Located in downtown Asheville,this large brewery/restaurant offers good food and beers. They also have a nice outdoor beer garden and bottle shop. We stopped in for a late lunch and were seated immediately. I tried their Octoberfest Festbeer Lager which was very good. They have a many different beer styles and flavor profiles to choose from. I also tried their dozen wing combo with Apricot Habanero sauce and Hibachi Ginger. I loved the Apricot Habanero sauce! The ginger sauce was unique so I had to try it. I wasn't a fan but my wife loved it. I would definitely go back to try a few more of their beers as well as menu items.

Of course we had to stop by Wicked Weed in Asheville! We originally walked in upstairs, but then we directed around back for just drinks. This was an open concept indoor/outdoor seating. The beertender was slammed, yet kept a smile on her face. I tried the red ale, as a usual IPE girl, this was adventurous and fun for me! I really liked it! They have fill it yourself water stations, along with some pretzels and mustard. The pretzels were such a nice touch!

Visiting for the weekend and had to check out one of the best breweries in Asheville! I love that they do free tours and they have a wide selection of sours. Tim our tour guide was the perfect balance of educational, captivating, and funny. We learned a great deal on our 45 minute tour. Very impressed with the growth of Wicked Weed along with their sours, lagers, and IPAs. I We enjoyed our samples plus the beautiful tasting glass! We also bought the Oktoberfest lager which went down smooth. Love the expansiveness of the brewery itself and art deco of the Biltmore Ave location!

Sat in the patio on this beautiful July day and man we loved our time here at Wicked Weed, Interesting and delicious drinks! Nice establishment. Clean, spacious, plenty of seating. Gets really busy on the weekend! My friends and I tried almost all of their burgers and we loved what we had. Oh and their fries/chips were good as well. Stop by here as your first stop in Asheville and you won't be disappointed!

Mediterranean Bowl. (salad)
Mike B.

Excellent destination for a good beer paired with some food. The beer menu is actually fairly interesting. Lot's of eclectic spice and vegetable beers, but the pairings are generally interesting and well done. They also have a few more traditional beer styles, if that's what you're in the mood for. The space is also very nicely done. Plenty of room at the bar. A somewhat dark and muted color tone that created the feel of a slightly rustic and understated space. I liked it. In terms of food, I ordered a mediterranean bowl and was pretty happy with it. Reasonably well presented. Some evidence of investing effort in creating an individualized concept. The ingredients were also very fresh. The toppings also fell within a reasonable balance. It wasn't overwhelming. It wasn't the best salad of this type that I've had, but it made for something crisp and fresh to pair with a pint. All that having been said, my suggestion would be to go for the beer. If you want to order food alongside your beer, that's secondary.

A TERRIBLE BOTTLE OF FLUID ATTEMOTUBG   TO PASS OFF AS WINE!

Bouught this VIDLwhatever wines, went home and opened the orange... taste like REALLY bad homemade wine. I can't say I've ever had a wine this terrible! 50% off Wednesdays. You shouldn't even give this wibe away! you should dump it out and save the bottles and try to do a better job next time. I felt really ripped off.!

Mark M.

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.

First stop on our beer crawl through weird Asheville. Nice place and super busy. Grab a menu and find a table. Order at the bar when you are ready. Liked that they have some curated flights. I grabbed the lager flight. The pils was really good but my fav was the lime drop. Along the line of a bud light lime. No food but the menu sounded great. Next time! Pretty busy and lots of people. Cool local vibe but there were lots or tourists too.

Seasonal flight.
Marianne L.

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.

Hoppy flight

Hoppy flight is a great way to introduce yourself to their world of IPAs. Great vibe and bartenders are attentive and knowledgeable.

Kung pao chicken wings
Mike W.

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.

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.

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!

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. Nicely balanced, not over the top, with a deeply flavorful crust. If you're in Asheville, I would consider this a must visit destination.

Mrs. K. and I took the two seats at the end and I walked up to the bar to order drinks and dinner. A pint of the "American Style Lager" for me and their "Spicy!" ginger beer that Mrs. K. said was good but not all that spicy. Less than ten minutes later, my chicken wings arrived. 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. When it was done, back into the Sprinter van and off to figure out where we're parking for the night. I had tried to make a reservation on their RV parking app but they're booked two or three weeks out! Note: The restrooms are upstairs and they have an elevator.

Anyway, we both came here with high expectations and they surpassed them! Everything was so delicious on tap. It really elevates their beers even more. We did two flights and our favorites were the honey orange trippel and 1554 for me, and obviously juice force for my husband but also sweet ride. We both enjoyed the Trippel on draft more than bottled that we've previously had. The place was super busy (5 pm on Sunday of Labor Day weekend) but the line kept moving and the bartenders were friendly. There were a bunch of seating options, both inside and outside. We sat near the river and then moved to the covered pavilion when it got warm. There were a lot of yard games to keep people entertained. Two food trucks also on property which were good. There were a ton of kids but it didn't feel like it was overrun with kids or anything like that. They really nailed the vibe of making it welcome to everyone. There were activities for kids to play and they mainly stayed on the lawn section because of the fun stuff they had for them. It was really nice to see couples, groups of friends, older people, young people, and families all coming together for a good time and some good beer. You don't see places that ace it that well too often! We can't wait to come back!

If you are visiting Asheville this is a "must" stop during your stay! In closing, this is for the folks at New Belgium, please bring back the Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough collaboration y'all had in 2016. I believe it will be an exciting 10 year anniversary collaboration!
