In 2020, the brewery began renovating one of the historic train cars owned by the Town of Talking Rock – transforming it into a one-of-a-kind taproom experience. After months of hard work, Talking Rock Brewery officially celebrated its Grand Opening on January 15, 2021, and it has been welcoming locals & visitors ever since.
Today, guests can sip their favorite brew inside the charming train car or relax outdoors on the spacious deck and covered pavilion. The pavilion is insulated during the colder months, making it a comfortable stop in every season.
Bringing the whole crew? Talking Rock Brewery is family-friendly, with cornhole, board games, and arcade games to keep everyone entertained. Four-legged friends are welcome, too!
