Foraging the land, supporting Southern farmers and buying local malt since 2010. Making beer (and food!) along the way.

Posts by Chief Executive Optimist Sean Lilly Wilson, described by Our State Magazine as "a tall, medium-built man."
"Digging" the first-ever Regenified Supply Chain Summit -- a collective of ag-centric farms and businesses committed to soil health and renewable agriculture. Bonus points for being at Maker's Mark / bourbon country!

From coal power to solar power (not to scale). Excited to have the Spotlight Solar tables at ATC.

Golden hour at Windfall Acres, our informal name for the Chatham County orchard we manage.

Paw paw flowers are kind of metal, to be honest. Flies are attracted to -- and pollinate -- blood red three-lobed flowers that smell of rotted meat.

What's with the price cut? It's so much greener than all the land surrounding it.

Can't wait for this to be what you walk into

Pictured: @fullsteamjon.bsky.social 's sexy hand and regeneratively grown malted barley from our friends at Riverbend. Look for our first Regenified-certified beer (Reset ESB) in a few weeks.

Happy holidays! Hopefully in a year we can have warming drinks under this landmark.

No people pics but what a vibrant lovely crowd. I love Ashe Co. First came here on our first anniversary way back in 1993. Yep. 19 ninety freaking three

Having a blast roasting chestnuts for tonight's Tower Lighting at ATC.

How cool to do this right at the base of the Lucky Strike smokestack.

You can find us in front of the marquee sign!

Can't wait to make these two icons our landmarks.

Best thing I've heard so far: "When you say, 'Meet me under the movie marquee between the Lucky Strike smokestack and water tower,' it sounds like a Hallmark movie."

Can't wait that long to see us at ATC? Would prefer to support us there this coming week? Stay tuned for a special announcement!

"I need to check out your new place."

Surprised by how much we've heard this. Good people: we are a year out from opening at the American Tobacco Campus- it's a big project!

We'd love your support in the meantime: visiting us at Fullsteam - Boxyard RTP and grabbing our beer at retail.

When will Only Pallets join Bluesky that's the real question

A day or so after we closed, I took down the diamond plate F. Symbolic, if nothing else. Didn't realize the imprint that would remain.

Whether or not that's a metaphor is an individual decision.

...the cafeteria theme didn't thematically connect with the striking interior of the Boiler Room.

We had a hard time figuring out logistics and flow.

And we know we're going to have some ebbs and flows in # of patrons, which could lead to a lot of wasted product.

And for a while we informally referred to the brewery/lounge side as "Rigsbee Hall," to make sure it carried our original location's convivial vibe.

But I also want a clean break. A new start.
