Brewing up good vibes and quality beer in Carteret County since 2017, Crystal Coast Brewing Company is a family-owned and operated craft brewery using high quality ingredients and real fruit that functions with an MO of providing “visitors to the Crystal Coast as well as all those across the Carolinas with great tasting craft beer.”

Behind the hoppy operation is Matt Poppe, along with his parents Charlie and Sidney Poppe, who jumped on the opportunity to start the brewery about seven years ago and continue to say cheers thanks to tourists flocking into the watering hole during their vacation.
