“The decision to can the lager was an easy one,” said UpCountry Brewing’s owner, John Cochran. “It’s such a crisp beer, especially at this time of year, that it’s very approachable. Additionally, the artwork designed for us by Good Beer Hunting is so beautiful and I can’t wait to see it on the shelves around town.”

Six packs of 12 oz. cans of the UpCo Lager can be purchased at the taproom or around Asheville starting next week. Keep an eye out in stores for this brew when shopping for your next adventure.

UpCountry Brewing is located at 1042 Haywood Road in West Asheville and provides a full menu featuring craft beer, cocktails, and food.
