    Resting Pulse Brewing Company

    Opelika, Alabama, United States

Resting Pulse is a term that not only reflects our background but also reflects the image we are striving to achieve. Our vision for the Resting Pulse Brewing Company is to create an environment where you can come to find your “resting pulse” - to relax and spend time with friends and family while exploring new and exciting local craft beers.

    Red Clay Brewing Company

    Opelika, Alabama, United States

    Red Clay Brewing Company is a brewery and taproom located in downtown Opelika, Alabama. Red Clay Brewing has its roots firmly entrenched in the South. The founders of the Company were all born and raised here. The “red clay” that is native to this region of the south and what we all knew so well growing up became a natural moniker for our business. Red Clay Brewing simply represents us: our history and the South we love and call home.
