USA, AL: Ghost Train Brewing Co. moving out, Uproot Brewing to take over location on Birmingham’s 3rd Avenue South

Long-time Birmingham brewery Ghost Train Brewing Co. announced that they will be leaving their original location on 3rd Avenue South to focus on growing their new location at the M2 development on 1st Avenue South. However, the brand-new Uproot Brewing will be taking over the space, Bham Now reported on August 17.

Earlier this year, Ghost Train Brewing Co. opened a second, larger location at M2 on 1st Avenue South. While Ghost Train grew their M2 space, the brewery converted their 3rd Avenue South location to experiment with microbreweries and other projects. Now, the brewery will be shifting all operations to M2.

2616 3rd Avenue South won’t stay empty for long. Uproot Brewing—a new brewpub and kitchen concept from Nate Darnell, head brewer at Ferus Artisan Ales—will be moving in to the location in early fall 2022.

“I’m most excited about creating the beers I love making/drinking and sharing them with our guests and the community. Uproot will initially be just beer, but we have plans to add spirits, wine and eventually an on-site kitchen. I’ve loved that building from Cahaba to Ghost Train, and now it’s an absolute dream to have it be our own as Uproot,” Nate Darnell, Owner & Brewer, Uproot Brewing, said.
