Foothills Brewery to start Running Club


Two things we love? Drinking local beer and running (please note, unless you are feeling adventurous, we do not recommend enjoying both activities at the same time). Luckily, Foothills Brewing is planning to open a facility   that will allow us to grab a cold one after work and meet up fellow runners for a workout! Talk about a win-win. 

According to Catherine Carlock at the Triad Business Journal: 

"Fast-growing Foothills Brewing is moving closer to establishing a tap room and creating an indoor/outdoor destination for visitors from all over. The Winston-Salem-based brewery in June closed on the $1.8 million purchase of its 48,000-square-foot brewing facility at 3800 Kimwell Drive, a facility in the Stratford Industrial Park off South Stratford Road which Foothills had long leased.

With the facility purchase comes a 4.5-acre tract of land that Foothills wants to convert into an indoor/outdoor 'destination' area with food trucks, live music and bocce ball, said Ray Goodrich, Foothills’ head of marketing.   They’ll also be starting a running clubThe goal is to open the tasting room and accompanying facility by the end of the year, though Goodrich said that could be pushed to early 2015.

Yep, consider us sold. We will be counting down the days until this super-facility opens!
