About Archetype Brewing - West
Archetype Brewing - West is a brewery, beer garden and brewpub on Haywood Road in West Asheville. It is the taproom and production facility, with very little separation between the bar and the brewhouse. Google describes it as flagship and experimental beers in a relaxed taproom with a family-friendly vibe.
Its website describes the beer as complex, mindful and living. The process is inspired by Belgian brewing practices and leans on yeast experiments and mixed-culture fermentation. The brewery says it uses local ingredients wherever it can.
The taproom pours more than beer. The website lists cocktails, wine, house-made hard seltzers, non-alcoholic and gluten free beers, cider and kombucha. The room has board games, a jukebox, Nintendo, couches, covered patios and a rooftop deck.
There is no kitchen. Food comes from partners in the shared Beacham's Curve courtyard, and you can have it brought to your table.
