N.C. Taprooms and Breweries Go to the Dogs

What could be better than hanging out and enjoying a microbrew with friends? Enjoying that drink with your furry best friend, of course! Since September, dogs and cats have been allowed inside North Carolina breweries and taprooms thanks to a new law. According to Senate Bill 290, pets are permitted to accompany their humans as long as the establishment doesn’t prepare food. Previous North Carolina law already permitted dogs in wineries.
