PLOW-TO-PINT BEER FROM THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH
Fullsteam is a Durham, North Carolina production brewery and tavern inspired by the agricultural and culinary traditions of the South.

Our mission is to craft a distinctly Southern beer style using local farmed goods, heirloom grains, and Southern botanicals. Like what, you wonder? We're making beer with sweet potatoes, corn grits, summer basil, and malted barley house-smoked over hickory. Other successful "plow to pint" experiments to-date include beer brewed with scuppernong grapes, persimmon, paw paw, rhubarb and more.

Ultimately, our vision is for our best-selling beer to be year-round, sustainable, scalable, distinctly Southern beer, and brewed 100% with local ingredients. That's the quest. We're a long ways from realizing this vision, but we hope you enjoy the adventure as much as we expect to.

If you enjoy experimental, boundary-pushing beers, check out the Southern Apothecary series.

If you prefer easy-drinking, classicbeers, you'll enjoy our Workers' Compensation series: El Toro cream ale, Rocket Science IPA, Carver sweet potato lager, Working Man's Lunch, and our flagship Southern Lager (which we simply call Fullsteam).
