"Wicked Weed Brewing started out as a small company but has greatly expanded over the years after being purchased by AB InBev, the company that owns Budweiser. Now, it’s one of Asheville’s most recognizable craft breweries. Visitors will enjoy the warm atmosphere, from the exposed brick walls and high wood-beamed ceilings to the long tasting table in front of the bar flooded with natural light. For something different, try the Farmhouse Cider or the Appalachia Session IPA, and don’t miss the dog-friendly outdoor patio." - MATADOR_NETWORK

"This nationwide brewing company houses four locations within the Asheville area. Wicked Weed initially opened in 2012 offering West Coast IPAs and barrel-aged sours, expanding into a sour program with its sister brewery known as the Funkatorium on the South Slope of Asheville. A full kitchen is available, as well as long waits to get in the door for this nationally distributed company. Early arrival is recommended to beat the lines." - Barbara Skidmore

Great beer and cool atmosphere. Good service. Love this place, but this time the food was just mid. I’ve been here so many times that I would typically give Wicked Weed 5 ⭐️. The burger was just ok, kinda dry. Good, creamy Mac n cheese. Fried chicken sandwich was great but too much oil. The homemade chips with ranch were very good though. Definitely recommend going if you’re in Asheville!

It was absolutely fantastic! As a family with young kids, we were pleasantly surprised by how family-friendly the atmosphere was. The staff went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome, even offering kid-friendly options to keep our little ones entertained. The service was exceptional—our server was knowledgeable, attentive, and super friendly. The beer selection was top-notch, with something for every palate. From IPAs to stouts, each brew was clearly crafted with care. The outdoor seating area was spacious and perfect for families, and the vibe was relaxed and inviting. We can’t recommend them enough—whether you’re traveling with kids or looking for a great spot to enjoy amazing beer, this place is a must-visit in Asheville!

We were a group of 7 adults and 3 kids dinned here on 4th of July busy time. Ordered few beers which were great. But the food was not the best and it was just okay. We have ordered Nachos, Black Bean Burgers, Chicken Burger, Boiled Peanuts, Chicken Wings, Kale Salad and Few other side items. Chicken burger was quite spicy and my friend could not finish it which he usually eats quite spicy food. Overall drinks and ambiance were good but food could have been better. Service was decent.

We went around 7 PM on a weekday in June. We were seated right away. Our server was friendly and our food came quickly. They do have a few vegetaian options for food. They also have a large beer/alcohol list available.

I do have to say that Wicked Weed is one of my favorite brewing companies, so going in, I kinda knew that I was gonna enjoy visiting. Whether it had good or bad cuisine, it would all be washed down with something delectable. Fortunately, the fare was incredible! A one page single sided menu is a restaurant I'm interested in! This means they put thought and care into what makes it and what doesn't. Everything does appear to rotate as well, and the brews are no exception. We loved seeing some beers that aren't part of their mainline bread & butter (so to speak) and ended up grabbing a couple growlers of them for the road (not literally on the road). The food was incredible though, we got the Beef Tartaré, which was outstanding, the Gryo Burger (a special at the time), the Fish N' Chips and the Brewpub Burger. Everything was cooked spot on (well, everything that was supposed to be cooked) and tasted amazing. We had an incredible experience and my only compliant would be that this restaurant is too far from my house.

A great bar in the brewery district of Asheville. The beers can be a bit sour so we recommend to confirm with the barman this point as he will insist at the beginning, and you should listen 😁 It is a dog friendly place which is really nice. Inside there is a small shop where you can buy their beers or goodies.

A great brewery experience in downtown Asheville for the whole family, including pets. What can you say about the beer for one of North Carolina’s flagship breweries and beers you can find in any store. Amazing! The food was excellent as well. Our whole family enjoyed the appetizers we ordered. Not many breweries will serve both homemade chips with a great kid friendly dip, while serving the same homemade chips with an amazing beef steak tartare with a quail egg on top. Scrumptious! Having a large indoor area, large front patio and another large back patio that is both covered and heated, you can just about enjoy the experience year round inside and out. Honestly, more places should have these designated areas for the overall indoor/outdoor experience year round. Thank you!

