Raleigh is the state capital, the home of N.C. State U., and one corner of the Research Triangle, with Durham and Chapel Hill. I was told it robustly supports four craft breweries; time only allowed this one visit this time.

North Carolina: a stop in Raleigh
I took a day away from the Philadelphia visit last month to pop down to Raleigh, NC and hang out with a couple I've known since the late Paleocene era. We had dinner at the Boylan Bridge Brewpub, with a nice view of downtown Raleigh for a backdrop.
Paul and Linda were kind enough to share a meal of pub fare with me, rather than dining off their splendid backyard garden. We sampled the Trainspotter Scottish Ale, the Southbound Stout, and the Rail Pale. (Note: the Amtrak station is just down the hill, hidden by the wall in this shot). They do make a Pullman Porter here as well, though it was not available the day we stopped by.
