and free peanuts fulfilled this need perfectly.\n\nIt is pretty darn awesome to have Birdsong and NoDa located so close together. Both produce very good beer and offer laid back, comfortable areas to enjoy said booze in. Birdsong is definitely worth the visit...I just wish I could find their brews at local restaurants more often!
