What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?
Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives visited this Outer Banks brewery-restaurant on the January 14, 2013 episode "Savory Sensations," spotlighting German-style sausages, schnitzel, and other beer-garden fare made under North Carolina's German Reinheitsgebot brewing standard. Founded in 1986, the business became North Carolina's first microbrewery and later added a butcher shop and organic farm at its Currituck County site, operating continuously under the same ownership for more than three decades before this closure was reported. According to the Outer Banks Voice, published 2023-08-21, the restaurant and beer garden at that location had closed with no plan to reopen because of the repairs the building needed. The same article reported that ownership was developing a new taproom inside the renovated Hotel Manteo, with an early-2024 opening targeted; no later source located confirms whether that taproom opened.
