The Asheville Brews Cruise was voted in the top 7 Brewery Tours in the Country:
"For [now 4!] years running Asheville has been dubbed, "Beer City USA", with so many breweries within city limits, there's no question why. On the Asheville Brews Cruise, you visit breweries such as Highland Brewing Company, Pisgah Brewing Company and Asheville Brewing Company, as well as some of the local pubs and bars".

"Joe (Asheville Brews Cruise owner) is very focused on an informative, fun experience for his customers with continued support for the beer community. His Manager, Shawna Hart, and seven guides, are well trained (some even work at local breweries), and know all the area breweries, (their beer, their history), as well as local restaurants, attractions, the city and its beer scene. Their guides also encourage the social aspect of the tour between the Cruisers and the brewery employees. Tours include lots of beer samples, information, a gift and a grand time for all."

"Do we sound like beer amateurs? We’re not.
We’re a city that loves and supports its microbreweries and craft beer industry, where high-quality craft ales are made, drunk and appreciated by a beer-loving city. (We’re also a city with a remarkably powerful Twitter presence. You may have noticed."

“There’s almost an embarrassment of microbrew riches in Asheville. The last year has witnessed a liquid gold rush, starting in spring with Billy Klingel’s OysterHouse Brewing, located inside the Lobster Trap restaurant, serving the Moonestone Stout brewed with fresh oysters. November saw Bill Drew and Jonathan Cort’s Craggie Brewing, with a British-style Battery Hill Bitter as well as a spicy, hoppy Solshine Belgian ale. Then December welcomed what Kiss calls a “game-changer,” the Lexington Avenue Brewing Company.”