Good food and ambience. Enjoyed the cranberry chicken sandwich with kettle chips. Unfortunately the door to the outside seating stayed open during a cold night. It was cold and drafty because of this.

Short story: Good beer, delicious food and lovely atmosphere make this place an excellent addition to your day. Long story: I came here by myself on a busy summer afternoon. It was pretty hot out so I sat inside-- host seated me at a window bar facing the patio. I enjoyed a tasty Everyday IPA while people and dog watching. The beer was perfectly described on the menu-- light bodied, easy drinking. For my meal I ordered the homemade black bean burger with a side salad (the host mentioned that the salads were out of this world). My choices did not disappoint. Kale salad was lovely, packed with veggies and a yummy tahini ginger dressing. Complete with crunchy seasoned chickpeas. The burger was phenomenal, topped with shredded and creamy pimento cheese and crispy okra! The flavors all vibed incredibly well. I debated coming back the next day to have the exact same thing, that's how good it was. I was so sad when I took my last bite-- I didn't want it to end. Servers were kind and attentive. This establishment was a win-win-win.

This is still a top-tier brewery and a perfect way to pre-game for a night at the Orange Peel. If you're lucky, maybe even after too with a limited late night menu! It's a great atmosphere upstairs and downstairs. The "beer garden" is also a relaxed vibe. Feeling an IPA? You can't go wrong with a Pernicious or an Appalachia (on the lighter side). Their golden ale is also a good option. This one is still a stand out for me when I visit Asheville. Check it out!

Cool spot in the heart of Asheville. Started with the poutine, pretzel, and garlic parm wings. Only complaint was poutine could've used a lil more gravy but overall taste on everything was great. Got the kimchi fried chicken sandwich. I'm always skeptical of asian food in areas without asians and a non asian restaurant but was pleasantly surprised with the homemade kimchi. Paired great with the chicken sandwich and the focaccia was very fresh as well. Chips were homemade as well. Beer and drink selection were nice and paired well with food. Overall for a brewery solid bites and good vibes.

Loved our stop here. Great beer selection,large food portions,super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Since we were with a pup,we sat outside in their cozy outdoor patio. Inside looked really cool,and they even have their own merch/beer to go store on the spot. Definitely recommend when in the area!

Love the relaxed vibe here outside. We got a flight of sours and a few pints and just enjoyed hanging out outside listening to live music.

Always a great experience at Wicked Weed in Asheville. They have something for everyone when it comes to beer and their food menu is fantastic. We sat at the bar at this visit, service was very good and very attentive. Great merchandise available too their IPAs are fantastic, my favorite is Pernicious.

Todd C.

Yelp
While the beer and drink were amazing, as was the appetizer, the service was the worst I have received in a very long time. So bad, that despite the beer, Tito's, and loaded potato chips being delicious, we ended the evening at that and went to find another place to dine. The ambiance was cool though.

Madison T.

Yelp
Super awesome brewery and restaurant with two levels, indoor and outdoor seating, and lovely menu variety. We ordered the kimchi fried chicken sandwich (delish!), and wings (Asheville hot and habanero apricot) and both were great. For drinks we ordered the wicked weed apple cider, watermelon saison (my favorite), and pub flight. We will definitely be back!

Wicked Weed, a brewery in Asheville, NC that I can say that I have now tried! Asheville is a nest of many craft breweries and I have tried a lot of them... a few even became beloved. For Wicked Weed Steve and I had one of the versions of Fresh Pressed, a wheat beer with specific flavors of Grapefruit, Blood Orange and Agave. This as you think already is a very fruity, juicy beer with that along with citrus and Grapefruit specifically. The beer is very light bodied and easy to have more than one and so why wouldn't you?

