As a beer lab, our mission is to use the science of beer to build community, educate beer drinkers, and create the highest-quality beer possible. Beyond bringing people into our taprooms for a delicious beverage, we are deeply involved in our local Durham/RTP community, assisting and contributing to both STEM and community-minded projects and organizations. The core values of our company are to build community, to create happiness, & to be customer focused in all that we do.
