We finally got a look inside the (new) Old Cigar Warehouse, and we’re taking you with us. New Realm Brewing Co. is opening this month (stay tuned for an official date). In addition to bringing new food, cocktails, and craft beers to Greenville, we were really excited to see how the brewery transformed a Greenville landmark. Watch our full sneak peek.

We love the balance of new while still maintaining the building’s historic character. The New Realm team tells us honoring the building’s history was important to them during this renovation project.

While the main restaurant and brewery are opening soon, there is still more to come. A speakeasy serving craft cocktails is next, and the outdoor entertainment space with a big screen and stage is the phase after that. Cheers.
