"Is there a better combination than pizza and beer? Raleigh’s award-winning Trophy Brewing started offering pizza at its West Morgan Street brewpub a few years ago and never looked back. Specialty pies include the Low ‘n Slow (with barbacoa, chipotle barbecue sauce, and avocado salsa), the Most Loyal (roasted chicken, basil pesto, and honey), or the Farmers’ Market (curried cauliflower puree, mushrooms, shaved Brussels sprouts, grilled onions, and jerk sauce). For fans of heat, take a bite of the Daredevil, a spicy red sauce pie with ghost pepper salami, jalapeno, and Sriracha in addition to mozzarella and caramelized onions. Those in the know, though, show up on Mondays or Tuesdays for the not-so-secret special Detroit-style pizza, a square pan pizza with a loyal following. Whichever pie customers go for, they will have the full range of Trophy’s beers available to wash it all down." - Matt Lardie
"Trophy Brewing + Pizza (the Morgan Street location) is offering New Year’s eve party snacks, decked out charcuterie boxes, and mimosa kits with housemade syrups and freshly squeezed juices to-go. Party snacks are equipped for 4 to 6 people and include satisfying bites like spicy queso with chorizo, spinach and artichoke dips, and pimento cheese. “As always, we will have plenty of beer releases to enjoy responsibly, from the couch at home,” says Chris Powers, Trophy co-owner. Order online through December 31 for contactless pickup." - Jenn Rice
"Senator Kamala Harris, the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, visited Raleigh, North Carolina on Sept. 28 and stopped by microbrewery/restaurant Trophy Brewing Company. The company is known for using vintage trophies for displays, tap handles, and overall decoration. Harris presented the co-owners Chris Powers, David Woody Lockwood, David Meeker with an MVP trophy for their new case. Right before the COVID pandemic, the team renovated the 827 West Morgan Street location to include a built-in trophy case. Harris’ gift would be the first one to go into the display." - Erin Perkins
"At Trophy Brewing & Pizza, on Morgan Street in downtown Raleigh, owner Chris Powers witnessed a 40 percent increase in takeout during the COVID-19 crisis." - Jenn Rice
"There are three Trophy locations—one hosts food trucks, another has a bar food menu—but when you want arguably the best pizza in Raleigh, head to the third location on Morgan. You can choose a specialty pie like the Local Celebrity (corn base, fontina, tomato, cheerwine-braised brisket, and jalapeño pesto) or The Indoor Kid (garlic herb cream sauce, spinach, artichokes, provolone, and parmesan), or make your own. Regardless of what you choose, it’ll go perfectly with one of their beers on tap." - Christine Byrne
