The Future is Brewing: How Brew and Feed is Building a Virtual Brewpub Experience
At Brew and Feed, we've always been about pushing boundaries and creating unique experiences for our community. Today, we're thrilled to pull back the curtain and share how we're building a truly innovative "virtual brewpub" – one that combines the best of craft brewing, delicious food, and flexible event experiences, all without the traditional brick-and-mortar overhead.
This isn't just about making great beer; it's about a smart, collaborative approach that benefits everyone. Here's how we're doing it:
1. Alternating Proprietorship: Our Brewing Heart at Ghostface Brewing
Our journey begins with a fantastic partnership: an alternating proprietorship brewing arrangement with Ghostface Brewing. This unique model allows Brew and Feed to brew our own distinct beers using Ghostface's state-of-the-art facility. We legally operate as a separate brewery within their space, controlling our recipes, production, and quality, while leveraging an established brewing infrastructure. This means you get Brew and Feed's unique brews, crafted with precision and passion, without us needing to build our own massive brewery from the ground up. It's efficiency meets craftsmanship!
2. Culinary Excellence from the Food Truck Arena's Commercial Kitchen
Great beer deserves great food, and that's where our collaboration with the
Food Truck Arena's commercial kitchen comes in. We've officially secured our Transitional Permit from the NC Department of Health and Human Services, effective July 23, 2025. This allows Brew and Feed LLC to operate as a "2-Food Stands Establishment", utilizing the Food Truck Arena's facilities in Concord, NC.
This partnership means:
-
Approved Menu: Our full menu, from succulent prime ribeye and smoked beef tenderloin to house-made potato salad, coleslaw, roasted veggies, and deviled eggs, is approved5. We handle raw proteins and ready-to-eat foods with the highest standards.
-
Dedicated Space: We have designated upright cold storage and dry storage columns within the Food Truck Arena.
-
Quality Control: We maintain strict control over food quality, including proper hot and cold temperatures during transport and service.
This setup provides us with a professional, permitted kitchen space without the enormous capital investment of building our own, allowing us to focus on what we do best: creating incredible food.
3. The "Bite Flight" and Beyond: Catering Our Own Events
The culmination of these partnerships is our ability to offer truly immersive experiences, spearheaded by our "Bite Flight" events. Thanks to our new NC Health Permit, we are now fully authorized to handle in-house catering for our own events. This means every "Bite Flight" event, along with other Brew and Feed gatherings, will feature our food prepared, transported, and served directly by our team. This ensures consistency and quality, making your experience seamless and delicious.
Furthermore, we're also approved to cater private, pre-paid events! If you're looking to bring the unique taste of Brew and Feed to your special occasion, get in touch with us.
By embracing this virtual brewpub model, we're not tied to a single physical location for all our operations. Instead, we can pop up, offer unique experiences, and deliver our craft beer and delicious food to you in various exciting ways. It's flexible, efficient, and all about bringing the Brew and Feed passion directly to our community.
We're incredibly excited about this innovative approach and can't wait for you to experience the full flavor of our virtual brewpub!
Cheers,
The Brew and Feed Team
