We’re Partnering with NC Courage for an Epic Star Wars Title Night!
This year, the spirit of community has been thriving at Wye Hill Brewing. We’ve seen an incredible turnout in support of our home teams, filling our taproom with cheers and camaraderie. The blend of our guests’ excitement and our staff’s energy has highlighted just how perfectly beer complements the thrill of live sports. That’s why we’re especially excited to announce our partnership with the NC Courage, one of the premier professional women’s soccer teams in the world, for an event that’s out of this galaxy.
On Friday, September 13, join us at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary for our unforgettable NC Courage Title Night, which also happens to be Star Wars Night. Not only will you get to see your favorite soccer stars in action, but you’ll also encounter beloved Star Wars characters and a lively atmosphere that only such a special event can offer.
A Partnership Rooted in Local Pride
This collaboration holds a special place in our hearts at Wye Hill. As a locally grown brewery with deep ties to Raleigh and the Triangle, partnering with the NC Courage is more than just an opportunity—it’s a celebration of local pride and women’s empowerment. Our CEO & Co-Founder, Sara Abernethy, grew up in the Triangle, and her connection to the region’s sports culture runs deep. Having watched the progression of WakeMed Soccer Park from its construction to becoming the home of the Courage, Sara sees this partnership as a full-circle moment.
For Sara, the journey from performing at the stadium as a young girl to now collaborating with the NC Courage as a leader in the craft brewing scene is both personal and inspiring. She’s passionate about supporting organizations that align with Wye Hill’s values, particularly in empowering women in sports and hospitality.
Experience Wye Hill’s Best at NC Courage Games
We’re thrilled to bring two of our fan-favorite brews, Sky Child (a Belgian-style wheat beer) and Acres & Acres (a golden ale), to NC Courage home games this summer. These beers represent the best of what Wye Hill has to offer—crafted with care, rooted in local ingredients, and designed to enhance the experience of watching live sports on a warm summer evening.
Acres & Acres, in particular, has evolved over the years to become a staple of our lineup, making it the perfect choice for a day at the soccer park. Its crisp, refreshing flavor is ideal for enjoying under the summer sun as you cheer on the Courage.
