“Pretty good selection of beers, great band and lots of indoor seating. Easy parking. Food via food truck outside and some finger food inside, but no restaurant. It is very much a beer lover's brewery, but offers wine, sodas and hot tea also.“
“Dry Falls Brewing has an amazing vibe with an excellent variety of tasty beers. Jeff the owner sets the bar for fantastic customer service and knowledge of craft beer. Not only did he and his team do a great job of taking care of us, he also hooked us up with dinner reservations for 8 at a great restaurant, the Flat Rock Wood Room, on a Saturday night.“
“My husband and I stopped here, our last full day before we head back home to michigan, and I have to say this place was amazing! The atmosphere was 10/10, the service was 10/10 and the beer as well, 10/10. I asked the girl at the counter who was on the shorter side with brown hair (I didn't catch her name but she was awesome) what beer I should try because I was having a hard time deciding and then she suggested a few to sample so I did. I really liked them all! I also bought a four pack and she said she'd leave it in the fridge for when I'm ready to leave and when I went up there to grab it I hadn't even said anything yet and she was grabbing the pack and putting it in a bag for me. I wish I lived closer!!“
“This is a great gem in the 7th Street District! They have a really good variety of beers (not all IPAs like a lot of breweries), including some great dark ones (try the schwarzbier or the porter). The owners are very nice and knowledgeable about their craft and Hendersonville. Good outdoor space and some TVs inside in case you have to catch a game. Might be my new favorite brewery in town!“
“Awesome craft beer estate, this place is a beautiful structure on beautiful grounds. We took the 45 minute beer tour. That's not long enough. Take a longer tour of you have the time. There's so much that goes into making beer. I never knew! You get try try samples after the tour. They also have a gift shop, restaurant and live music events. Fun and informative place to visit!“
“Tickle my peach and call me Payton! Mills river bold rock is the best place for a brunch or a late night dinner and hangout. They have many great flavors of cider as well as amazing food from their food truck. The inside and outside atmosphere is great with friendly staff and music! Absolutely recommend.“
“This place is awesome! Did the guided tour and was mesmerized. Shared some appetizers for lunch (wings were the best I’ve had anywhere), had a few beers and hung out at the fire pit a while afterwards. Really cool experience! Planning to go back many times.“
“We visited this brewery during our week long trip to Pisgah with our two German shorthair pointers. Our hike was rained out, though we attempted it anyway. After aborting the hike due to weather, we decided to look for a place to get a mid-day beer. We looked at a couple breweries, even drove to Sierra Nevada Brewery. SN was disappointing since their outdoor area was not covered nor open for service apparently. We then went to Burning Blush to check it out. This was also one of few places open at noon (and it was a weekday). Lucky for us, they allow pups inside, which was a plus given the weather. The place was quiet but as I said, was a weekday with terrible weather. The beers were great, the food truck was amazing, and the staff were very kind. They gave our pups a few biscuits (which they loved). My dogs are my kids, so I'm happy to have found this place! Def recommend if traveling with furry friends! We would 100% go back when we are in the area again. THANK YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS TO OUR POINTERS!“
“Stopped in to test out the local beers and have a bite to eat. The selection of beers is extensive. The bar and patio are simple, comfy and blend into the surrounding mountain region effortlessly. You feel at home and welcome the moment you step onto the property.There’s a selection of books and board games to invite gatherings and remind you to relax. A quaint and delicious stop not too far from the Blue Ridge parkway.I had the Brussels sprouts with my burger and beer and they were the best deliciousness I have eaten in a long time. My mind, my body and my heart were very happy.Highly recommend this stop in Fletcher. It is just what the Blue Ghost Firefly wants you to experience in these rolling hills parts of North Carolina.Did you know that the Blue Ghost Firefly is only found in these regions? How can you not visit this brewery and celebrate the Firefly’s rare existence with a hearty meal and cold, rich, tasty beer?“
“Great little bar in downtown Saluda to grab a drink. They had a good selection of local craft beer on tap, as well as a fridge full of cans and bottles. The bartender was on the ball and very sweet. She knew all the locals by name and was able to recommend beers to the new people that came in based on their taste. Was obvious that she knew the menu very well. I was impressed, a very friendly spot. I can see why so many locals like coming here. You can sit at the bar or they have a good size area outside with seating.“

“Great beer selections with a limited number of craft cocktails. Good food - more upscale bar food. Sprawling outdoor area if you want to spread out or bring your dog. Always friendly service. If you are in Mills River definitely stop by for a beer and the chicken sandwich.“
“My visit to Sierra Nevada in Asheville was an absolute delight from start to finish. The 45-minute tour we embarked on was nothing short of captivating, allowing us to explore the brewery's inner workings and granting us access to behind-the-scenes areas.Upon arrival, the first thing that struck us was the sheer beauty of the building and its surroundings. The architecture was stunning, and the grounds were immaculately kept, creating a picturesque setting for our visit.The customer service was exceptional, with the staff displaying a genuine warmth and enthusiasm that added to the already positive vibes of the place. It was evident that they were passionate about what they do, and their enthusiasm was infectious.We were pleased to find that there was ample parking available, and even better, it was free—a rare find these days.The selection of beers was impressive, with a wide variety to choose from.Even without taking the tour, one could wander through the corridors, soaking in the history and accessing several rooms of the factory. However, the paid tour took our experience to another level, providing us with a comprehensive understanding of the brewery's history and operations.At the conclusion of the tour, we were treated to a tasting of four beers, which was both informative and enjoyable. It was fascinating to learn about the unique qualities of each beer and the thought process behind their creation.For beer connoisseurs, Sierra Nevada is a must-visit. The facility and property are stunning, both in terms of their beauty and design. Every aspect of the experience, from the tour to the tasting, was expertly crafted to provide visitors with an unforgettable experience.In conclusion, our trip to Sierra Nevada was nothing short of fantastic. The combination of excellent customer service, beautiful surroundings, and top-notch beer made for a truly memorable visit. We can't wait to return!“
“We had a terrific lunch and brew at the restaurant Friday (March 1st) and I gotta say that this is a really awesome place to eat. I had the most fantastic Caesar Salad w/chicken and a IPA beer. This is an outstanding place with great vibe, great food, and great people. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Mills River Brewing Co. and give it my highest recommendation of 5/5. This place will not disappoint !!!“
“Base Camp has become our goto brew. It’s close to home and easy to get to on 64. The people are friendly and make you feel welcome. The outdoor seating is great with picnic tables and large lawn chairs around a pit fire. The food truck has been great especially now with their selection of hot wings.“
