Try Some New Brews

Four Saints Brewing Company

Take a break from your usual haunts to see what’s brewing in Asheboro. Four Saints Brewing Company has a simple mission: to create great beer for good people.

CEO and Owner Joel McClosky said that unlike many breweries, he and his business partner Andrew Deming aren’t concerned with trendiness.

“We focus on classic-style beers, some with a bit of a modern twist,” he said. “It doesn’t mean we’re focusing on the newest fad, it’s more great beer that people will come back to.”

Four Saints has six year-round, award-winning beers: Potter’s Clay Amber Ale, German Hefeweizen, Omie Blonde Ale, Genesis Belgian-style Dubbel, Upper Road and Stout One.

Patrons can also try a variety of seasonal and limited-edition brews.

McClosky said he aims to create a homelike atmosphere in the taproom, which he describes as laid back and family-friendly.

You won’t find a TV at Four Saints. Instead, it’s all about making connections with other people.

To facilitate those relationships, the brewery hosts weekly trivia nights, run clubs and live music.

McClosky hopes that by the time a customer leaves his brewery, they feel as though they’re leaving home.

“There are no strangers at Four Saints,” Mc- Closky said. “It’s just some friends you haven’t met yet.”
