Eduardo's of Ocracoke

Whalehead Brewery in Corolla stands out as not only a woman- and veteran-owned brewery, but also as a place to enjoy great full-flavored beers and amazing brick-oven pizzas with people who love the Northern Outer Banks. Owner Christin Crowley founded the brewery after 22 years in the Navy. During her career she traveled around tasting the beers of the world, and after retirement she decided to make her own beers in her favorite vacation town of Corolla. Her popular 5-barrel brewhouse, open since 2023, includes a self-pour tap wall, a welcoming industrial-style taproom and a beautiful mosaic tile pizza oven. In addition to brick-oven pizzas, the restaurant serves delicious shareables, soups, salads and more. This is a fun gathering spot in Corolla, with bingo, trivia and live music weekly and frequent community fundraisers and special events.
