atmosphere of the '80s into the vibrant city it is today.
Asheville has been called everything from Beer City
U.S.A. to the Happiest City in America to the Paris

Drink and Pedal - Imagine pedaling sideways as you enjoy a brew or glass of wine

WHERE TO EAT
Early Girl - The taste temptations coming out of this kitchen keep locals and
visitors clamoring for more. This farmto-table eatery on Wall Street puts the
spotlight on locally grown and organic

Asheville Pizza and Brewing Co. There's a location on Coxe Avenue in
downtown, but if you want to have a
meal and a $3 movie, then head just a
bit north of town to the location on
Merrimon Avenue. You won't find better pizza in Asheville. Plus, check out
their craft beer. Among year-round
brews they produce, I'm a fan of Shiva
and Rocket Girl, but if you like a dark
beer order up a Ninja Porter.
