24 Best Craft Breweries near Fletcher

“The Beer Geek tour was very informative and a great value. If you have 3 hours and want to get a behind the scene experience of the beer making process every step of the way from water and grains and ending with finished product in packaging, this is the tour for you. The tour guide Mary did a great job explaining the process and answering questions. Additionally, all the employees we encoutered along the way were very friendly and showed great pride in their company and the immaculate Mills River facility!“

“Always a great stop. The food is awesome plus the beer. We have been here and never disappointed“

“Lovely spot for all kinds of people. There’s things for families and kids but also areas to spread out for couples wanting their own space. The beers are tasty & very unique and the staff is extremely friendly. One of our favorite breweries in Asheville!“

“Great place. great owner . Rotating food trucks . Very dog friendly!!!“

“Always a good time at Sideways!“

“Veteran owned and operated! The owner and I have actually been to some of the same places in Germany!! Everyone is very friendly!“

“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.“

“We stopped by 12 Bones with our two frenchies after hiking outside of Hendersonville on our way to our Airbnb in Fletcher. We loved that they were so dog friendly in the taproom, even providing us with a bowl of water for them. The beer selection was great, & the food was awesome too! My husband had the Hogzilla with baked beans & I had the BLT with corn pudding. Everything was absolutely delicious! One of our primary goals on vacation is always to eat unique foods, & these certainly helped us fulfill that. Everyone was so sweet to our dogs & service was great. Thanks for helping make my husband's birthday weekend great!“

“Great time! Highly recommend!“

“New to us and really enjoyed the selection of adult brews.“

“Really great brewery and vibe. Some of the best beers around, especially the sours and witbeer.“

“Over the last 2 days I’ve tried all their beers except the IPAs. I’m just not a fan of IPAs.
All their beers were great, especially nice were the Mud Creek Milk Stout and the Brown Ale. The cherry Vanilla Milk Stout was good but a little too sweet for me.
First time I ever tried a sour or fruity beer and they, Rhubarb Strawberry Blonde and the Milk Shake Blueberry Mango sour, were both very good and not too sweet.
Friendly bartender and locals, good conversation. The second night was trivia, I didn’t do very well but it was fun.
I think the best thing about the place, though, is the owner lets RVs stay overnight. Because of this I was able to experience a couple of the local restaurants, the ones I enjoyed I left reviews on their sites.
Evan is really doing a community service letting RVs stay so they can experience more in Hendersonville than just one night at his brewery.“

“I love coming here with friends. The atmosphere is incredible and the live music is always good. Drinks are affordable and they have food which is amazing. I definitely recommend checking this place out. This business really stepped up during Helene and it still continues to do so.“

“Fantastic food and drinks every time!“

“Had lunch with you yesterday. very impressed great service delicious food. Glad I found you will return. 👏👏“

“Event Space was perfect location to host Welcome Party (night before wedding). The air conditioned room was perfect size with the seating, the AV/speakers, the games, and photo booth. Having bathrooms on two levels was helpful, too. Robin and her crew were so helpful in the planning process. It was a great party!“

“A lovely stop upon entering Asheville. My friend and I enjoyed the ambience and food. They were very accommodating on the drink side....really wanted a hot drink due to how cold it was, but the drink i wanted wasnt ready yet so I got a hot oatmilk instead! Haha Why it isn't 5* is because the kitchen took a really long time to get my friend's lunch out....like 30mins for a fairly simple breakfast order. We would visit again.“

“First time here and was not at all disappointed! Great food and a variety of food to choose from. Win win…. Beers were cold and a good selection to choose from. Great relaxing atmosphere. Will definitely be back and spend more time enjoying the grounds….“

“I went to a bar at the Grand Bohemian and had an IPA and (my friends call me a IPA snob) best IPA in a longtime googled the location 5 minutes away went. Great Vibe live music Jerry’s Dead Band. Felt like a local not a tourist. ❤️“

“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.“

“The best smash burger I’ve had the pleasure of eating , props to the chefs .. thanks again for the great food“

“friendly bartender. nice suggestions on what else/where else we should try.“
