Sweeten Creek Brewing – Asheville, NC

This micro craft brewery is unique in that is all about the outdoors. Even without the Covid situation, this tap room has very limited indoor seat and is all about the outdoors which includes a huge picnic table area, an outdoor stage for live music, a hammock and even has a satellite “tap barn” where you can get your beer without making the trek back up to the tasting room. This place gives you the feel like you are in someone’s back yard with a food truck, dogs running free and families on blankets. The only thing missing is a swimming pool. The beer-tender was very helpful and even gave us a 1st taste of the recently tapped seasonal saison. We were reluctant to try it after our last experience but needless to say it was good. We wrapped up the evening listening to a 2-man country/bluegrass band, eating a lobster roll and a delicious Pilsner and Brown Ale .
