Nerd Nectar
A New England-style IPA hopped at 6 lbs/bbl and Double Dry hopped with NZ hop varietals, Nectaron & Motueka. Expect a punch in the face of stonefruit and tropical fruit aromas and flavors. NZ Nectaron is the star of this show, and gives off loads of Nectarine, peach rings, fruit cocktail cups, with accent notes of ruby red grapefruit pith, light papaya & mango, along with a hint of resiny dankness.
Hazy IPA
6.8% ABV
Damn Fine Pilsner
A Crisp, hoppy and refreshing German-style Pils with enough complexity to pontificate about, yet simple enough to be an everyday drinker. Built on a blend of domestic & German pilsner malts then hopped exclusively with Czech grown Saaz hops. Expect floral, herbal and low spicy notes from the noble hops along side honey, lemongrass and cracker from the malt. PROST!

Gingers Have Soul
Crystal clear with just a touch of a green-yellow tint. Upfront the nose is low pine & sweet floral from the Peruvian ginger with a hint of herbal lemongrass, smooth yet spicy on the nose. The flavor is full of robust ginger flavor with an almost balancing sweetness. The heat from the ginger hits first & the addition of fresh Thai red chiles leaves a mild & tingling warmth in your mouth, that lingers between sips. Refreshing with a spicy hit that sneaks up on you and begs you to take another gulp. Made with 100% Organic Cane Sugar, Organic Peruvian Ginger juice, fresh Thai red chiles and pure Asheville Imagination.

This time of year demands a bold flavor. Green Man’s beloved stout delivers. An impressive blend of roasted black and chocolate malts creates an opaque color and alluring depth. A distinctive blend of hops allows the balanced flavor to shine. The Forester personifies a trustworthy companion for winter’s unpredictable darkness.

Harvester
Harvester is our interpretation of the classic German Marzen style. Magnum and Palisade highlight a creative hop blend. The result is a deep amber color and a hearty flavor that salutes the old world taste of the season.

Funk #49
Asheville’s first sour beer! A complex red ale aged for 6 months in one of our “magic” barrels, then for another 3 months in a rum barrel. We look forward to its return, one day! Who’s got the funk? We got the funk!

Schadenfreude
In Berlin this beer is served with a shot of raspberry or woodruff syrup. Drink it straight or try it sweetened with a syrup of your choice, maple syrup would be uniquely American. Green Man aged this beer for 4 months in a magic barrel – enjoy its bracing tartness and delicate hint of funk. Prost!

Raugupatis
This rich dark ale spent six months in a Maker’s Mark whiskey barrel. The oak barrel contributes wonderful coconut and vanilla notes that perfectly compliment the smooth darkness of the Baltic porter. Named after the Baltic god of fermentation, Raugupatis is a super limited batch of 250 bottles released in celebration of Asheville’s Annual Beer Week.

L'homme Vert
L’homme Vert is a chic traditional farmhouse ale. It’s brewed with 20% roasted butternut and acorn squash along with spelt and local rye malt. It was then fermented with a blend of Belgian saison and witbier yeast and finally magic barrel aged for three months. It has a crisp refreshing character despite it’s alcohol and will get funkier in the bottle over time. À la vôtre!

Nocturne
Vanilla and coconut aromas and subtle, complimentary flavors are the result of six months in second-use whiskey barrels. Hints of Applewood smoked malt combine with oats, dark Munich and roasted malts to create a wonderfully smooth, complex beer.

Green Man and the Chocolate Factory
The aromas swirl down on groovy Buxton Ave as Green Man and French Broad Chocolate Factory concoct their scrumdiddlyumptiousness next door to each other. This one of a kind Chocolate Stout uses single source Nicaraguan cacao that is infused into the beer with the extraordinarily unique technique of forced cavitation. It’s a collaboration of love bringing together two great tastes that taste great together. “You’re going to love this… just love it!”

Thriller
This hair-raising Saison is eerily good. Additions of Blood Orange and beets give it the grisly red color while Vienna, Rye & Wheat malts and 100% Amarillo hops give it supernatural flavor. Beware, you may want to howl at the moon…‘Cause this is Thriller.
Blood Orange Saison

None More Black
Norwegian brewers have an old tradition of brewing a beer and storing it so if they passed away during the year there would be beer for their funeral. If they didn’t die they would drink it in celebration. Our specialty brewer Mike is following this tradition with this pitch black strong ale aged for 12 months in whiskey barrels. Mike made it through another year so the public gets to enjoy this beer that is so black that if you ask how much more black it could be, the answer is none…..none more black.
