I LOVE the glass jug. Their beer choices are amazing, ranging from lagers to IPAs to stouts and my favorite, sours. The service is consistently great, with all the beer tenders serving with a personable touch. I also love the glass jug for group and work events since you can easily rent the atrium space out. I found my community here through run club on Tuesdays, Trivia on Wednesdays, and many other events.

We came to The Glass Jug - RTP with a small group of coworkers after work for a casual drink since Boxyard RTP was closed. What we got instead was an unwelcoming, borderline hostile experience.
The manager or owner made it very clear that our presence was an inconvenience. He seemed genuinely upset that we moved a table to sit together—even though we were respectful and intended to put everything back. One glass was accidentally broken, which can happen anywhere, and we apologized—but this seemed to escalate his frustration.
They acted as if we were throwing some kind of formal event, when in reality, it was just a handful of friends meeting up to support a local business. Unfortunately, they made us feel very unwelcome from the minute we walked in.
If you’re looking for a spot to relax and enjoy a drink with friends, this is not the place. The vibe here is more grab-and-go—definitely not somewhere that embraces community or casual socializing. I wouldn’t recommend it. Plenty of other spots nearby that actually appreciate their customers.

Good beer selection both on draft and bottles. Lots of food in the shopping center.

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.
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.

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.
