tl;dr
Shift core, year-round beer-making to Charlotte’s NoDa Brewing Company and their 60bbl brewhouse.
Fullsteam’s Director of Brewery Operations and Innovation, Jon Simpson, and his crew are heading over to Rocky Mount Mills, brewing new releases, established seasonal beers, and experimental one-offs in batches up to 20 barrels.
When we re-open at the Boiler Room of the ATC in downtown Durham, we'll brew small-batch beers up to five barrels.
Most people say #fall starts when the coffee chain rolls out the pumpkin spice lattes. For me it doesn't start until #Fullsteam Brewery in #Durham taps the Carver sweet potato lager. And good news! It's now on tap at the brewery and their bBoxyard location. They are canning it as well, so keep your eyes out at your local grocery store and bottle shop.
North Carolina brewery with two taprooms (downtown Durham and Boxyard RTP) - both serving food, cocktails, and craft beer brewed using local malt and Southern seasonal ingredients. Our downtown Durham location on Rigsbee Avenue specializes in elevated bar food, burgers, and sandwiches, while Fullsteam at Boxyard RTP makes fluffy square pizza.
Sigh. Fullsteam is moving to ATC, which -- well, ATC isn't that great, IMO. They're also shifting brewing out of town. The sentence about Boxyard RTP is a little unclear with respect to actual brewing, but that seems to be moving to Cary eventually.
If someone else reads that differently, please explain it to me.
It'll take them about a year or more to get ATC built out.

Big #Durham news! #Fullsteam Brewery is relocating to the American Tobacco campus. The Rigsbee taproom closes October 31, but no date is given for the opening of the ATC location. (The Boxyard location remains open.)
This is awesome for ATC which has lacked a proper bar since Tyler's left.
