Most everyone is Asheville has a favorite craft brewery; Hillman is mine. Hillman Beer is a small, family-owned brew pub with really good food. The salads, bowls, burgers, and sandwiches are as good as you will find in any bar. Try the bread pudding before you leave. As for the beer, them make several excellent pilsners, ales, and lagers. My favorites are the Kolsch and the Old Fort as they are light and its easy to down two. If you want a stronger punch, try the more hardy Double Back Asswards at 8.8% alcohol. The employees at Hillman treat you more like a friend than a customer which makes the open-air atmosphere all the more inviting. You can sit inside or out to sip your beers in a true European beer garden surrounding. Well behaved dogs are welcome and you will see several. Again, don’t forget about the bread pudding.
