Founded in 2013 by three friends looking to bring more fun and approachability to craft beer, Hi-Wire Brewing has spent the last 13 years creating award-winning beers while building gathering places for communities with taprooms across NC and in TN. With four consecutive World Beer Cup medals and an expanding portfolio that now includes THC-infused seltzers and contract brewing services, the brewery continues to find new ways to create what brings people together.

“Thirteen years feels like the perfect excuse to throw the biggest party we’ve ever hosted,” said Adam Charnack, Co-Founder and CEO. “We believe that what brings us together is stronger than what pulls us apart. We’re excited to celebrate with the community that’s supported us from the very beginning.”
