Do not miss Sierra Nevada for the place itself and the road they
built wending up that hill to the brewery. Those large lanterns on the bridge posts on the way up were created from scrap stuff a local artist found on the building site while it was under construction. The entire brewery and restaurant were built exclusively from timber harvested on site only for use on the job. Take the brewery tour if you can get a reservation. And make sure you get one for the restaurant, too - that's a very popular place: A shelter for tourists from the savagery of on-street life in Asheville proper, which has become a real ****e hole.
