Established in 1999
It all began with a Christmas gift in 1994. Billy Pyatt, a notoriously hard guy to buy presents for, fell in love with the carboys, pots, hydrometers, grains, hops, chemistry, and physics involved in brewing. His brother, Scott, fell right in with him. Their love became an obsession that could only be resolved by going pro – not an easy thing to do in 1999!
We have tasting Rooms in Asheville, Morganton and Charlotte NC. Our kegs & cans are distributed in TN, NC, SC, GA and AL.

Draft at the source in Charlotte. Hazy light red color off white head. Subtle berry aroma. Taste has as much sweetness as tartness. A Berliner for cowards

Bottle @ Malt & Mold sampling. Pours faintly murky brown with small foamy beige head, faint caramel aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter roasted malt taste, thin smooth body, long bitter finish. Very good.

On tap at Catawba, pours a hazy orange with a small white head. Nose is fairly subtle, with tart plum and a touch of lacto. Flavour is along the same lines, with simple tart plum and a hint of lacto. Not a lot of depth, but reasonably tasty and clean.
