| Walstonburg, N.C. – Corporate Ladder Brewing Company announces plans to operate their first North Carolina location in the NW Greene Industrial Park in Greene County. This innovative brewery recently acquired the former Billy Beer building, a facility covering approximately 10,000 square feet and 4 acres of land within the park. Corporate Ladder Brewing Company, located in Florida, is renowned for its selection of craft beers, which include fruited sours, adjunct stouts, barrel-aged sours & stouts, hazy IPAs, and lagers.
