A journey shared is a journey enjoyed

Eno River brewing river shot

As long as you can find the river, you can find your way home.

We believe that a brewery is more than just a place to enjoy great beer—it’s the soul of a community. In the Spring of 2021, the passion we had for connection evolved into an obsession to create a vibrant and inclusive haven in Hillsborough. We dreamed of a place where people could share a drink and revel in the goodness of life with one another. 

Say hey to Hillsborough’s
brewery.

Our beers, like our values, grew from this seed of community love. We planted our stake in the ground—do it right, or don’t do it at all. So we rolled up our sleeves and began crafting benchmark beers with a fresh perspective. Eno River Brewing opened its doors in the Summer of 2023 with a refreshing approach to beer—it doesn’t have to be complicated, just undeniably good. As makers and doers, we are passionate about local ingredients and flavorful styles that celebrate our Carolina roots. 

HONORING THE LAND AND OUR COMMUNITY

The Eno River is a winding old soul worthy of care and respect. When we built our brewery near its banks, we fully embraced our role as Earth enthusiasts and stewards of this remarkable place. ERB doesn’t have a beer garden. It’s more like a beer landscape, where lawn vibes are an actual thing and treelaxing is second nature. We are in love with this magical patch of land that nurtures, inspires, and connects people in weird and wonderful ways.

ERB is a place where friends can gather, clink glasses, and be themselves. For us, hospitality isn’t a stuffy transaction. It’s the art of scooting out a chair and building lifelong friendships one superb pour at a time. 

Here, we saved a spot for you.
