"A brewery on Collier Avenue that served as the testing ground for regular pop-ups, helping the chef build a fervent following in Asheville. Its owners purchased the adjacent former hardware store for a live-music venue called Eulogy, creating the real-estate opportunity the chef used to establish a permanent brick-and-mortar restaurant next door." - Kay West
"As a trendy South Slope midafternoon pick-me-up, Burial Beer feels like a grungy, inclusive party rather than a frat scene: super social and energetic, it’s a great spot to make friends (or hang with your own) if you find a spot early; I love a Surf Wax or any imperial stout, whether packed inside or at the bustling outdoor bar." - Kayleigh Ruller
"Burial Beer sits in the South Slope district of downtown Asheville, popular for multiple breweries within walking distance from each other and allowing for easy bar crawl action. With its large murals and empty trucks and cars used as seating, Burial Beer brings a fun atmosphere to complement its award-winning IPAs like the Surf Wax. In addition to the brewery, Burial Beer has opened Forestry Camp, a newer restaurant in Biltmore Village featuring a menu to pair with an extensive beverage menu including its very own Burial Beer." - Barbara Skidmore
