If you're looking for a brewery that can be confusing to find, you might want to stop by Red Hill Brewery while passing through Concord, North Carolina. Akin to a speakeasy, this brewery can be incredibly difficult to find. Located on Union Street, or at least that's what GPS and the website tell you – this brewery takes a little bit of slewthing before you can nestle up to the taproom and order a refreshing drink.
Now, I'm not going to give anything away ... that takes the fun out of it. And just like head brewer Chris Abney says, "We like that. It makes us something similar to a speakeasy. And we're just fine with that."
Once inside, You can select between some brews produced by this 1-barrel brewery that range from IPAs, Belgians, Porters and anything in between. The name Red Hill was taken from a local old tavern, which President George Washington was rumored to lodge at after a night out with Col. Robert Smith.
