text: My husband and I like trying new breweries when we are traveling, so we decided to try Heist Brewery when we were in Charlotte today.\n\nWe were the first people in the restaurant when they opened at 11:30 AM and were seated immediately. Our server brought us waters and we decided to order a flight of beers from their list of about 12 beers. The flight was reasonably priced, with 5 generous pours for $6. \n\nThe beers that we tried were: I2PA, peach hefeweizen, Belgian tripel, maibock and a stout. Personally, I liked the peach hefe and the maibock (my favorite). I thought the stout was too dry. I really did not care for the Belgian tripel and I am normally a big fan of Belgian style beers. I did not try the IPA personally, but my husband said it was his favorite. After our flight, I ordered a peach hefe in a pint and my husband ordered the pale ale. He liked the pale as well. So overall, the beers were a little hit or miss, but the hits were good ones!\n\nWe also ordered lunch. I ordered the pressed cheese sandwich with the rosemary tater tots. The sandwich was a warm pimento cheese sandwich topped with sweet pickles. It was served on jalapeno-bacon focaccia bread. The sandwich was fantastic. It was surprisingly spicy and the flavor of the bread added a lot to the sandwich. My husband ordered the Italian sandwich. He also was a big fan of his sandwich. All of the breads here are homemade, and it showed. The tots were good, but not outstanding and the portion size was small (four tots each).\n\nOur server was very friendly and attentive and the space itself is very cool. It is a fun industrial setting with a large bar and plenty of seating. The interesting food menu definitely has a lot of potential!\n\nWe will return the next time we are in Charlotte!
