Waterline Brewery

Waterline Brewing Co. brews a wide variety of well-balanced styles including a refreshing kölsch-style ale, a full-bodied red ale, a very unique Coffee and Cream pale ale, and a rotating lineup of IPAs and flavored Goses. True to their motto “Brewed Under the Bridge,” the brewery occupies a restored historic 1940s warehouse located under the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge just a few blocks from the heart of downtown. Waterline Brewing Co. features a climate-controlled indoor tap room, large outdoor beer garden, indoor and outdoor music stages, and a recently upgraded brew house. Ask for them on tap around town or visit the source for a flight, a pint, or a 32oz crowler you can take home or to the beach! Visit their Instagram, Facebook, or website to checkout the schedule of live music, food trucks, and special events. They have plenty of free parking. If you are downtown, take a scenic walk or jump on the free trolley to the Castle Street stop, only a block away from the brewery.
