After tasting the full-bodied, unique craft brews served in the rustic, comfortable atmospheres found in brewpubs throughout the Pacific \Northwest, experienced restaurateur Bob Hiller decided to bring this concept home to Greenville, South Carolina. At this time, state law prohibited the production and sale of alcoholic beverages on the same premises. Mr. Hiller, and a like-minded group of beer lovers, lobbied hard and eventually Brewpubs were legally permitted in our great state.
Then, in 1995, the Blue Ridge Brewing Company officially opened its doors for business. Fourteen years later, Blue Ridge remains a Greenville landmark known for award winning, signature beers and an ever-changing seasonal brew lineup. All of our handcrafted ales are brewed on site by brewmaster Johannes. We believe that a quality beer begins with the ingredients, so we import only the finest authentic hops, malts, and grains from around the world. This process ends in your glass - fresh and locally crafted, the way a fine malted beverage was meant to be enjoyed.
