Founded in Asheville, North Carolina in 2012 by Walt and Luke Dickinson alongside Ryan, Rick, and Denise Guthy, Wicked Weed quickly became a craft darling. Known for its hop-forward ales and sour program, the brewery captures the creative spirit of its mountain town origin.
Wicked Weed Brewing was built around pushing the boundaries of craft beer, heavily inspired by West Coast hop profiles and Belgian sour traditions. Brewed in their Asheville brewhouse, Pernicious represents their flag-bearing effort to create a dry-focused, highly aromatic hop showcase.
