Amazing place, amazing beers. Cellarist has been on our list to visit every time we come to Asheville and we now regret missing out the last two years. The beer list is strong, with two excellent sours, so excellent that we bought some to take back to Florida with us. Definitively make this a site to visit!

The best beer, vibes and food truck. They’ve got great employees and ownership that have gone above and beyond to support the community after the hurricane. Proud to be a customer

This place has the best vibes. I love the plants, the bartenders are wonderful, and the outside area is so nice. Love the different food trucks and the Thai food truck that is on site. With that being said, this is literally the most disappointing beer, Gose, that I’ve had in my life. If I had a blind taste test I’m not sure that I could differentiate between this and any standard light beer. I’m detecting ZERO key lime. I wish there was beer here that I could enjoy because I want to come hang out here! So disappointing. ?

Beware. Don’t accidentally park in the empty space behind their building unless you’re dining here. We didn’t see a sign so we parked here to go right across from them. We were met with a rude lady yelling at us that we could not park there. We asked if she knew where else we could park for suggestions since we are from out of town. She pointed “over there and there and all around just not here”. Of course all of the things she was waving her arms around were not open or else we would’ve parked there. Regardless, she needs training on customer service.
Updated in response to business response: Your singular sign (which we saw after being confronted) saying your parking only was completed covered in grown out moss. Your worker had every opportunity to talk to us in a respectful, polite, friendly way and we would’ve been happy to do whatever she was asking. I didn’t have a group of random hooligans like your response made it out to be- but had multiple young children as it was a FAMILY. We had one car parked incorrectly as there was a massive ditch that anyone would’ve got stuck in. We made sure to leave space for everyone else parked already. My sister also parked beside us and SO close that they had to get out of the car on the opposite side, again, to make sure people had room to go around. There is absolutely no way more than 2 cars could’ve parked there so your statement for that is wild. I’m sure your worker is a great worker, but she absolutely did not “politely” or “patiently” tell us anything. I was never given the chance to try out your establishment before being confronted in the way we were. You may try and twist whatever you’d like but I was present and I would never recommend this place based on my now, two, interactions. The level of unprofessionalism and lack of accountability in your response speaks for itself, again, zero customer service and no suggestions for making amends.

Amazing beer with a very comfy atmosphere. Great music selection and a wonderful food truck. My first visit did not disappoint.

Nice music, good drinks. There is a food truck with delicious food and I don't have a per but it is pet friendly ?

Great beers and a great space. They've got a wonderful patio with lots of shade. We also loved all of the plants everywhere.

Cellarest is a must to check out if you find yourself wanting to get away from downtown and into west Asheville. My wife and I had been a handful of times before we ultimately decided it would be the perfect wedding venue for us! Amazing beers, wines, and local selection of everything in between! We cannot say more positives things about the space and offerings here. Harrison and his team are extremely friendly and great to work with!

This brewery has a really interesting vibe. I don’t know if it’s the day or time of day we came, but they had DJs going. It was kinda fun. The beers themselves were solid; better than I anticipated. They had some interesting style and flavor profiles which always gets my engines revved. The food truck was just ok. I liked it but I don’t know that I would demand we go back next time I’m in town

Super Chill Place and @cassia location for food truck... ?The beer is great.
Saisons of the celestials, porters fit for a prince, and ales worthy of alliteration as well

Cellarest has an excellent selection of german style beers, many of which come in a delightful half liter mug. The staff is both knowledgeable and friendly. The space is warm and welcoming and full of lovely plants! and there is pup friendly outdoor seating as well.

I love a good dark beer and this place had one that was dark and really smooth, lacking that awful bitterness that some dark beers get. It’s so cozy inside! I love being there. Lots of plants. It almost has a cafe vibe! I would bring my dad there as well as a friend or a date, lol! The staff indeed is exceptional. They know their beers and are so incredibly warm and welcoming. These folks have a great thing going.

Excellent cold IPA. Good seltzer!

Great lagers. It’s nice to find a draft list that isn’t loaded with hazy IPAs. Their beers remind me a lot of Halfway Crooks in Atlanta, making seemingly boring styles that taste great. The service was also exceptional.
