Our Beers

Our inspiration comes from the pastoral landscapes of Western North Carolina, the cozy corners of English pubs and the bustling service of European cafes
Whaley Farm Brewery features Appalachian-sourced farm beers brewed in a seven-barrel, two-vessel system right here in Old Fort. Our love for the English pub experience will be poured through our two Angram beer engines, and our devotion to continental lagers will pour through our Lukr side-pull faucets. We cannot wait to pour you a pint!

Sorry we are not offering growlers to go, or samples at this time.

*Please note we are brewing on a very small system in house while continuing construction on our production area post Hurricane Helene. These beers may change throughout the day. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

In Cask (Hand-pulled)

These beers are naturally conditioned/carbonated in the cask and hand-pulled through our beer engines to present a softer carbonation. The traditional method of dispense of “real ale” in the U.K. Served at 50F. Sorry, no samples…

-1910 London Porter 5.6% -19.2 oz-

Historical Porter recipe courtesy of Ron Pattinson. Pulled from the Fuller’s brewing logs, this porter is brewed with Pale, Brown and Black malts, Flaked Maize, a large dose of brewery-made Invert Sugar #3, East Kent Goldings hops (44 calc. IBUs), Fuller’s yeast, and a London Water profile.

-Best Bitter Ale 4.2% -19.2oz-

Light English pale ale. Maris Otter Pale, Brown, Pale Crystal Malt, Flaked Corn and 28 (Calc.) IBUs of East Kent Goldings (Hukins Hops, GB) Fuller’s Yeast. Notes of orange marmalade, toasted wheat bread, and a snappy mineral-driven backbone.

On the Lukrs (Side-pull)

Sorry our Lukrs are resting until we are able to resume normal, pre-Helene operations.

On Draft

-Dunkles Lagerbier 5.1% -.5L-

Munich-inspired Dark Lager. An array of Munich Malts, kissed with local Black Malt, gently hopped with Bobek and Strisselspalt hops. Fermented and lagered cold for 8 weeks. Silky, dark, quaffable and delicious.

-Smoked Helles 5.4% -.5L-

Bready, biscuity, woody wisps of smoke and a crisp bitterness. Pilsner, Munich, and 20% Beechwood smoked malt. Just enough smoke!

-2024 Grape Wild 6.0% - 12 oz-

Mixed-culture farm beer conditioned on second use, local, scuppernong and muscadines and sous-vide lemon peel. Absolutely bone dry and refreshing. Delicate aromatics with a delightfully bitter backbone, reminiscent of a white-wine spritz.

-American Bitter 3.8% -19.2 oz-

American Pale Pub Ale. Brewed with local Riverbend Regenified Southern Select 2-row (Avalon) malt, Riverbend Golden Wheat, and Riverbend C-50. Hopped with Sonnet (Oregon-grown East Kent Goldings) and a healthy dose of Cascade. Fermented with our house English yeast.

-2023 Barleywine 8.5% - 10 ounce -

Classic English Strong Ale. Maris otter pale malt, brewery-made invert sugar #3, East Kent Goldings hops (Charles Faram Farms, UK), Fuller’s yeast. Cold-conditioned for 6 months. Notes of toffee, marmalade, and honey-wheat toast, with an orange and white-pepper hop character.
