Description
Hi-Wire Brewing’s journey began in the summer of 2013 at their 2,700 square foot South Slope Brewery located at 197 Hilliard Ave in the heart of Asheville’s South Slope Brewery District. With the 2015 opening of their Big Top Production Brewery up the road, the original Hi-Wire brewhouse is 100% dedicated to brewing award-winning sour and wild ales and one-off small batch beers.

Brewing beers with a connection to the past is important to us. We love to brew traditional styles that honor the heritage of our craft and pay respect to those who have crafted beer before us. Yet, as an American craft brewer, we are elated to participate in the culture of experimentation that has developed here.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 07/04/24. Clear golden with a fast escaping white head. Nose is corn husk, grains, cereals, dusty fruits, vague glue like marzipan nip. Taste comprises sweet edge malts, cereals, light nip of booze, stewed fruits, biscuit crumb, light honey trace. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Pretty solid Licker ... could do with more boost factor though.

Just ridiculously dank, like one of those Sweetwater terpene beers it’s so dripping with weed funkiness. Backed up by notes of citrus and mint, with a touch of caramel and a firm pine bitterness on the finish. A little too close to bong water for my blood.

Pours hazy yellow and smells mainly of tart lime. The flavor is lightly tart with malty sweetness, lime, and salt. Easy drinking. Alright.
