At Good Hops Brewing, our mission is to make and drink damn tasty beer at a comfortable neighborhood gathering place while we fiercely support all things local.
We fashion beer as unique as the island we call home. By exploring our natural curiosity in craft beer styles, we can satisfy your taste buds with fresh new ideas month after month.
Happiness comes from drinking local, and the best way to experience our beer is right here in the Tap Room and Beer Garden. Our patrons can build stronger connections while enjoying a relaxed place to sit, sip, and chat.
We show love for our community by saying “yes” as often as we can to local charities, causes, and life events. Good Hops is all about family and LOCAL thinking! We strive every day to strengthen our connection with each other and with the dirt we call “home.”
Good Hops Brewing is located on the corner of Dow Rd. and Harper Ave. in Carolina Beach, NC.
From Wilmington, NC, come down Carolina Beach Rd. over the bridge (OTB as we locals like to call it), and turn right on Dow Rd. at the CVS. You'll see the brewery on the left, just after the town water tower. You can't miss us!
