The owners of Hatchet, Mike and Greg, met as neighbors while Greg was in Special Forces training and Mike was the Senior Operations Sergeant Major of the 82nd Airborne Division. Both quickly bonded over a love of brewing and their shared experiences in the military. Realizing how powerful brewing and a shared interest in craft beer can be, Mike and Greg wanted to create a place where people can relax, share experiences, and develop new friendships over great beer. So, in 2017, they established Hatchet Brewing Company and celebrated the grand opening with Southern Pines, North Carolina in the fall of 2019.
Forged in Friendship
Hatchet has always been focused on building teams and developing genuine and selfless relationships. It began as a culture on SFODA 3331 and has been at the heart of everything we do with our beer, our employees, and the community – what we consider the Hatchet Team.