We came to wicked weed based on some recommendations from friends. I'm not much of a beer person so I got the wicked weed cider. It was a little sweet and great intro cider. My husband got the lunatic blonde ale which was also really good, especially if you're not much of a beer drinker - this was nice and light. I got the full sized kale salad which was larger than I expected for one person. It definitely seemed like this salad was meant to be shared. Very fresh but wish there were more crispy chickpeas. The potato hash was crispy and freshly made! There were some carrots and other root veggies. I recommend requesting their house hot sauce to dip the potatoes in. My husband got the Asheville hot chicken sandwich with a side of collard greens and he said the chicken was perfectly fried. Really crispy on the outside and the "hot" chicken was quite spicy. The outdoors seating was great and pretty spacious. We brought our dog there and sat on the high top tables outside. The umbrellas are always up so it won't get too hot in the summer!

We came to grab a beer and something to eat. We got couple beers and the loaded chips. Outdoor area was pretty cool and very shaded which was nice. All in all a nice option to enjoy the weather. The loaded chips were pretty good. It was nice to have it loaded with toppings and the chips not get soggy!!

Beautiful venue with a nice looking menu and an excellent selection of beers. There is plenty of seating options which includes a great lower outdoor area. Kids welcome as well. The service was friendly and helpful which is nice when you're trying to nail down the right beer for the moment. Definitely worth a visit or two. Enjoy!

We love coming to Wicked Weed for awesome food and brews! We always try to arrive early to avoid long lines. We had THE best server and our pub appetizer lunch was a perfect pair to the Bump Cap pils and Infidel porter that we ordered. We always try to get here when in Asheville because they are consistent with good food and beer. P.S. interior and outside seating are all so nice. This time I had Henry VIII staring me down and I stuck my tongue out at him a few times to share my displeasure at his killing or getting rid of all his wives. At least he could not shout "off with her head at me!" Lol!

Yelp
Great spot - we went with a large group, and they easily accommodated us. Out of all of the dishes the group ordered, I highly recommend the Ashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (if you like spicy) or the Pub Burger. For appetizers, we split the Loaded Chips & the Soft Pretzel. Both were amazing. If you skip the chips as an app and are debating between fries or chips as a side, get the chips! The only thing I would change: You are only allowed to order the pre-set flights & are not able to customize/pick your own. I ended up getting the Hoppy flight, which was still great, but would have loved to throw one of their sours or seasonal beers into the flight. Overall, great experience!

Amazing brewery and food. Would recommend this place for visit while in Asheville. Must come checkout place. Beers were good and ambiance was welcoming.

We stopped in wicked weed for lunch and a beer before heading out of town, and I'm glad we decided to make the detour. Great food and beer. Both the front patio and back beer garden are the perfect place to grab food and drinks with family. Would love to come back during a soccer game to cheer along with other fans.

Fantastic burger and chips, nice ambiance with the outdoor seating, good service, and food came out fast. Even the bathroom was notable with what seemed like custom metalwork and wood stalls. Plus the good beer! Will come again.

Not off to a good start. Stood at door for quite a while waiting to be seated, no one in front of us. Additionally, plenty of seating. There is a sign at the please wait to be seated...so we did. However, once seated things went a bit better. Ordered two beers and an appetizer. Sadly our server just didn't return. Struggle to order another drink or even close out. Appreciate the serving the water at the table. Sadly disappointed with our visit.

Outside patio is beautiful but music so loud can't have pets there and no conversation- too much for afternoon

