Established Breweries with Real Estate in Booming Wake County Markets
Business Description
Step into ownership of one of the Triangle’s most distinctive and fully built-out craft brewery operations. Norse Brewing Company offers a rare opportunity to acquire not only a strong brand with deep community roots but also the real estate behind both of its vibrant locations (Wake Forest and Zebulon, NC).
This is a turnkey business and real estate package that would be extremely difficult to replicate in this exceptional market.
Overview:
Two Locations Included:
Wake Forest: 8,222 SF brewery, restaurant, and event space at 203 N Brooks St
Zebulon: 3,366 SF Norse Longhouse taproom at 120 N Arendell Ave
Real Estate Included: You own both properties. No leases. No landlords.
Attractive Assumable SBA Loan: Opportunity to add supplemental financing on this transferrable, low-cost loan.
Fully staffed with experienced team across both venues.
Established brand identity with Scandinavian-inspired design, menu, and atmosphere.
Loyal customer base and strong community presence in two rapidly growing towns.
Why Norse Brewing?
With high ceilings, custom woodwork, a full kitchen, and a strong event business, the Wake Forest flagship is an anchor of the downtown district. The Zebulon location, just minutes from Raleigh and near the new home of the Carolina Mudcats, is perfectly positioned to benefit from major nearby growth.
Each location has been meticulously built out with quality materials, design consistency, and operational efficiency. The Norse brand resonates with customers looking for more than just beer; it offers an experience, a community, and a story.
Investment Highlights:
Immediate cash flow from day one.
Scalable growth potential: expand distribution, increase events, extend hours.
Strategic locations in Wake County: one of the fastest-growing counties in the U.S.
Strong infrastructure: kitchen, brewing systems, POS, staff, and processes already in place.
Exceptionally high growth markets.
The Opportunity:
This is an ideal acquisition for an experienced operator, strategic buyer, or investor looking to enter or expand in the craft brewing and hospitality space. With real estate included, proven performance, and major financial incentives, Norse Brewing offers a rare combination of security and upside.
Ownership transition support is available, and both locations are currently operational with management and staff in place.
This is more than a business, it’s a fully realized vision, now available to the next owner ready to carry it forward.
Serious inquiries only. NDA and proof of funds required to access financials.
