Nickelpoint Brewery on West St (the cell tower lot)

Thanks for this post, please keep us in the loop. And now it looks like I’m going to have to become a Nickelpoint fan. I have zero choice :slight_smile:

I almost snapped a picture of this side the other day, but it looks like they cut out a bunch of the wall sections on this interior side. Fingers crossed for some big garage doors that can open up when the weather is nice!!

It’ll be done in 20 years when you move back. Perfect!

I didn’t want to mention 615 Peace…but I heard that the construction guys were in such demand that they moved over to Nickelpoint.

About a year ago it was also mentioned on the Raleigh Magazine podcast that Nickelpoint planned to rename to “Double Decker Brewing”. I heard the same the last time I went there and a lot of their merch was gone as they were planning a branding change. Still hasn’t happened yet, but I’m excited to see the renovations are moving along to this cell tower lot space.

For anyone interested in craft beer news around the Triangle - I started a subreddit (r/trianglencbeer) a couple years back with news/happenings in that world. Also have some maps pinned to the top of that page which show where all of the area’s breweries/taprooms & bottleshops are located.

Appears they are looking for some investment help / partner.

Were the owners of Nickelpoint doing the renovation or was this an investor renovating and Nickelpoint moving in?
