Not in Hendersonville, located in Fletcher about a 25 minute drive, but if you don't mind the short drive it's worth seeing. Sierra Nevada spent $300 million building this facility and when you see it you'll understand why. Of course beer, lots of it and several bars indoor and outdoor (weather permitting), but it also has a very good restaurant, you'll need to put your name in and wait. In the warmer months the "back porch" is really nice; fire pits, rocking chairs, music, "corn-hole" games, fun in the nice weather...

Great place to visit even if you're not staying there, built over 100 years ago, amazing hotel, spa, restaurants and golf. It's an expensive place, but you can park, grab a coffee or glass of wine and just explore the place for a couple hours, very unique.
