New Realm Brewing Purchases Brewing Equipment from Foreclosed Green Flash Location

Atlanta's recently opened New Realm Brewing Co., which debuted its first canned beers last month, announced the purchase of brewing equipment previously employed by Green Flash Brewing Co. in its recently shuttered Virginia Beach location.

The brewery is currently "exploring options for the location of the equipment and a potential new taproom," according to a release from the brewery. 

New Realm was founded by Carey Falcone, Bob Powers and former Stone Brewing Brewmaster Mitch Steele in 2017. The full release from the brewery is below.

ATLANTA – April 19, 2018 – Following its successful launch onto the craft beer scene in the heart of Atlanta, New Realm Brewing Company is taking steps to expand its brewing capacity. The southeast based craft brewery, founded by Carey Falcone, Bob Powers and Mitch Steele, recently purchased brewing equipment located at the former Green Flash Brewing Company facility in Virginia Beach. New Realm is currently exploring options for the location of the equipment and a potential new taproom.

“This equipment presents an incredible opportunity to expand our capacity in a meaningful way while staying committed to our roots,” said Carey Falcone, CEO and co-founder of New Realm Brewing. “New Realm is proud to be part of the Atlanta community and we are enthusiastic about the opportunity to serve more New Realm fans.”

“We continue to invest in our Beltline brewery and restaurant with additional team members and new 60-bbl expansion tanks. But the reality is that, thanks to the incredible support of New Realm’s patrons and fans in Atlanta, we are capacity and space constrained in our current location,” said Mitch Steele, Brewmaster and co-founder of New Realm Brewing. “We are excited about the ways this new equipment and capacity will enable us to deliver the same high-quality beers while increasing our ability to innovate and create new beers for local fans.”

“This equipment acquisition is a unique opportunity to meet growing demand, while continuing to focus on quality and consistency. This new equipment will allow our team to brew even more of the beer that we feel passionate about,” said Chief Commercial Officer and co-founder, Bob Powers.

New Realm is focused on positively impacting the communities in which it operates, and maintains a firm commitment to environmental sustainability, supporting local, independent craft communities and the art and science of great craft brewing.

New Realm beers are currently available at its Beltline brewery and restaurant, as well as bars throughout Atlanta and select retail locations in Georgia. The brewery and restaurant is located at 550 Somerset Terrace NE (30306) with reservations accepted via OpenTable on New Realm’s website.
