Overview

Asheville’s reputation as one of the top cities for brews in the Southeast is well-deserved, but the huge number of breweries to choose from can be intimidating for visitors. Discover which breweries are worth the hype on this Asheville brewery tour, which takes you to craft breweries with behind-the-scene access and ample pours at each. Unlike other Asheville brewery tours, this one is led by a certified cicerone, a recognized expert when it comes to beer.

We really enjoyed getting to know our group during the tour as we tasted different varieties of beer. Luminosity at Turn Leaf and the Porter at Green Man stole the show! Mark, our cicerone, was a wealth of knowledge.

We had a group of only 4 people, which allowed Mike to take us to smaller breweries. He was very knowledgeable and definitely had a love of brewing and history of beer. Very informative.

The tour ended up being just my wife and I but Michael agreed to still do the tour. Very informative tour and Michael had us tasting very diverse beers that he planned out to avoid ruining our taste buds up front.

I’ve been on beer tours before, but this one takes the cake! Very knowledgeable tour guide that did a deep dive into many aspects of brewing, alcohol laws, physiological responses to beer consumption, etc. And it was fun! Got my nerd and buzz on with a great group. Highly recommended.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

I’m so glad you had a good time nerding out while drinking some great beer! :) Thanks again for joining us!

Incredible experience

Tom_T, Aug 2021

Our guide was very knowledgeable on how beer is made, it was very interesting. The beers that we tasted were awesome. I would highly recommend this tour.

Nice tour, needed one more brewery of the amount of time

Karen_D, Jul 2021

Wish it had been over 3 breweries, not just 2. Jo was very knowledgeable and was great at giving a solid overview of brewing and the history of Asheville. According to the sight, we were supposed to start at Hi-wire and that was changed the day of. Again, for the money, it should have covered 3 breweries.

Response from Host, Jul 2021

Hi Karen, I’m so glad you had a great time on the tour with Jo! Due to Covid, Hi-Wire isn’t quite ready for tour groups, so we got to show you around a local favorite instead. BREW-ed offers two and three hour tours that visit two or three breweries. You chose to join a two brewery tour, which is why it didn’t visit three breweries. :) Maybe next time we’ll see you on a three brewery tour? Again, glad you had a good time!

Awesome

Michele_T, May 2021

Very knowledgeable guide Great humor Good communication skills Variety of beer Convenient location Not to much walking

Here for the Beer!

Wonderful beer and guide.

Linda_S, Apr 2021

This is one of the best beer tours that we have been on. Cliff was very informative and knowledgeable about how beer is made and the growing industry in Asheville. We had a full flight of beer at each stop. Four different beers at each of the three breweries. We would highly recommend this tour.

Awesome!

Dawn_O, Mar 2021

Cliff was awesome! Very knowledgeable on his beer, and the brewing process. His history of the beer culture in Asheville is top notch. Highly recommended