We'd never been before to Wicked Weed's main brew pub in downtown AVL (at the edge of South Slope). Why? It just always seemed busy and we thought of it more as a tourist hot spot than a spot also for locals. But we finally decided to give it a try -- on a holiday no less. It was busy, but it is a huge place (bigger than it looks from outside, and with seating inside and also outside in nice weather). So really no waiting for a table. For drinks my husband had the classic flight so he could try their baseline beers, which were all pretty good (he especially liked the Pernihaze). I had the Riverkeeper American wheat ale -- a really top-notch wheat beer. As an added bonus, for this beer they donate money for the preservation of the French Broad River. For food, I had the kimchi chicken sandwich. This is one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had in Asheville. The chicken itself was very tasty. The kimchi slaw had some nice background spiciness, and the miso sesame aioli added a nice additional layer of taste complexity without being too overdone. To make it even better, it was served on really good foccacia bread. The house chips were good as well. My husband's bison burger was a bit of a let down though (and the reason for the 4 stars versus 5). While the bison burger itself (done medium) tasted good, it needed something, and the blue cheese sauce did not do the trick. It's pretty common to serve a blue cheese sauce on filet mignon or other beef stakes, so the idea was understandable, but the execution wasn't. The sauce fell pretty flat. Making up for it at least somewhat were the sweet potato waffle fries. Although it would be great if they were served with some sort of dipping sauce (besides basic ketchup). Service was excellent even though they were very busy. Overall a strong option when looking for a brew pub downtown.

We walked in on a beautiful day, wanting to sit outside. The host didn't ask us if we'd like to sit inside or out, just sat us inside. The service was absolutely awful. I don't think our server checked on us more than 1 time the whole meal. He seemed like he would rather be anywhere else but serving tables (which may have been the case, but don't be rude to customers). The beer was also terrible. The spicy chicken sandwhich was dry and almost too spicy to eat without ranch, the Rueben had a thick mustard, it was just not what we were expecting. I wouldn't come back

First place we hit upon visiting Asheville. Started off with the Day Light and Strawberry Kiwi burst, both of which were solid. Then the Bavarian platter which was excellent. Great pretzel, spicy mustard and fantastic kielbasa and bratwurst (with sauerkraut). Meals were the burger (one of the best my son has ever had), the spicy chicken sandwich (SPICY), the Caesar salad (solid) and the Greek salad (very good). Ambiance is great. Good music and good service. Ordered the Pub Exclusive flight to finish things off. Good mix though poperinge was a bit hoppy for me. Best part. My 48-year old wife got carded and she was ecstatic.

We absolutely love wicked weed! We had been before, and upon our return to Asheville, We knew it had to be a stop before we left the city. We arrived on a Saturday around noonish and it was very busy. Fortunately, it is first come first serve, sitting at the bar and we were able to find two chairs. If you are looking to Dining for lunch at a regular table, you may have a wait on a busy weekend. Their location in the downtown Asheville area is quite large with both indoor and outdoor seating. The bartenders were splendid! Very friendly, and very knowledgeable. One of my favorite beers is the German chocolate cake stout that they do in the fall. I was so bummed when it wasn't on tap, but our bar tender promptly shared with me that it was available in their bottle shop for purchase. Probably the highlight to my trip was being able to locate these stouts that I have been dreaming about for years, living down in Florida, and not having them immediately accessible. My husband got the unity beat (english dark mild) that was a newer release for the World Cup. He really enjoyed it even though it looks like a semi-dark beer. It actually was quite light. I opted for the strawberry shortcake (fruit ale) which is brewed with strawberries, vanilla, and lactose. Very light and refreshing on a hot day, and perfect for somebody who is not a sour fan. I did take a moment to shop the bottle shop area that has a large selection of T-shirts, longsleeve shirts, sweatshirts, and several different brews and wines, as well as multiple other merchandise offerings. We definitely stopped by after our neighbor beer hopping as we are heading back to our car to pick up some of the desert beers that were available in the wine shop.

Really good brussel sprouts and boiled peanuts. Great beer selection here. Service was at the bar and pretty quick. They have a nice outdoor seating area that we sat at. Definitely want to return

A local micro brewery nestled into the stores and restaurants off Biltmore. It is a mix of funky, old, new, wood, and metal. Nice size bar. There are lots of tables and a patio. Service was helpful and attentive. We were seated quickly even when it was packed. We started with a pretzel served with mustard and beer cheese. Loved the mustard .. intense horseradish. We both had the steak and frites. The truffle fries were very tasty. I added Bleu cheese to my steak, and I am glad I did. It did not have much flavor beyond that.

