In the heart of downtown Pittsboro (one of the fastest growing communities in the state) sits this 8,500 square foot brewery. Originally home to Justice Motor Company, this warehouse space was carefully adapted into a flagship brewery which includes a taproom with plenty of seating (ample outdoor seating as well!), a 15-barrel production brewhouse, and a 1-barrel pilot brewhouse.

With a curved window storefront, tons of natural light, thoughtful design, and great beer - the building truly embodies the owners’ goal of “creating a space where people can come together, relax and leave the havoc of life outside the door”.

In North Raleigh off of Six Forks Rd you’ll find this brewery with a spunky logo, exceptional beer and an equally impressive vibe. The space itself offers plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and large bifold doors allow the outside to shine in. In addition to carefully crafted beer, Sneaky Penguin also hosts a variety of activities and events including Run Clubs, Music Bingo, Trivia, and they even host a Monthly Comedy Night.

Owner and Brewer Chris Nadeau has more than 15 years of brewing experience. His passion for high quality beer and sharing it with the community shaped the dream of starting his own brewery.

Young Hearts Distilling, downtown Raleigh's first Distillery, offers a full menu and craft cocktails that can be enjoyed under the new wood and steel canopy. With a renovated interior and new bars upstairs and downstairs, it is a perfect spot for events or a quick meet up after work.

Our history with the building at 225 S. Wilmington Street began in 2008 when we were brought on to renovate the former Busy Bee Café. Although the building has seen some significant changes, the basic concept remains the same: to bring people together to enjoy delicious food and drink in a beautiful place.

The new distilling area is located on the first floor, visible from the sidewalk and immediately upon entering the space. The main goal was to establish a connection between the creation of the product and the people enjoying it. With a new bar, new booth seating, new toilet rooms, and an expanded mezzanine seating area, the space feels fresh and bright, with a focus on the distilling process. On the second floor, the new bar and seating breathe new life into the space, and the roof deck now features an expansive wood and steel canopy, which will allow the space to be enjoyed year-round.

Once a historic theater in Downtown Franklinton, this incredible space is now home to Owl’s Roost Brewing. The brewery boasts exposed masonry walls, a bright and airy bar and seating area, and a mezzanine which overlooks the outdoor beer garden.

This renovated 1950s industrial building on S. Bloodworth St. is home to Brewery Bhavana's production facility—where the magic happens. Ten core beers and a growing number of provisional offerings are brewed to support the forty taps at the flagship store in historic Moore Square. A new mezzanine was constructed in the brewery proper, in addition to the fifteen-barrel, four vessel brew house. The brewery is designed to accommodate up to twenty-five fermentation and brite tanks, as well as future foeder expansion. An impressive barrel aging room is one of the brewery's many highlights. Brewery Bhavana shares the space with Anchorlight, a community of artists and makers.

The previous 14,000 sq. ft. storage and distribution metal building was transformed into a 20 BBL brewery operation with an attached indoor/outdoor taproom. Seating can accommodate up to 400 occupants. The The modest original building now offers a welcoming exterior presence with an attractive storefront window wall. Unique features, like a coolship fermentation vessel and brite tanks with taps, offer a direct production to customer experience.

This renovated wholesale store and warehouse is located in Durham. The building was divided into two tenant spaces. The Bull City side includes a full brewery and a taproom that opens out to a deck and courtyard. The indoor taproom accommodates a large occupancy of guests with high-top and picnic tables. The outdoor space includes several picnic tables and a fire pit. 

The CBC taproom in Holly Springs celebrated their grand opening this past weekend. The taproom expansion provided some much need seating, a new bar, new access into the existing brewery, and a new glass storefront that leads out to a side patio.

Trophy's second location features an expansive 20-barrel brewery with a cozy taproom and outdoor patio. The primary design goal was to establish a visual connection between the taproom and brewery spaces, allowing bar patrons a clear view of the production process. 

This large brewing facility is located in an industrial warehouse just outside of downtown Raleigh.
