About
The legendary Green Man has existed for centuries but it’s no myth that he’s been brewing great beer in Asheville since 1997. As one of North Carolina’s original breweries, Green Man has been producing some of the beer scene’s most iconic ales. Our offerings are consistently recognized for quality as well as loyalty to traditional English styles. Additionally, our brewers strive to bring innovative and exciting new flavors to beer loving folks.

Now open! Continuing our evolution we have constructed a 3 story, 20,000 square ft., packaging hall, a “brewtique”, and an indoor/outdoor top floor taproom that overlooks production and the Blue Ridge Mountains! It is right here on the South Slope, next to “Dirty Jack’s” (which is still open) and our production brewery.

Porter from Green Man Brewery

8/10 — Appearance 10 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Growler pours clear mahogany with ruby red edges and assertive tan head. The aroma is a nicely roasted maltiness, chocolate and sweet malt balls. The taste is pretty smooth and fresh with robust mild chocolate mixing with thin layers of dark roastiness and malt balls. It stays pretty sweet but some roastiness works at drying it out a bit into the finish.
