    What a cool brewery! Definitely recommend checking this brewery out if you're visiting the area. Love that you can actually get a beer for $6! The foods also really great as well.

    This brewery is really beautiful, and we were excited to check it out. We ordered the fish and chips, boiled peanuts, and a beer flight. The fish and chips were honestly the highlight of the meal--crispy, fresh, and really good. The boiled peanuts were tasty too. Unfortunately, everything else was kind of disappointing. The A/C barely seemed to be working, so it was pretty warm inside. Our server was friendly and helpful, but our water wasn't cold, and neither were the beers. At a brewery, that's kind of the whole experience, so it was a letdown. Overall, I'd give it a 5/10. The food was good, but for the price, I expected a much better experience. Cold beer in a comfortable brewery seems like the bare minimum.

    Seasonal flight.

    Asheville does not lack for breweries, and this one did not disappoint. Location is great and had a very nice patio. We snagged the last table outside on a gorgeous Asheville afternoon. It was 2:00 on a Friday, and the place was busy, but the staff had it under control. I chose a flight, which included a Habanero Peach which was surprisingly balanced. All three of us ordered the Chicken Gyro burger with the house made chips and dip. It was delicious and flavorful. The dip was a homemade sour cream and onion and I could have eaten a vat of it. All in all, a great lunch experience.

    Beer is elite. Food is not. Shame on us for expecting more from the food. Cold nachos, kung pao chicken wings were decent (pretty spicy, hotter than average buffalo). Boiled peanuts were $6 and ok if you like boiled peanuts. Server was nice and overloaded but did an adequate job. Ambiance was a solid 7/10 There are much better spots to grab dinner before a show at the Orange Peel. But the beer is elite. Grab a pint and don't expect much from the kitchen.

    Came here for a brewery tour with my friends and it was a nice experience! Our host Will was very informative and had a fun personality that kept us engaged. We enjoyed trying the 3 beers at the end! We stopped in the shop and bought a shirt with the discount given from the tour and also picked up a brewed bottle. If we had more time I would have stayed for the bar! Looked pretty busy on the weekend so it must be a popular spot. Highly recommend based on our experience!

    After a long day of hiking, me and my husband decided to stop at the closest brewery to our hotel, bringing pups along with us. We were seated immediately, though it took about 5-7 minutes for our server to arrive, and he apologized for the delay. We came primarily for drinks and appetizers, and the beer flight we tried was really good and refreshing. As for the food, I wasn't a fan of the wings my husband had ordered them on the side, but I would have preferred them fully coated in sauce. On the other hand, the loaded chips were excellent, made with homemade potato chips that were perfectly seasoned. The overall vibe of the place was fantastic, very lively and dog-friendly, making it a fun spot to relax after a long hike.

    Large location. Plenty of space for all sizes. Good vibes. Indoor and outdoor options. Many types of groups gathered here. Lots of fun. Service was great for the amount of people. Happy drinking!

    Stein Sunday!! Who knew? I ordered the Wicked Weed Cider. Our visit was between lunch and dinner so we only stopped in for a beer and what an amply sized beer it was! Great value for the price. And a darned good cider as well!

    Went to the main Wicked Weed location for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised by the inside and by the beer quality and selection. Not sure what I expected as I was not familiar with Wicked Weed as it is my first time to Asheville, but the name made me think there would be a bunch of strange beers and CBD infused or other. But instead, a very stylish brewery with all your mainstream varieties plus a few not some normal ones, just a good variety. Bartender was very pleasant and gave us some other places to try in Asheville as well. Happened to go on Stein Sunday and all of their beers with leas than 8% abv were $10/liter. Cannot beat that! Will be back!!

    We were looking for a brewery option as we were just passing through Asheville. We were looking for more options other than just IPAs and this was the spot. It was a nice day and we sat outside and it wasn't too loud. We went at the beginning of May and there were no bugs outside sometimes restaurants have a fly problem just with it being outside but this place does not at least not in May. So I would suggest enjoying the outdoor seating if possible. Our server Erin was fantastic. They were able to make great recommendations and were super kind all night. I got a fruity flight and I enjoyed the cherry seltzer. Most of the other ones were a lighter take on the fruity side. We started with the pretzel and beer cheese because they were out of focaccia, but I'm glad we made this choice. The pretzel was fresh and warm and apparently from a local Baker. The beer cheese was really good and warm, which just made it a 10 out. I got the hummus platter and I loved the variety of vegetables with it and the hummus was really good. It's definitely a smoother hummus but still very good. Overall, I would come back.

    Keller Pils (16oz for $6)
    Bren H.

    Food was great and delicious! Our server, Garrett (I believe) was awesome and attentive. Ordered the Keller Pils and it is worth every bang for your buck! Large glass size for only $6! They had a steak special for $25 including a 10oz steak strip, truffle fries, and a small salad. It was such a great choice and easy to split with someone. This place was a vibe and the downstairs beer garden area is so cute! Will be back!

    On our way home from Dollywood we decided to stop in for a cold beer. We've always enjoyed their beers and our son really wanted to see the brewery. To me, it's a must to stop here when coming to this area. Friendly staff, and absolutely beautiful surroundings and murals. The beers are DELICIOUS. I had some kind of cheesecake Porter and loved it!

    Mike O.

    We've never been here although having been to Asheville many times. So many breweries, so little time The inside and outside are both cute with plenty of seating. I ordered the custom flight (pick your own) at $15 when we visited. I got a peach habanero saison, cider, hef and a dark espresso cheesecake stout. All were wonderful and service was great. An excellent stop for local beer

    Great beer selections and service.

Almost every beer on the menu is a split batch fermented with two different yeast strains to showcase the resulting differences. It's a great concept, even if you're not into brewing. In terms of the food, it seems like the really leaned into providing something good, well-balanced, and sometimes takes advantage of the yeast and beer being cultivated on site. I had a house salad and some dilly beans for lunch. The house salad was fresh and extremely well balanced. I'm glad they had something vegetable centric available. The dilly beans were good, but quite a bit for a single human. They're probably the type of thing you would want to split among friends. I actually showed up for an event in the evening where they served pizza using dough fermented with one of their yeast strains. That was truly excellent.

They sell them as "a pound" which was good because these were very small wings. Small, but tasty in a sweet/spicy sauce and I ate nearly all of them while slowly sipping that very crushable beer.

But I got a pre selected flight and she had me take a picture of the flight list so I knew which beer was which. Idk a lot of other breweries would have wrote it down but a picture works too. We sat outside on their covered patio and watched the river. It started to get really nice out so after that we sat at their turf area and chilled until we were done. We spent a good hour here and just really liked the vibe outside . People had their dogs so we were so watching and in generally very friendly . I took a picture beneath the sign with the bicycles. You can see that on a weekend this place would get crazy busy so it was nice for us to just relax and take in the atmosphere without it getting so crowded. Anyone who is in Asheville should check this place out.
