Tellico Brewing Co.

Tellico Brewing Company is a microbrewery in downtown Tellico Plains, near the western end of the Cherohala Skyway. Established in 2025, the brewery grew out of nearly a decade of homebrewing by head brewer Gerry Lynch and assistant brewer Jonnie Lynch, whose beers earned more than 80 competition awards before the brewery opened. The taproom focuses on beer brewed in-house and offers growler fills and crowlers for beer to go. Tellico Brewing does not operate its own kitchen, but guests may bring outside food, and neighboring Peach Street Grill offers an ordering and delivery option to the brewery. The taproom welcomes well-behaved dogs and also keeps nonalcoholic options such as soda, sparkling water, and bottled water available.
