Overcharged my card 4 hours after I left. When I called to speak about the issue the phone was handed to a manager who promptly hung up on me. Watch your card statements if you go here.

I stumbled on this gem while in the Noda area and was quite surprised. Very great customer service that was knowledgeable and attentive. There is a great selection on tap and I was able to sample a few beers. Even watching them can the brews was an experience within itself and cool to watch. I am definitely coming back while in CLT!

I LOVE this brewery! The beers are adorable and good, and the staff is super nice. Emmett, Grayson, and Mims are all especially great. It’s also in a great location with street parking all around the building!

Had a great evening here, great pizza, delightful brews, and thoughtful, personal service! We'll definitely be back!

If you're looking for an easy atmosphere and drinkable beer definitely come here! The pizza is NY size with an original style, a Charlotte must!

The Protagonist Beer - NoDa is one of the new(est) microbreweries in the art district of The Queen City, NoDA. Protagonist is located right across the street from Growlers Pourhouse and the infamous Cabo Fish Taco on the intersection of 35th street and North Davidson street. They are open from Tuesday - Sunday, closed Monday, and beer cocktails, wine and snacks are also offered for the non-beer drinkers. I am an India Pale Ale (IPA) and sour/gose drinker, so the beers below is what I CAN REMEMBER I tried.-----------------Maverick, 7.0%, IPA - AmericanMercury, 7.0%, IPA - New England / HazyJuliane, 5.4%, Sour - Fruited-----------------The Protagonist has a very wide array of beers that are brewed in-house and they are quite effervescent and tasty. The space is not that big, but it does give a 'clubhouse' feel and induces a cozy, yet spacious (enough) vibe. They have a long, linear bar that seats more than 10 people, inside booth seating, and outside/front porch seating for when it's nice out or you just want to people watch in NoDA; which is always fun and interesting. You really have one of the best seats in the house to view the eccentric and eclectic individuals that dwell and roam the streets of NoDA. If you do want a snack, I would recommend the DILL PEANUTS, but they do offer other delectable flavors. The service there is pretty awesome and I would say, top-notch. I can't remember the male bartender's name, but he always provides amazing service.All in all, I would, and have, recommended both locations of Protagonist to my family and friends, and I will definitely be returning very soon.Cheers MATE$!...::: TrizzyO_o :::...

Service was only okay. We had two flights and a cider- did not find anything we care for. It was pretty empty for a Friday night so we should have seen the warning signs.

We were here with my family of six and a toddler in a wagon lol day after Thanksgiving! I am so sorry I do not remember the bartenders name but he was FANTASTIC. So kind and generous and really made us feel welcome! Thank you!!

Good beer.

Always a great spot, excellent beer with a chill vibe and friendly people hanging out on the patio.
