“Not all those who wander are lost.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien
Whether sipping an ice-cold lager overlooking the sea on the Ionian coast, draining a pint of rich, smokey stout while laughing with friends in a Dublin pub, or settling into an Adirondack chair on a deck in the Blue Ridge Mountains, IPA in hand...
No matter where you go, there is nothing like experiencing life, laughter, friends, and culture in the company of great beer.
Local Time Brewing is your home away from home, where you can sit and enjoy the camaraderie of old friends while making new ones and planning your next adventure.

Your Master Brewer
As you discover more about Devin, you'll learn that his passion and excitement for life and the world around us play as significant a role in his creative inspiration.
"I love storytelling and music. Like a good beer, a good story has a depth of personality, history, character, and often a hint of mystery. Like a great song, it can be a simple note or a complex harmony; there are lows, break-downs, and crescendos (of flavor). Beer has to work across the palette."
Known for developing award-winning Ambers, Devin began his career in 2010, earning high marks at IDB in 2011, and he has been a master brewer in the Triangle area ever since.
"There's a reason behind every ingredient."
