Description
The brewery (location) is closed, beer is being brewed in Alabama @ Oyster City Brewing.
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.

2014 RBWG Draft at the brewery tasting room. Mostly clear copper with a white head. Aroma of resiny pine hops. The flavor carries the same light pine bitterness through to the dry finish.

Draft - Grapefruit with a bit of pine. Orange with a big head. Lots of grapefruit and bitter pith. Not really getting the malts to make this red in anything but color. Still a decent IPA though.
