⚠️ WARNING ⚠️
THE NIGHTMARE is RETURNING! And this time the CURSE haunts us with SUMMER HEX!

𝕱𝖗𝖎𝖉𝖆𝖞 𝖙𝖍𝖊 13𝖙𝖍 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐇𝐞𝐱: 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐬 - The insanity has a death-grip over our whole weekend.

We are starting Friday the 13th with three Can & Draft Offerings, the first being a big collab with @chsfermentory sure to be spooky AF, and the others are too diabolical to even hint about at this time. To get all your blood extra hot we will have Asheville’s favorite Head Brewer / DJ @brandonmanitoba firing up the JAMs. Worried your little tum-tums might not be able to handle all the hellish good times, well, don’t worry we got your sweet and tasty hook-up with @honeybadgerbakes and his special 13th inspired menu.

After a ghoulish Saturday of catching our breath and recharging our energy crystals, we hit this HEXED-filled weekend again on SUNDAY. This time with our friends from @hotstufftattoo . Not only will we be celebrating their glorious 12th anniversary, but we will also drop a special Double Can Collab Mix Pack featuring artwork from the SULTAN of INK himself @dannyreedtattoo and fellow shop GURU @jon.sanford . Look out for some devilishly dope artwork to take home and the presence of the most GNARLY TATS in AVL. All that hot stuff will surely kick up an appetite, and again we have your tummy’s locked down with the absolute BEST RAT THEMED VEGAN FOOD the world has to offer @the_trashy_vegan . They will be serving up their kickass animal-friendly dishes to help close out the Cursed-Filled weekend.

YOUR ATTENDANCE IS REQUIRED AND NON-NEGOTIABLE. Without you, the HEX will grow past the weekend and consume all days of all years!!!! BHAWHAHAHAHA BAHHWHAHAHAH

Hey, we heard you and WE MADE MORE! “𝕀 𝕎𝕒𝕟𝕟𝕒 𝔽𝕖𝕖𝕝 𝕥𝕙𝕖 ℍ𝕖𝕒𝕥 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙 𝕊𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕓𝕠𝕕𝕪” is a Fruited Hard Seltzer with a Houston-sized load of Pineapple and a stupid amount of Coconut. It’ll definitely help you beat the heat with somebody who loves you! That...uh...yeah...that’s for sure.

5.8% ABV, and it tastes like a friggin’ Pina Colada. Also, did we mention that it’s a Hard Seltzer? Oh, we did?

Huh, yeah, woo
Hey yeah, huh
Ooh yeah, uh huh, yeah
I wanna dance

Feeling too much of that heat?! Crack a few of these!

AVAILABLE IN THE TAPROOM NOW AND ONLINE FOR NC SHIPPING OR LOCAL PICKUP TODAY!

Yep, you guessed it...MORE CASK ALE! It’s gonna be cool one day...we swear it!

“A Bit of Clairvoyance” is our newest Dark English Mild. We wanted to keep whipping up Milds, and half the fun with these little beers is all the experimentation within the style guidelines. So we snagged some new-to-us hops, modified the grain bill a bit, and got after it!

Mashed with @riverbendmalt Southern Select, a touch of Special B, a touch of Pale Chocolate, and a touch of Crystal 60. We then hit it in the Whirlpool with an abundance of some very choice Target hops (courtesy of our UK hop-sourcing buds @hollingberyandsonhops ) before fermenting it a tad cooler than usual with our Pub Ale yeast, and of course...spunding for that 100% natural Cask-level carbonation.

We experience fresh Brown Bread layered up with a nice Fig jam, a rich malty sweetness, and a robust Black Tea meets Petrichor kind of bitterness, with a very high level of balance and crushability. Due to pulling back on that grain bill and fermenting a bit cooler, this is absolutely a bit more of a mellow Mild than what we’ve made in the past. That being said, this was intentional, as it provides a really fun exploration of the Target hop, set on a familiar backbone we all know and love. Keep your eyes peeled, we’ll be doing the same thing with ANOTHER new-to-us hop on the next Cask Ale! OMG LEARNING...WITH UK HOPS?!

