Easily my favorite spot on our Asheville trip!! This brewery came highly recommended by 2 different friends, and my husband spoke highly of it from his recent trip to Asheville, so it was a must stop. Located right on the main drag, it was convenient to get to and easy to find. They have ample indoor and outdoor seating, but since it was a beautiful day, we chose to sit outside, easily finding a table for the 2 of us. We visited Funkatorium after a morning hike, so we were both hungry and thirsty. Their food menu was pretty substantial and had a lot of great options. I opted for the avocado smash, which hit the spot and was delish. I loved the hearty seeded bread (it was the perfect vehicle) and the avocado paired with the jalapeño cream cheese and the onion vinaigrette made for a wonderful flavor profile. It was a perfectly matched sandwich, and it kept me full for a while! My husband went for the fried chicken sandwich, while he loved and was pleased with the heft of the chicken. He was very content and full after his meal as well! In addition to the awesome food, we of course indulged in some beers. Funkatorium focuses on the sours, which I love - so I went for a flight (my husband did too). I chose the Roulette Flight and my husband the Barrel-Aged Sour Flight. Every pour was perfectly sour and delightful, but my personal favorite was the persimmon beer, although you couldn't go wrong with any of them. In addition to their great taste, the color profile was 10/10 and made for some great photos. Ordering everything was easy - we ordered food on the QR code and drinks at the bar, so very convenient and pretty fast service. Everything about Funkatorium was wonderful, and we really enjoyed our visit here! I would highly, highly recommend Funkatorium for anyone who loves sours or even just unique beers and anyone looking for solid food. Can't wait to return!!
