About Burial Beer:

The products and experiences that we dream up for you are meant to enhance connection and stimulate thought. This life isn’t long – so you can be damn sure we’ll make our time count.

Burial Beer Co. was dreamt up in Seattle by friends Tim Gormley and Doug and Jess Reiser. The three dove deep into the craft beer scene during their time in the PNW, which ultimately led to the decision to open their own brewery.

The name Burial and the brand that the company embodies was deeply inspired by the city of New Orleans, where Doug and Jess had lived prior to their time in Seattle. In NOLA, there’s a strong culture of celebrating life. Funeral processions become large parades with instruments, singing, and dancing. Everybody stops and joins in, even if they don’t know the deceased. We view our products, places, and experiences through this very lens, celebrating life’s fleeting moments with mindfulness and introspection.

The search for the perfect location ended when they found Asheville, NC. The three moved across the country in 2012, found an old transmission shop that would eventually become the original brewery and taproom, and opened their doors to the public in 2013 with a 1-barrel system in AVL’s South Slope District.

Burial Beer Co. is a brewery based in Asheville, North Carolina that produces a variety of beers, including IPAs, stouts, and other styles. The brewery’s name and brand are inspired by the New Orleans jazz funeral tradition of celebrating life while honoring the dead.

About Pilot Brewing:

All Small Batch, ALL Rotating All The Time.
Life is a journey with many turning points and milestones. At one of these points, it was finally time for Rachael Hudson to showcase everything she has learned as a professional brewer.
 
Trained under award winning breweries such as Hardywood Park, Left Hand, and NoDa Brewing Company, Rachael decided it was time to showcase everything she has learned on a nano scale.

So together with her husband, Jeff, a professional pilot , she fueled the beginning of Pilot Brewing.

A slight play on words, Pilot Brewing references aviation, but more importantly, focuses on small-batch experimental beer. Combined with a 3-barrel Pilot system and a half-barrel “Co-Pilot” system, Pilot Brewing endeavors to expand the boundaries of craft beer by brewing original recipes that represent traditional and experimental styles. All Pilot beer is gluten-reduced.

We love Plaza Midwood neighborhood and we’re thankful and proud to be a part of its character as well as maximizing community involvement by partnering with local charities.

Pilot Brewing takes pride in being woman-owned & brewed, and seeks to lift others up. We hope your next destination is Pilot Brewing.
