About The Admiral
In 2007, The Admiral aspired to create an unexpected restaurant that thrived on its talent and creativity. With the procurement of a modest cinderblock building on the wage earning side of town in West Asheville, they succeeded in their goal – to serve an inventive cuisine without having to hold on to convention, all in an atmosphere that lacks the restraints of standard technique.

About Catawba Brewing
Catawba Brewing Co. has been an industry leader in Western North Carolina’s craft beer scene for nearly two decades. The company was founded in 1999 by WNC natives, the Pyatt family, who were inspired by their weekend homebrew hobby. From humble beginnings, the business has grown exponentially to become a major craft beer supplier across five states. Catawba now operates breweries and tasting rooms in three NC cities – Morganton, Asheville, and Charlotte – embracing a hybrid wholesale/retail strategy. With the 2018 acquisition of Palmetto Brewing Co. in Charleston, SC, the Pyatt family hobby has spawned one of the Southeast’s largest and most diverse craft brewing entities.
