After tubing together a couple of weeks ago, our German friends who reside at the RV Park invited Doug, Katrina, Missi and I for a private tour of New Belgium Brewery (where they work).
The guys are here from Germany on a long-term stay to install the stainless equipment for the brewery.
David:
Michael guided us on a very informative tour.

We were thankful there wasn't a quiz at the end.
There's a lot to the brewing process!
Missi:
New Belgium is an extremely pristine operation.
No detail is overlooked.
These tiles are handmade locally; notice the bottle shapes.
First class.
Bottles awaiting the filling process:
Gorgeous hop-shaped lighting over the tasting bar:
Brewing began in March 2016 and already New Belgium is extremely popular, a fabulous place to go with family and friends (and your dog) on a hot summer day.
We've been there several times with Zuma.
It wasn't appropriate for Zuma to go on the tour and she was quite happy hanging out in Hula Girl in the A/C.
The line up in the air-conditioned "pub" section,
waiting to order a cold brew
on a steamy Saturday afternoon:
New Belgium has a signature beer called FAT TIRE.
These are examples of their Fat Tire bicycles:
The brewery and pub doesn't offer food but they schedule
a food truck in the parking lot:
We're not beer drinkers but Asheville is famous for breweries
and they are fun places to hang out.
All are dog-friendly.
Cheers!
