Today’s guest wears two very different hats that actually fit together perfectly. Charles Kistler is the co-owner of @vaultedoakbrewing , the popular neighborhood brewery on Monroe Road, known for its community vibe, big patio, and eclectic tap list. When he’s not pouring into the local beer scene, Chuck is a General Account Manager at @tiaa , bringing a financial professional’s discipline to a small business built on fun, hospitality, and community.
@cwkis and his partners have turned Vaulted Oak into a true “third place” with food trucks, trivia, music bingo, live music, and family‑ and dog‑friendly events that connect the surrounding neighborhoods of Oakhurst, Echo Hills, Elizabeth, and Cotswold. Now he’s using that platform for something deeply personal: hosting Pancakes Over Parkinson’s, a fundraiser brunch at the brewery benefiting The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s work to cure Parkinson’s disease.
Chuck, welcome to The BrandBuilders Podcast.

Since 1988, @moistureloc has been protecting North & South Carolina homes from the ground up.
Basements. Crawl spaces. Foundations. Yards. They have seen it all—and solved it all.
For 38 years, MoistureLoc remained family-owned with one standard: do it right. Their reputation wasn’t bought. It was built, earned, and passed down through generations.
They don’t cut corners. They waterproof them.
