Good Hops 5k’ish Beer Run 2026 – Carolina Beach, NC 2026

Join us Father's Day Weekend (Saturday, June 20th) for the 11th annual Good Hops “Will Run for Beer” trail race followed by post-race awards and festivities at the brewery! This 5k(ish) beer run/walk will start at Good Hops Brewing & run through the trails in the spectacular Carolina Beach State Park. We look forward to seeing all of our repeat runners again and hope to meet new participants as well. Come for a fun morning, stay to hang out with some familiar faces, and be sure to meet the new owners of Good Hops! All proceeds benefit the Carolina Beach Elementary School, and Friends of the State Park. We like to keep this race small, organic and affordable so we hope you enjoy the "old school" feel of the run/walk. Friday, June 12th - Guaranteed t-shirt for runners registered by Friday, June 12th . We will do our best to accommodate late registrations, but we cannot guarantee you a t-shirt. So, sign up early because the t's are always super rad. Shirts are adult unisex xs through xxl.
