Ol’ Beautiful Rebuilds After Fire

Ol’ Beautiful Brewing Co. is poised to reopen its beloved taproom after a devastating fire in June 2024, with the landlord submitting a development permit to rebuild at the original 12th Street Southeast location. Though the fire caused major damage, the brewery kept operating from an industrial park, buoyed by an outpouring of community support — including increased liquor sales, a GoFundMe raising nearly $26K, and generous donations from fellow breweries like Cold Garden and Toolshed. With plans to restore the iconic white brick exterior and outdoor patio, co-owner Chris Carroll says the city is likely to approve the permit quickly, seeing the value of keeping a thriving local business alive.