My partner and I spent a day in Ashville to do some brewery hopping and take in the city for the first time. It was the perfect day to enjoy the patios with our pup and take in 4-5 different breweries. We had heard much about Wicked Weed so we were excited to make this our first stop. Since we were planning on taking in quite a few brews, we ordered some food, too! We had the wings with some different sauces to try and they were oh so good! We each had a beer flight so we could try as many beers as possible. I loved any and all of their hazy IPAs. We did try any dark beers because it was just too hot, but I can't wait to try more. Their patio is HUGE and has different type of table settings from picnic table, to very high high tops (our feet didn't touch the ground, but thankfully there was a bar to rest them on so we didn't feel too much like little kids). There were umbrellas to protect you from the sun. I didn't see too much of their inside but it looked spacious and they had a beer-to-go and merch store you can access from the patio. Oh, and the service was great! All around great experience.

In short, we had a good time here and would recommend! We ordered: - Beer flight Pub Exclusive: as someone that doesn't like beer flavor much, my favorite from this flight is Tangerine Dreamsicle. It's almost like a fruity cider. - Zero proof with vodka: the Zero proof drink comes with no alcohol. You can add any alcohol you like to it. Our server picked Vodka. I like the drink flavor but I didn't like the alcohol. I might have liked it with rum more. - Ashville hot chicken sandwich: paid an extra $2.5 to switch to sweet potato fries. It was delicious (maybe on the expensive end but at least it was good). We wished it had some extra stuff like Funkatorium does - Sweet potato fries: love it!! For $5, you get quite a big portion. I'd recommend getting this one if you like sweet potatoes. - Besides that, I did have a sample of "If you like pina colada", it was really good. Almost like you're drinking Pina Colada. Our server was excellent!! He was friendly, knowledgeable. We asked him for suggestions and he was happy explaining some menu items for us. Checked in on us here and there to make sure we're good! I like that music isn't loud so we can talk to each other without shouting. Tip: come here on Thursday night for live music and discounted new beer.

Great beer, great food... and open late! We got into Asheville around 9pm on a Thursday, and Wicked Weed seemed to be one of the only places still serving food. Lucky us! There are lots of options for seating including a back patio (which has live music at certain times), inside and bar area, and front patio which also has a fire pit. We sat out front at a cute 2-person table with a light. The beer menu has great variety. I got the peach habanero saison, and husband got the cherry sour. For our dinner, we started with the loaded chips, which reminded me a bit of potato skins. Yum! For entrees, we got the pineapple dream burger (special) and the shrimp po'boy. The main dishes did take a while to arrive, but service was consistently friendly. Food was solid, and we took home leftovers. I'd love to return to try more of their beers in a flight. Cheers!

I'm going to give this place a 4 only because the beer was not there for me. Food, atmosphere and staff were wonderful! Definitely wish I could've tried more stuff in the menu because it all sounded so amazing. My husband and I love beer and he's definitely much easier to please than I am, but neither of us liked any of the beer in our flights. So that was definitely a bummer. Still a cool place to go and hangout with yummy food and awesome vibes.

Kim N.

Yelp
Really liked this place. Cool decoration and vibes accompanied with a wide range of great food and drinks. They have two seating areas: indoor and outdoor. Our server was really great at doing his job; He was enthusiastic to help us make our decisions on what kinds of drinks to try and all of other details. He was attentive and did not forget to stop by to check on us ensuring we were good and got everything we needed. The star of the show today was the sweet potato fries which checked all the boxes - crispy & lightly salty outside, soft & sweet inside, especially not greasy at all. Not to mention that the price is quite reasonable. You can order the big portion for only $5. For drinks, after trying Beer flight Pub Exclusive, I really like Tangerine Dreamsicle even though beer is not my thing. Zero proof with vodka was my personal order but recommended by the server. It was pretty good but I guess I might've liked it more with rum than vodka and that's because I don't like strong alcohol taste. Overall, this was a satisfying experience while vacationing in Ashevile with my dear family :)

