“I love how in South Knoxville we watched our neighbors get their dog on a leash and walk to the bar. Or get together with their friends and walk from place to place to place. Instead of a destination, it’s the neighborhood that’s so engaging,” she said.

Similarly, she hopes to engage the neighborhood around Sutherland.

“There are some people around here who don’t know that they could safely and enjoyably walk down the street,” she said. “We want to create this energy and place where Sutherland is the place to be, but it’s also your neighborhood hang spot.”

That means that the new location will listen to the clientele, she said.

“It’s going to be whatever they want it to be,” Everett said. “They’re going to have to tell me.”

That’s the way it worked for South Knoxville’s Trailhead.

“I know what South Knoxville wants because they literally just told us,” she said. “We’re like, ‘yeah, we’ll give you tallboys of Busch,’ because it’s what you want.”

And that means they’ll adapt as the regular crowd finds their spot at Trailhead Marble City.

“So right now, I’m starting real easy,” she said. “Because if we have a lot of regulars who want to drink high-gravity beer, then we’ll make that work for them. We’ll start ordering that. Or if they want nonalcoholic beer options, we’ll start ordering that. It’s what they want.”Tucked between River Sports and Albright Grove Brewing Co, Trailhead Marble City is going to team with its neighbors. River Sports has said they can use its front patio area, and Trailhead will partner with Albright Grove on bringing food trucks there. The bar itself has room for about a dozen chairs, and is cozy. The kind of place you’d visit for an after-work beer.

“It’s here, we just want to offer those services to people,” Everett said.

Personally, I’m pumped for Corey, a former neighbor and friend, for what she’ll bring as the manager for this new location.

“I get to be a big picture person,” she said, “and create new things and create solutions and fix problems. It’s a very exciting movement.”
