The Thirsty Monk in Asheville, North Carolina

Eric asked around about the place to go to sample beers, and The Thirsty Monk was recommended.  Having recently discovered malty beers, Eric has found that corner bars don't offer a large enough selection to meet his interests.

 We walked around waiting

 The Monk to open at 4 pm.

The Thirsty Monk has three
floors with different styles
of beers & ales.

The basement has

Belgian Style Beers.

Go Ommegang!

The monk watches
over all who drink here.

I like looking through

lists of beers.

Eric & the bartender
discuss the beers he
has tried and enjoyed.

The Thirsty Monk also sells bottles to go.  Eric made his choices and he was done beer shopping for the day.
