The Independence 1 Mile Beer Run

Get ready to combine your love for running and beer at The Outer Banks Brewing Station's wild and frothy Independence 1 Mile Beer Run! Imagine this: it's a beautiful Sunday on June 28, 2026, and you're one of the exclusive 125 participants ready to sprint, sip, and celebrate America’s independence.

You'll tackle a total of four ¼ mile runs, each punctuated with a refreshing 12 oz. beverage to keep the spirits high and the legs moving. And it's not just about the run – there’s a post-race backyard party where your entry gets you a commemorative T-shirt and a chance to win prizes if you're the fleetest beer-runner out there!

Don't forget to don your quirkiest patriotic attire and shine in the costume contest. At $48 per adult runner (21+ only, please), this is one American celebration on the run you won't want to miss. Join us under the windmill for a pre-run buzz starting at 10 AM – we're pouring early!
