Carolina Brewery Announces Four Day 28th Anniversary Celebration at Chapel Hill Brewery Restaurant
Oldest Brewery in the Triangle Carolina Brewery announces their 28th anniversary celebration. This four day event will take place February 6, 2023, through February 9, 2023, at their Chapel Hill Brewery Restaurant. Each day of the anniversary celebration, a new beer brewed on Carolina Brewery’s new brewing system in Chapel Hill will be tapped. On the official 28th Anniversary, Carolina Brewery will tap Toffee Stout. This popular winter beer is brewed with toffee and salutes the brewery’s ongoing partnership with Chapel Hill Toffee. In addition to tapping the perfect delectable stout for a celebration toast, a portion of proceeds from the anniversary celebration will support Dina’s Dynasty Ovarian Cancer Fund.
Carolina Brewery is excited to commemorate 28 years of scratch-made food and innovative craft beer with their customers.

Carolina Brewery CEO Robert Poitras and Chapel Hill Toffee principals Christy and Mark Graves, are all University of North Carolina alumni. Each one of these UNC entrepreneurs had similar plans to pursue small business careers in Chapel Hill and each couldn’t be happier to share in such a unique partnership. “I had the idea a few years ago to do a collaboration with our dark stout beer and their toffee as they pair perfectly together,” said Poitras. “I’ve been a long-time fan of their toffee.”
Christy Graves and husband Mark Graves, agree, “We have, of course, had mutual respect for each other’s businesses as local community members for many years, but we owe our business connection to the fun trend of sweet stout beers!”
Dina’s Dynasty Ovarian Cancer Fund was established in memory of Dina Bray, Christy's mom and Mark's mother-in-law. This fund aims to support UNC Lineberger in developing a reliable screening method for ovarian cancer and providing outstanding care for ovarian cancer patients. When partnering with Chapel Hill Toffee, Carolina Brewery was happy to direct a portion of their proceeds to Dina’s Dynasty to create a one-of-a-kind seasonal stout beer using the flavors of Chapel Hill Toffee.
Chapel Hill Toffee Stout is perfect for dessert, cold winter nights, and snowball fights! It’s what you love about Chapel Hill Toffee, but in a glass. Notes of dark and milk chocolate melt from this beer in harmony with delectable caramel sweetness. Chapel Hill Toffee Stout has an ABV of 6% and an IBU of 20. It is well balanced, stoutly-smooth, and perfectly crisp. This beer is a must try this winter season. Chapel Hill Toffee Stout will be on draft starting early February at roughly 100 NC restaurants and bars; these locations can be found here. It will be available for some to-go sales through growlers in crowlers at Carolina Brewery’s Brew Pubs and select Lowes Foods Beer Dens.
