Шаблон:Infobox company Green Man Brewery is a craft beer brewery in Asheville, North Carolina. It is Asheville's second officially established brewery.[1]
History
Green Man Brewery was started in 1997 in the brew pub Jack of the Wood in downtown Asheville.[2] Initially brewed in dairy tanks at the brewery's inception, the operations were relocated to a new brewery and connected taproom nicknamed "Dirty Jack's"[2] in 2005, located in the South Slope area of Downtown Asheville, Buxton Avenue.[1] Ownership switched from Joe Eckert to the current owner in 2010,[2] while original brewer John Stuart continued to brew for Green Man after the change in owners.[2] As the company's distribution footprint widened and popularity of Green Man's beers rose, the production abilities needed to be scaled up. An upgrade in 2006 saw production grow from 7bbl to 14bbl, and was later redoubled in 2012 to a 30 bbl brewhouse. In 2015, expansion continued with the addition of an 18,000 ft² bottling line, packaging, and shipping facility.[3] In addition, there is also a 3,000 ft² beer garden in this new facility.[4]
Beers
The year-round flagship beers offered by Green Man are their ESB,[5][6] IPA, and Porter.[7] Green Man's flagship beers are their own take on traditional English styles, made with imported English malt; the beers are not pasteurized.[8] Offered alongside the English styled flagship beers are a rotating line-up of seasonals, such as Rambler, Harvester, Leaf Blower,[9] Wayfarer,[10] and Forester. Special limited releases happen throughout the year, including beers from Green Man's Barrel program.[8] The brewery has also had specialty programs such as a featured historical series that offered recipes from 1850-1915.[11]
