“We want to be a business that puts people first,” Morrissey said. Wye Hill’s brewing operation occupies the same building as its restaurant and popular patio, so Morrissey already knew the team on the other side of the wall, but the experience brought her closer together with those supportive men, too. And how cool that our male director thought of us and is passionate about us having this opportunity, especially with so few women in the brewing industry.” “In an industry that’s very fast-moving, it was really cool to do something fun and different and all take time to be together. “It gave all of us leads a chance to spend time together,” she said. Many of the women didn’t have previous brewing experience, Abernethy said.įor Erin Morrissey, Wye Hill’s general manager, this was “a very unique and timely project.” The brew day served as a professional development experience, but also a field trip and bonding opportunity of sorts. The choice of blood orange is intentional too, which is “pretty on the nose in terms of menstruation cycles” but also acknowledges that cisgender and transgender women “bleed spiritually or physically,” Abernethy said. Named after the “mic drop moment” when former Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said there would be enough women on the court “when there are nine” and referencing the nine women who created it, the hoppy When There Are Nine blood orange pale wheat ale uses a hop blend from the Pink Boots Society and benefits the local No Woman, No Girl Initiative. What they came up with proved to be enough of a hit that Abernethy’s team had to brew a second batch and is working to get it back on draft at Glasshouse (in addition to Wye Hill). The wheels quickly started turning in Abernethy’s head, and with input from her team, the full concept started to form - a Wye Hill beer made by the nine women in leadership roles in the company, released on draft and in cans. The idea: a brew day for the restaurant group’s women. So when her director of brewery operations Greg Winget called her with an out-of-the-ordinary idea, she jumped at it. “It has been an enormously trying and difficult few years,” Abernethy said with a sigh. As a new parent and the owner of three restaurants, she often feels like she’s “running around, playing Whac-A-Mole.” As anyone in the industry can attest, the last few years have been particularly trying, all the more for a relative newcomer like Abernethy, who owns the popular Wye Hill Kitchen & Brewing ( 201 South Boylan Avenue) in central Raleigh and recent additions Glasshouse Kitchen and Twisted Ladder in south Durham.
