The tradition continues, AVL: Let’s all raise a glass for the return of Highland Brewing’s Cold Mountain Winter Ale.

After weeks of Helene-related delays, the beloved release weekend celebration officially kicks off Thursday, Nov. 7, and continues through Monday, Nov. 11, with live music, local food trucks, beer festivities, and more.

Pro tip: Sip classic Cold Mountain Winter Ale spinoffs (like fan-fave Coconut), plus try all-new brews like Breakfast and Barrel Aged.

Psst… single day and weekend tix are going fast.

Cheers to new beer
