Waterline Brewery

Waterline Brewing Co. brews a wide variety of well-balanced ales on its 20-barrel brew house. Locally famous for its refreshing Kölsch-style ale, the brewery also features a full-bodied Oatmeal Stout, a unique Coffee and Cream blonde ale, a delicious traditional Hefeweizen, and a rotating lineup of IPAs, goses, and seasonals. Guests can build a flight, sip a pint, or grab a 4-pack, 6-pack, or 32 oz. crowler of a new favorite to-go. For the non-beer drinker, Waterline offers wines, ciders, seltzers, mixed cocktails, and non-alcoholic options.

“Brewed Under the Bridge” perfectly describes Waterline’s unique location. The brewery occupies a restored historic 1940s warehouse beneath the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge, just blocks from downtown at the Castle and Front Street stop on the free Downtown Trolley route.
