At Harlem Beer Distributing NC our mission is to provide equitable and attentive distribution and logistics services to independent craft breweries in North Carolina. We’re dedicated to offering extraordinary beers with empowering stories to reflect the flavor and uniqueness of the craft and communities that inspire them.
Our story began 6 years ago, when we met the first African American woman to own a craft beer. She expressed the difficulties in bringing her award-winning beer to market in a male dominated industry. HBD successfully expanded the products to North Carolina and Virginia, all while building a brand that customers rallied behind!
These days, commercials aren’t driving brand awareness, however grassroots marketing, tastings, and social media are. We're proud of the many long-standing partnerships that helped sustain our growth both online and on-premises. We strive to compete favorably and professionally and pride ourselves on continuous growth and excellent service!

Nucleated Pint Glass with HB láser etching inside bottom of glass.
The HB laser etched “nucleated” glass provides a great sensory experience. When beer is poured onto the etched bottom, this creates more bubbles that last longer and therefore produces a more stable head.

Multi-platinum artist Raekwon the Chef has created a new standard in luxury with Licataa sparkling wine. Inspired by his love of Italian culture and cuisine, he sought out Cantine Ceci, a family-owned winery with 80 years of history to produce a rich, bold, sparkling red wine.
Situated in the rolling hills outside Parma, Italy, Cantine Ceci farms in the traditional way, with vineyards planted to catch the sun, carefully monitored throughout the growing season before each grape is harvested by hand at the perfect moment of ripeness.

Negus Brewing Co, creator of Negus® Premium Craft Lager, announced today the most exciting product launch in the companies history with the release of Negus® ADDIS TEFF AMBER ALE, a new style of beer, brewed with Teff grown in the USA.
After years of research and testing, Negus Brewing Co., have managed to create this one of kind beer using the wonderful grain Teff, which is the smallest and one of the most nutritious grains in the world. As we all know it is a centerpiece in Ethiopian/Eritrean cuisine in the form of Injera, but due to its gluten free nature, nutrition profile and unparalleled versatility, it has managed to catch the attention of the world, with such acclaims and accolades as “the next super food”.
Unfortunately, not all attention is good, as evident in the recent widely reported case, in which a Dutch company attempted to patent Teff as their own but failed due to the hard fought court battle by the Ethiopian government. Although, the Ethiopian side won the case, it’s imperative that we take ownership of our grain, innovate and introduce it to the world ourselves. In addition, we have seen big companies capitalize on it by making gluten free pasta, bread, pancake etc, but innovative applications of Teff has been null by Ethiopians until now. In that regard, Negus Brewing Co plans to continuously innovate and bring Teff to the world stage in the brewing application and more.
