TONIC MRKT | Asheville Craft Beer

Love this little local beer store. The owners and pups are great and so friendly! Yes, the prices are high, however we like to support local. Their beer selection is very unique and you can select whatever quantity you want so it's worth it. We asked them for some recommendations for some new beers based on what we like and they have not disappointed. We highly recommend their Mead. They gave us a sample and we were hooked.

Not 24hrs as their hours of operations on google indicates. Visiting from out of town for the weekend and was very excited of the possibility for a craft beer store to be open after 9pm. Extremely disappointed when arriving to find the mall closed and reading further that “open 24hrs online”.

I was excited to check this place out, it seemed pretty cool and I’m at the outlets relatively often. My boyfriend and I like finding new drinks and checking new places out, so when we noticed this place we decided to go in. I decided to give two stars because the staff was pretty nice, they welcomed us when we walked in and offered to help out if we needed it. I think one of the staff was drinking a beer. My boyfriend and I walked around, they have several options and a lot to look at. We noticed that there were no prices listed anywhere, and there was a ton of dust all over the shelves and on the cans/bottles. After walking around for a while, we decided to pick out six basic regular-sized beers to try out. We went up to the cashier and he rang up our stuff, he told us our total was $73... for six beers. I understand that there’s a huge market for craft beer in Asheville, but this place is definitely overpriced. Our choices weren’t even anything special, we’ve gotten some of the same ones at Trader Joe’s for way cheaper. I can’t even imagine what their really fancy beers/drinks cost. I guess if you don’t know where to get reasonably priced craft beer, etc. then this place would be for you, but I personally won’t be returning.

I have never had a bad experience here. Been a frequent visitor since 2017 and I have never left disappointed. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and remember regulars, they always have great beers on tap and yes while it is slightly more expensive then huge chain store I always prefer to go somewhere supporting local business and people.

I was driving through Asheville on a trip. I called the store on a whim hoping I could find some beers I've been looking for. Rob was so helpful on the phone and even more helpful when I got to the store. I stayed to have a cocktail (it was delicious) and then he helped me pick out my beers. I have never been so excited to get home and try a beer. I will definitely come back again whenever I can be in Asheville.
