The River Arts District Brewing Company - Asheville, NC

A downtown brewery. In the woods.

Small-batch brewing is all about creativity and exploration. Here at The RAD Brew Co. variety is our specialty. Classic ales and lagers sit alongside modern styles. Some are made by the book. Others are a little off-script. Regardless of the style, we believe, to our core, that BEER IS FUN. From brewing to drinking. All of our beer names have a callback that we hope hearkens a pleasant memory or at least invokes a chuckle or starts a conversation. Let's go exploring!

Our taproom and brewery is set inside a restored century-old stonecutter’s workshop. While the brewing equipment is modern, the taproom features original wood floors and other reclaimed elements from the renovation. We added a large deck and outfitted a beer garden so you can enjoy the surrounding forest environment and fresh air. Come find your comfort and stay awhile.

The RAD Brew Co. is a family-owned operation. Kids and dogs are always welcome!
