Our Story
A lot of breweries get their start in a garage. We’re pretty sure Ponysaurus is the only one that started in an attic.
Above the entrance to The Cookery in Durham, with nothing but a scissor lift and a questionable amount of confidence, we set out in 2013 to make great craft beer for people who take beer seriously—and not much else.
From that small beginning, Ponysaurus has grown into a destination taprooms in Durham, Raleigh and Wilmington, rooted in curiosity, quality, and a willingness to do things a little differently.
Our Brewery: Forward-thinking and backward-tasting
Our 6,000 square foot brewery specializes in a combination of traditional and experimental American, Belgian and European style beers, yielding an approach that can be described as forward-thinking and backward-tasting. Operating from a fifteen barrel brewhouse, the production facility is equipped with a state of the art lab, a full time lab technician that carries out a comprehensive sensory analysis program, advanced fermentation technology, and a Wild Goose canning line.
Our beer is sold and distributed in kegs, 4-packs of 16oz. cans, 6-packs of 12oz. cans, and specialty release bottles, in addition to highly limited quantities of barrel aged products that are offered seasonally.
