Description
DID WE MENTION WE’RE NOT A BREWERY, BUT A BEVERAGE COMPANY?
While we’re the most passionate about beer, the root of our curiosity lies in fermentation itself. To feed that thirst, we’ve been working with local and regional artisans of the non-beer kind, and are very excited about this side-venture we’ll be taking to Downtown Asheville. While our main focus is definitely beer, we’ll also be trying our hands at a whole smattering of Wine, Cider, and Mead, as well as non-alcoholic beverages.
We’ve got a 15bbl Brewhouse and a 3bbl Pilot Brewhouse, a dedicated Wild/Funky Barrel Cellar, and fermenters ranging from wine barrels up to 30bbl stainless tanks.
WE’RE DEAD-FOCUSED ON BRINGING YOU EQUAL AMOUNTS OF OLD SCHOOL AND NEW SCHOOL.
That means Lagers, IPAs (clear AND hazy), Wild Ales, Big Ol’ Stouty Stouts, Super Sessions, Chippy Boiz, and everything in between. With that said, we can’t wait to work with local farmers, artisans, and makers in an effort to expand our non-beer side of things. Come explore the other side of fermentation with us!
Expect the unexpected…and…well, I guess now it’s actually expected? Definitely don’t expect any more vowels, though. Did that joke land? Dammit.

I need to do more homework on this one. Hazy, pale gold, dull pour. Aromatic, sorta floral, saline. Deep saline, lemon, slighty savory, plastic, indifferent barrel. Low forced carb, thin. Could be good with a bigger ending note.

Not bad, with a nice crisp pils front with notes of white bread, honey, lemon, and wildflowers, followed by a mild floral bitterness and some baked grain in the finish. Won’t wean me off of Bibo, but nice.

Can. A- Grassy, grains, faint citrus. A- Yellow color, clear liquid, white head. T- Hoppy, grassy, grains, minerals. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, bitter finish. O- This had quite the hop bite to it. Pretty crisp but definitely a bold pils. Not particularly a fan but I could see this having a cult following locally.

$4-ish single from Appalachian. Canned 5/22. In the fridge all of July. Pint glass @home. In between hazy & jellied, fluffy white over the top head. Potent orange & lemon, herbal nose. Soft saline, slight lemon, cracker, astringent floral hops, bit of onion. Frothy, medium acidity, soft texture, almost dry; lingering pith. Decent.
