Our Story

A family tradition,
reimagined

Clan McDonald Brewing grew from a simple belief: that the best beer starts with intention, and the best bread starts with patience. What began as weekend experiments in a home kitchen has grown into a full-fledged brewery and bakery in Fayetteville.

Every batch is small, every loaf is hand-shaped, and every recipe carries the same standard we'd hold our own family to. We brew for people who notice the difference.

IPA

Highland Haze

Citrus-forward West Coast IPA with a piney finish. Double-hopped for intensity without the bitterness.

Bread that
earns its crust

We bake here because beer and bread share the same soul — grain, water, time, and fire. Our sourdoughs are leavened with starters we've tended for years. Our pastries are laminated by hand, every single morning.

Stop by for a loaf after your flight, or pair our sourdough with a pint of Whippoorwill Dark. It's the kind of combination we've been perfecting since day one.
