History

Lookout Brewing opened the doors on May 1, 2013. John Garcia, along with his wife, family, and close friends, remodeled a barren strip mall unit into the current tasting room and brewery starting in February of 2013. The first steps were very difficult and could not have been possible without the help of Garcia's parents, Rich and Patricia Jones. They temporarily moved to Black Mountain to help with the structuring of the company and the build out and remodeling. Once the business opened, Rich and Patricia decided to follow suit and open Good Hops Brewery in Carolina Beach, NC. As a family of brewers, the two companies work together daily on recipes and procedures to enhance the quality and efficiency of both entities.

Specialties

Lookout Brewing is constantly striving to develop new and creative recipes. The brewery has come up with over 80 quality beers ranging from smoked Beer-B-Q Rauchbiers to champagne tasting Saisons. Our personal favorites tend to favor hoppy beers and that inevitably shines through on the tap list in the tasting room. We don't limit our scope by any means and try to make the best examples of all styles. We love to create brews focused around local and seasonal offerings. Specials: Tuesday - $1 off Select Pints Wednesday - Live Music with James Hammel Thursday - Discounted Pitchers We also have live music throughout the week, check our website and Facebook page for our calendar of events!

Local place with trivia night weekly, music bingo weekly, and other great events. Friendly staff behind the bar, convenient with ample nearby parking.

Extremely friendly staff, deceptively comfortable wood chairs, beautiful tables and honestly, I just love the feel of the taproom. I get a kind of cabin + beach vibe, but without all the bugs and...

Love this place! They recently gave themselves a makeover (especially the bar area) and it's beautiful. Upon entering it is well organized- there can be quite a few people in here but it doesn't...
