Sierra Nevada Beer Tours Brewery • $$
100 Sierra Nevada Way, Fletcher - 8.15 miles

“The Sierra Nevada brewery is awesome! First off the facility is absolutely fantastic. It’s large but the building and the entire campus are immaculately clean & well kept. It still looks brand new. The tour itself was excellent providing great historical content & insight into their state of the art current operations. Following up the tour with a visit to the Taproom restaurant is a must. The food is phenomenal & the service is top notch. Finally, it was so enjoyable to finish the day with a beer on the patio. I give the Sierra Nevada brewery tour & Taproom my highest recommendation. Can’t wait to take other friends for a visit.“

“10/10 recommend! Last weekend to decided to get out of the house with our 2yr old. We loved this place before having our son because of the outdoor space. The owner was so kind and let my son “help” take down some outdoor decorations. Then paid him for his hard work with a juice box. Made his night! Thank you!“

Dry Falls Brewing Co. Brewery • $
425 Kanuga Rd, Hendersonville - 7.43 miles

“We arrived just before 4pm but had called to say we may have been a little late for checkin. Trent one of the employees let my wife know that it gets crowded by 6pm. We were able to get there and setup in plenty of time and the brewery was jam packed with friendly people and music. Trent was highly accommodating on arrival and totally knowledgeable about all of the beers. We met Evan later on and he was also very welcoming. We found out later on that Evan and his Dad opened the place and congrats to them.

All in all one of the best and friendliest Harvest Hosts that we have stayed at.

Make it a stop we will definitely be back when we are passing thru again.“

Oskar Blues Brewery Taproom Brewery • $
342 Mountain Industrial Dr, Brevard - 7.74 miles

“I was prepared to write a '5', but in truth there were a number of small things that kept me from going there. First, it's a cool space off the beaten track. The beer is good, the mural is superb. The house food truck was passable. I was expecting a little higher standard on the sandwiches, but I may be a bit picky.
And the fryer was down. No fault there - they've got a new one on the way.
My biggest critique was the number of aggressive dogs there. I take my dog to a fair number of taprooms around the country, and honestly - many of these (6+) would've been 86'd by staff at most taprooms. My dog loves to interact, and would not have understood the aggressiveness.“

Southern Appalachian Brewery Brewery • $

“Great place, lots of great beer and great venue for music/bands rain or shine. They have a big stage outside and a smaller one inside. Dog friendly too. Try the Black Bear on tap, if you like darker beer that one is great. Saw the Trophy Husbands band play there and they were awesome! Don't miss! Pizza food truck that night was too pricy but still good.“

Brevard Brewing Company Brewery • $
63 E Main St, Brevard - 9.76 miles

“Brevard Brewing Company is a standout gem right on Main Street, perfectly capturing the laid-back, welcoming vibe of downtown Brevard. Whether you are wrapping up a long day of hiking in the nearby forests or just looking for a relaxed spot to unwind, this brewery delivers on all fronts.
​One of its biggest logistical perks is the hassle-free experience; you do not have to stress about downtown parking because there is ample free parking just around the corner. Step inside and you will find an exceptionally clean, well-maintained space that effortlessly accommodates crowds. The layout features plenty of comfortable bar space for solo visitors or couples, alongside numerous tables perfect for larger groups. For sports fans, the three perfectly positioned TVs keep you caught up on the latest games without overwhelming the brewery’s social atmosphere.
​Of course, the real highlight is the drink menu. They specialize in outstanding, German-inspired beers that are exceptionally well-crafted, crisp, and refreshing. Even better, they offer great, wallet-friendly prices that make ordering a second pint an easy decision. It is a fantastic, unpretentious local staple where great value meets quality brewing.“

“Awesome, love the constantly changing ciders based on time of year. Never a long wait either with plenty of seating.
My only complaint is some of the bar staff can have zero personality or be outright rude which is very off putting. Other than the interactions with them, 5 stars.“
