The Whale :: West Asheville

The Whale :: West Asheville A Craft Beer Collective in West Asheville. The idea of a craft beer collective is a concept we spent a lot of time thinking about.
(461)

A lot of our friends work in craft beer, and when we set out to do this, we wanted to approach it from a perspective of gathering the ideas of people in our community about what we were lacking, as a community, and creating a space we all wanted to hang out in. We want to create something approachable, friendly, and at the same time cater to a more knowledgeable crowd of beer consumers.
