## About

Heist opened its doors in 2012 as Charlotte’s first Craft Brewpub. Originally brewing on a 10HL German brewhouse, we have opened a 30 barrel production facility. Over the years, our focus has changed from traditional Belgian styles to hazy IPAs, heavily fruited sours, and imperial stouts, thanks to our signature brew: CitraQuench'l.

Our original location features an extensive craft cocktail menu, as well as a multi-chef inspired menu with a wide variety of dining options from beer cheese and wings to woodfired flatbreads and craft sandwiches.

Above all, Heist is an experience. Enjoy, and cheers!
