Outer Banks Brewing Station on South Croatan Highway in Kill Devil Hills has been an Outer Banks institution since it opened in 2001, combining a wind-powered craft brewery — the first wind-powered brewery in the United States — with a scratch-made pub food kitchen in a beach town setting that makes it one of the most distinctive brewpubs in the country. It appeared in Season 15, Episode 12 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Pubs and Grub,” which aired November 5, 2012. Guy Fieri found an Outer Banks brewery doing serious pub food from scratch alongside house-brewed beers with the quality and creativity that earns a beach town restaurant its year-round loyal following beyond the summer season.

What to Eat
The Crab Dip with warm bread reflects the Outer Banks’ Atlantic seafood access and is the appetizer most tables start with. The Beer-Braised Short Rib with house-brewed ale and seasonal accompaniments is the pub food centerpiece that earns the kitchen its reputation beyond beach bar fare. The Fish Tacos with fresh Atlantic catch are the coastal option that earns year-round loyalty from the local community. The House-Brewed Beers — produced with wind power — are the item most beer-focused visitors come specifically for. Find an Outer Banks hotel on Travelocity.
