Did they ever make an announcement and I missed it?
Anything come of this?
I can’t believe there is no “another hotel/brewery” snark in the replies! Way to go, commentators!
Hotel/brewery combo – I think you’re on to something! 😉
Sure – I like it. Hand over your car keys, check into your room, and next to the TV remote, there’s a row of spigots.
Enjoy your stay! Chug-a-lug!
Awesome!!
hic.
I suspect there is less snark surrounding an established brewery bringing a major distribution center with lots of jobs to Asheville than someone else starting a small craft brew pub on the South Slope.
But I could be wrong. The same folks who whine about hotels and breweries seem to bemoan the lack of industry and jobs here so…
I’m hoping that a large brewery will look at purchasing the now empty BalCrank facility on Reems Creek Rd in Weaverville. It’s a beautiful piece of property and Weaverville needs a brewery! 🙂
Could Cigar City Brewing out of Tampa be one of the potential buyers? Heard they were looking in the area for expansion plans late last year as well.
I don’t think they’re looking for anything that big. The rumor about them is a small tasting room on the South Slope or somewhere else downtown I believe.
I sure hope so…..
all signs point to yes
