Great open space with events for beer drinkers and non-drinkers alike! The staff is very helpful with selection and suggestions and I also love that they have a small craft cocktail area with some hard to fond mixers and garnishes! I've been several times and will keep going back!

Great selection, friendly staff, and awesome outdoor beer garden.

One of the coolest places I know. Service is great and the beer and atmosphere are hard to beat. I make it a point to visit every time I am in town.
Beth Brewer
Quick stop after the DMV. Great beer. Get a flight!

The Glass Jug Beer Lab has been my neighborhood brew place for going on 10 years now. Great staff, good beer and a great community asset. I'm from the Asheville area and vibe at RTP location has always reminded me of the Asheville breweries.
Jordan Hanson
Don't do trivia at this location. Unless you are cool with being there all night. 6:30 start it's 7:10 still waiting. He's pretty much drunk.

Best spot for a beer in RTP

Great people and a great selection. They have many beers, and even seltzers, wine, and ciders. Multiple gluten free options, mostly cider and seltzer. There's even a CBD drink selection and a non-alcoholic section. Everyone is friendly. The indoor seating can get a little busy sometimes, but there's lots of outdoor seating as well.
If you bring your dog to sit outside, make sure your dog is well behaved and on a leash because there are a lot of dogs here. I suggest bringing a blanket for your dog to lay on.

Bringing kids to a brewery in Durham can feel a bit like being part of an unwelcome invading force. Eye rolls, scoffs and warnings all over make the miracle of getting out of the house with a toddler just a bit more exhausting.The welcoming gesture at beer lab of a dedicated area for little ones convinced us to drive all the way from North Durham. There are at least 10+ taprooms, breweries and beer gardens closer to home but the trip was easily worth it. Beer was stellar too.

I can’t believe I haven’t left a review here before. Been going here since I moved to Durham in 2020 and ordered beers to go from them almost weekly. When they opened back up from the pandemic, it became my go-to Friday afternoon spot. Their beer is great, their bottle shop is expansive, the employees are helpful and friendly, the vibes are great, especially since the upgrades in the beer garden. We love the live music and food truck nights in the beer garden. Oh, and can’t forget the amazing advent calendar every December. I’d give 6 stars if I could.

Love the Glass Jug RTP brewery and bottle shop! It's an eclectic experience with separate indoor and outdoor spaces with many fun beers and activities. Their in-house brews are very tasty including Bunsen, and Chemistree which is a sesasoal favorite. There are two annual must-do events and purchases: the Girl Scout Cookie pairing, and the Beer Advent Calendar. Go here and you will be delighted.

Their beer is fantastic and the selection in the bottle shop is great. Highly recommend!