On hand-pump for on-site consumption, but bumped up to normal CO2 levels for off-site draft and cans! OH, BABY! OH, BABY! OH, BABY!

What’s a “Death Rattle Paradox”, you ask? Honestly, I have no clue. BUT THIS BEER IS A MANGO WATERMELON KETTLE SOUR GOSE WITH SEA SALT AND CORIANDER, SO HEY!

Mashed with @riverbendmalt 2-Row, a blast of White Wheat, some Flaked Oats, and a touch of Honey Malt. Soured overnight in our Kettle, then boiled and hit in the Whirlpool with a bevy of Coriander and a blend of Sea Salts. Fermented on the cooler side with our House IPA yeast, and absolutely pummeled with Watermelon and Mango. And at 6.3% ABV, this is a Summer treat for sure.

We get an experiential mindfuck of sitting by the ocean, sipping on a hollowed out Mango filled with Watermelon juice while the waves lap at your feet and you question why the hell you even went on this stupid family reunion trip to Myrtle Beach in the first place. Can’t the kids just shut up? You can’t get any further from them, for cryin’ out loud, you’re sitting in a chair IN THE OCEAN! So crack open a cold one and immerse yourself in that kinda paradise.

Fresh Batch of Kölsch means…

𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞!

We’d like to wish Clinton Walker (@seewalk4 ), our Director of Sales and resident DISC GOLF aficionado, a heartfelt goodbye and a sincere thank you. He came on board way before we ever opened our doors as one of our first employees and investors. He has helped to grow the company across North Carolina, and beyond. He hand-delivered a massive majority of our beer since we opened, if you have enjoyed a DSSOLVR beer outside of AVL it’s most likely thanks to Clinton! We’re so very grateful for his help, sass, and friendship along the way (and his family’s dope-ass Honey wasn’t a bad plus!).

Alas, the time has come to say goodbye as he departs for a new journey in Austin, TX. If you see him, give him a big smile and a friendly wave of farewell. Maybe buy him a pint? And don’t forget to thank his god-send of a partner and better half @jobrasch for joining him on their next adventure. We will super miss them both, but we couldn’t be more excited for them to start the next chapter of their lives! LOOK OUT TEXAS YOU GOT SOME OF YOUR FINEST MAKING THEIR WAY BACK INTO TOWN!!!!

“Phantom Tiptoe” is a Hazy DDH IPA, and it’s pretty neat. We teamed up with the wonderful beauties at @goodwordbeer and @the8thstatebrewing ONCE AGAIN for yet another 3-way IPA collab. We wanted to go with a soft, fluffy body with an onslaught of hops in an approachable IPA format. Hey, good news: we did that!

Mashed with @riverbendmalt 2-Row and a medley of Golden Naked Oats, Flaked Wheat, a touch of Dextrin Malt, and Brewer’s Crystals for that little something extra. We hit it in the Whirlpool with Ella, fermented it with our House IPA yeast, dry-hopped it with MORE Ella, and then dry-hopped it a second time with Ekuanot, Cashmere, and Meridian.

We experience Grapefruit pith and Pineapple pulp, a bowl full of Honeydew Melon rind, dried Apricot rings, and a welcoming and firm bitterness with an Orange Tang sorta deal on the finish.

AVAILABLE IN THE TAPROOM AND ONLINE FOR NC SHIPPING OR LOCAL PICKUP TODAY!

ALSO! We’re sending some draft (and a few special kegs!), along with a number of cases of this release to SC for a party on Friday with our Eighth State buds. Come on down to their taproom in Greenville, SC and say hello!

MAMMA MIA! THAT’S A CRISPY COLLAB LAGER!
❄️🧊🍕🧊❄️🧊🍕🧊❄️🧊🍕🧊❄️
We teamed up with the Hoofy Mayne Juicelords (@hoofheartedbreweryandkitchen ) and whipped up YET ANOTHER tasty lil treat for y’all. We combined the best of both worlds to bring you a CRISPY AND FROOOOTY TOOTY ITALIAN PILSNER!

