The story of Burial begins long before the inception of our Asheville Taproom. After living in New Orleans, Doug and Jess Reiser moved to Seattle and were quickly introduced to Tim Gormley and the craft beer scene. The three started a beer blog and deepened roots within the industry, leading to the decision to start their own brewery.
The search for the perfect spot ended when they found Asheville, a town that offered a small, close-knit community with urban attractions such as bars, restaurants, music, and art as well as a connection to local agriculture.
After securing the location in the South Slope District of Asheville, and deciding the name, Burial, inspired by the city of New Orleans, Jess, Doug and Tim moved across the country (in the red van that now adorns the taproom gardens) and set up shop with a 1 barrel system at 40 Collier Ave. in June of 2013.
