I am at the Duke University Medical Center for a few days. Are there beers here I should be trying that I am not likey to see in California? If so what are they? Thanks!

Go to Full Steam Brewery -- fantastic spot:

You might enjoy Top of the Hill in Chapel Hill. Plus it's on Franklin St., one of the best known streets in college sports. And trading Durham for Chapel Hill for an evening is always a plus.

Aviator, Big Boss and Lone Rider all have some great beers available in bottles. Go check out Sam's Quick Shop (http://samsquikshop.com/) for just about any bottled beer that's available in the area.

Yeah go buy some to take home from Sam's quick shop. I would second a visit to Fullsteam. Also, it's worth heading to Bull City Burger and Brewery for lunch or dinner. You wont be disappointed.

Thanks for the replys. I was not able to get out as I had planned. I did get to natty greens in raleigh by chance. I needed a bathroom and the baby needed to eat.

Next trip, I will ask before I get there so I can focus my efforts!