I when here twice on my trip and really enjoyed myself. Slightly bummed to hear Anheuser-Busch purchased them but they did it for good reasons, they have good beer! I order the pub exclusive beer flight and I liked all of the beers. After that I tried the " if you like piña coladas" beer and it was amazing!! Tasted just like a piña colada. 5/5 for the beer. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries. The chicken sandwich was pretty good. I would say 4/5. The sweet potato fries were soooo good though! I would come back for just those! 5/5 The service was really good. They would check on you often and let you try samples to see what beer you want to order next. 5/5 for service. The ambiance is really nice. They have a ton of seating. They have a nice outdoor seating with a fire pit. Lots of indoor seating. They also have downstairs seating with another out door patio. They also have live music downstairs on select nights. You can also do a free tour to learn about the brewing process. I didn't do the tour yet but hope to before I leave. Overall a great brewery and I'll come back for sure. You

During our recent visit to Asheville, my wife and I explored the brewery scene and stumbled upon this gem. The place had a great vibe, and the service was on point. Excited to return and sample more of their beers.

Allison M.

this place has kind of been a staple in Asheville for a little while. I remember when it first opened and being so excited about it. And then there was all the controversy when it was bought out. Definitely still a decent place to go, but better in the early days. Plus recently it has been so busy that It's not really enjoyable. Went here yesterday on Saturday and there was too long of a wait around 3 PM for a table upstairs. We moseyed downstairs because they have a menu there as well. I opted for the kale salad which was an absolute delight, but a little pricey at $14. My friend got the Ruben, which looks great, and had a ton of chips. We also each got a glass of Prosecco. Before you judge, that's what we'd been drinking and we had to keep the vibes going. I will say it was a tiny flute for $10 but it was decently good Prosecco so I cannot complain. Plus these days I go for quality over quantity, so I was happy. The line wasn't too bad when we arrived. The wait wasnt awful for the food. But by the time we sipped our Prosecco (boujee) and got our food, the line had about 20 people in it. No thanks. We just crossed our fingers that they tip 20% for open tabs and left. Good reminder that I like downtown selectively every once in a while but on weekends and too often it's not really my jam

Great atmosphere. Wish they had a wider variety of beers on tap. If you like Hazy IPA's - here you go!!

First visit to Wicked Weed - what a terrific brewery experience. Great vibe - options for indoor and outdoor seating. We chose the patio and sat under the shaded tent. Colorful murals add to the experience. The service was super friendly. You can walk up to the bar, but they'll also come out to check on you, answer questions, etc. But we're hear for the beer, right? And it delivered. The If You Like Piña Colada was amazing! My son and I were sharing an 8 ounce pour and it was the one we kept coming back to. Tons of selection - lots of IPAs and one barrel aged. If we lived locally we'd come often!

Charles V.

Yelp
This place was packed! And it had a great vibe! We were fortunate to not wait long for a table. After being seated, I truly enjoyed reviewing the beer list to make my selections (plural). I sampled a few different options, but settled on a light lager called Daylight. I know ... boring. But it was tasty! On to the food. We decided to make a buffet of appetizers. We proceeded to order the Soft Pretzel, Fish N' Chips, and the Bavarian Platter. Winner! This combination was just right to both give us variety of options and fill our bellies. Definitely worth another visit.

Great spot for beer and a good meal. We came seeking beer and we were not disappointed. The server was a huge help in describing the beers on tap and helping us make our decision. I enjoyed the Kahata Masala especially. It has mango flavors and Indian spices, a very unique sour beer. Dinner of Asheville hot chicken sandwich was good, but not that hot. The pretzel and beer cheese was my favorite of the meal. So good! The place was a fun time.

Well known brewery does not disappoint. This was the first time I visited the Funkatorium and the selection of the different beers was impressive. The beers were all great - nice selection of sours for those interested in this style.

