text: You can really taste the inspiration that Dogfish Head and Founders had on NoDa Brewing Company.  \n\nThe Hop, Drop 'n Roll is a sharp and citrusy IPA while the  Woody & Wilcox IPA has a bit more gentle earthiness to it.  The Coco Loco was the first NoDa beer I ever tried.  Bold and subtle at the same time, this beer would be a great campfire replacement for smores.  Many of the other beers I've tried are strongly built and carry their own weight while mingling with the others.\n\nThe inside of NoDa BC is a typical taproom.  There are tables and a bar.  The patrons are an ensemble of culture as you'll find many types of people here.  Mostly people that take beer seriously, though.\n\nI can't say there is anything that puts NoDa over the top.  It feels like a work in progress...or maybe that's because the beer hasn't really knocked my socks off yet. \n\nI do know that I like this place and will come back again.\n\nTry:  The Coco Loco (I know...you don't like the gimmicky porters...but try it anyhow)\n\nAvoid:  Being one of the smokers huddled under the awning when it rains outside