“Cold Caprese Pizza” is named after yet another Savannah mishap, wherein we ordered a Caprese Pizza and received the truly coldest pizza we have ever laid lip to. Like, the pan legitimately left a condensation mark on the table and was SWEATING in the room temp heat, it was so cold. Mashed solely and singularly with @riverbendmalt Pilsner and hit with our trusted Lager treatment on the hot side. Hopped very aggressively in the Whirlpool with Pacifica and Hallertauer Mittelfruh, fermented low and slow with our House Lager yeast, spunded for dat 100% natural carbonation, and dry-hopped with Tettnanger and Saphir before being laid down to Lager for many moons in our Horizontal Tanks.

We experience freshly-tossed Pizza dough, romantic bouquets of Wildflowers in the evening, sitting like 4 feet from someone who just peeled a Mandarin Orange, and a hint of Lemon Balm steeped in a cup of super mellow White Tea.

We love you, @trebag77

ANOTHER WEIRD SELTZER?! AND IT’S BLUE?! You bet your sweet tuckus it’s friggin’ blue.

“Into These Digital Depths” is a Blue Raspberry Lemonade Sour Hard Seltzer. It is very sour. It is very blue. It is very much a Hard Seltzer.

Fermented with just an unbelievable amount of Lemon juice and Blue Raspberry. It’s just… I mean… Okay...so this tastes and smells like someone melted Blue Raspberry Dum Dums into fresh, homemade Lemonade. Or, like, if someone took a Baja Blast and squeezed fresh Lemons into it. Dangerously drinkable for these hot Summer days we seem to find ourselves in. And at 5% ABV, you’ll just about say “Oh, hey...this is...cool? Is this cool? All I know is that I need more.”

Releasing on Friday for your digital and analog enjoyment.

We had the homies from @livingwatersbrewing back out to brew another collab destined for barrels (SO...MANY...BARRELS…) and had a little left over, so we decided to whip up a few variations on the base beer!

“Caressed by Memories” is an Imperial Baltic Porter, coming in right at 10% ABV. Mashed with a base of @riverbendmalt Southern Select and a melange of Specialty and Roasted malts. Hopped assertively in the kettle, then fermented low and slow with our House Lager yeast. We racked the base into 3x different kinds of fun barrels for future projects, and then transported the remainder into a smaller tank where it was allowed to Lager for over two months until it was juuuuuuuuuuuust right. We then bottled and kegged some of the base beer before splitting it in two and throwing just a truly asinine amount of adjuncts at each.

•BASE - No adjuncts, no nothin’. Just good ol’ fashioned Imperial Baltic Porter. Notes of thicccc malted Chocolate shakes with shaved Dark Baker’s Chocolate, Leather belts wrapped in a big ol’ Tobacco leaf, and subtle hints of super secret Pralines. Hell yeah.

•MAPLE/VANILLA - We took the base Imperial Baltic Porter and aged it on just a truly stupid amount of Madagascar Vanilla (almost 2#/bbl) along with a very hefty amount of Maple Syrup. The result is a delicious marriage of breakfast and dessert, with just explosive notes of Maple hard candies on top of Vanilla Ice Cream scooped on top of fresh Chocolate Chip pancakes just absolutely smothered in Maple syrup.

•COFFEE/COCONUT - We aged this one on the most Coconut and the most Coffee we’ve ever put in a beer. Over 1#/gal of Dessicated Macaroon Coconut and over 10#/bbl of Coffee (we selected some amazing El Goyo beans roasted by our dearest buds @cooperativecoffeeroasters ). The dosed liquid is reminiscent of Cocoa Truffle bars, lil baby Coconut Macaroons, all drowned in super chocolatey Coffee-soaked brownie batter.

We’ll be doing a rotating draft release of these starting with the base and all are available in bottles…NOW!