I LOVED the atmosphere of Wicked Weed Brewing. It's very chill and relaxed with beautiful artwork and greenery all around. The pickled plate was one of my favorite things I tried that day. It's so different and I've never seen it offered anywhere. The celery was pickled with ginger I am almost certain and it was delicious. The whole plate pictured was fantastic. It doesn't seem like the most exciting food, but I've never seen nuts, fruits, and veggies treated with such care. It is a must order!! Sparkling lemonade was okay, it's from a place made in Asheville. They have a beautiful outdoor area that is dog friendly too. Definitely recommend!

Food was excellent, fresh and just enough different to not be boring! Our waiter knew his beers and was able to recommend for all 3 of us with differing tastes. We sat on the patio and really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Venturing beyond the TN limits for a weekend in NC for some skiing (didn't go well as conditions were bad) but we did get to tray a few new eats along the way....so buckle up and hold on - here's the Wicked Weed review! Ambiance: Typical brewery vibe in a convenient downtown location (parking could be an issue so plan ahead - we got lucky)....there was an upstairs and a downstairs both available to eat but downstairs was more of a pub style bar atmosphere with some covered outside seating. Decor was brewery (as you'd expect) with large displays and easy to read beer menu and seasonals listed. Service: Meh with an upside - hostesses were more concerned chatting with each other than greeting guests (on a Friday evening) which didn't bode well for us as we were told 30min wait (which was fine) but said you can head down and eat downstairs as more room was open - which turned out to be way off - no seats no spaces anywhere so we had to go back up and then get on the list - kind of wasted time but hey we were already here! The upside was our Service at our table which was great - she was prompt l, professional, and energetic - just what you'd expect from a brew staff. Food: Meh - was hoping for something seriously tasty as we ordered the bison burgers - but honestly tasted more like a standard Kroger 80/20 meat than the typical more sweet and oily bison meat were used to so not sure we either got what we paid for or if the batch was just not right....compliments were standard / sweet potato waffle fries and standard fries were good . Beer: Honestly this is where I was most disappointed as I love IPAs and went with the $12 IPA flight. I'd had the pernicious before but the rest were new - all had absolutely zero flavor - they weren't like drinking light beer but could not understand why the hop didn't hit and the citrus tones weren't present in my flight. Oh well win some lose some. Price: Average for pub fare with standard and avg for beers. Nothing out of whack here so expect for 3 with beverages and bison about $100 with tip.... Summary: Solid 3 - would try funkatorium or other breweries over this for sure...might give it another shot as 1x isn't enough to form a long term opinion. Keep Munching!

Steak and fish and chips were excellent, $4 beers were great deal. We weren't the only family with little kids at dinner.

The food was great at the brewery, the inside is very spacious, but not anything special. I had the Dunkel and it was delicious with my fish and chips. My husband had the Hefeweizen which was ok. He did have the special firewalker wings, which he said had great flavor, but order the half if you are not super hungry, the full is a lot of wings for one person.

We loved this stop. We went for dinner and really enjoyed everything we ate. Our server was great, the drinks felt like a steal. Great space for groups. We loved that they had options beyond beer, including one of my favorite wines Unshackled by the Prisoner. Both salads were stellar. I'd eat the tahini chickpea salad daily if I could. So much flavor, such fresh ingredients. We loved the Caesar too, very well done. We also got the burgers and chicken sandwich. Of note, Asheville hot is hot hot but if that's your thing it's so good. Definitely recommend for anyone in Asheville.

Such a fun brewery!! Located right in the heart of downtown and all the excitement! We had a long wait for a table but no problem just head on downstairs to the garden patio and have some beers while you wait. Such a fun atmosphere! You will have to show ID regardless of your age. It is a state law so just be prepared and hopefully your bartender will flatter you. We got our table and were seated outside. I normally don't care to eat outside unless I am on the water but this garden patio was great!!!! The food was delicious and the beer was excellent! I did the IPA flight and liked them all. I had the Carolina Bison Burger it was delicious! My husband and I shared the Greek Salad. He added chicken to it and made his half his meal. Friends got the Bavarian Platter. Everything was delicious! I definitely recommend this brewery!
