Impromptu Wedding at Oscar Blues Brewing Co., Brevard, NC
Filmed and edited by Jefferson Yount and crew. At Oscar Brews Brewing Co. I had a customer from Florida walk into Wag! A Unique Pet Boutique on Monday morning of Thanksgiving week. I chatted with about dog behavior, horses, etc. I gave her a referral to a trainer, animal communicator and a horse farm here. As she was leaving, I told her to call us if there was anything else we could help her with. She said, actually, do you know anyone who could marry my fiance and me today? They had gotten a marriage license here in Henderson County a month and a half ago and it was going to expire soon. Though they had made the trip back up here several times, they were never able to get married (national holidays, courthouse too busy, marriages only available on Wednesday and Friday, etc). So I called up my good friend Duke, of Duke Says Sold, and they planned to meet for the ceremony at Oscar Blues that evening. A local florist, Pam Headstrom of The Flower Market, offered to make a bouquet. When we arrived at Oscar Blues, there was a 16 person bluegrass jam session in progress. I wrangled the group into performing for the ceremony. When we went downstairs to set up, there were a group of folks with GoPro cameras who kindly agreed to film the entire thing, after they realized that I wasn't joking. It turned out that this group of people were professional video editors from Nashville, TN and they filmed and put together this great video, using only Iphones and GoPros. It was absolutely incredible and an experience that we all will not soon forget! Congratulations to the happy couple, Malinda and Lex!

HUGE FREERIDE LINES - BIGGEST JUMPS IN THE SOUTHEAST?!
Amazing time hitting the biggest and hardest DH jumps of my life! These trails are a dream! The ground was greasy but we still managed to send the biggest jumps - they are huge! The lines start at the top of the hill, with the jumps getting bigger and bigger as you go on. The shark fins/hips are especially nuts, as well as the final sender which is huge and steep! Lots of airtime.
There's a huge moto jump in the works, can't wait to ride it!

Asheville Ale Trail samples Oskar Blues Pinner IPA
The Asheville Ale Trail talks with Anne-Fitten Glenn of Oskar Blues Brewing in Brevard, North Carolina about their new release - the Pinner Throwback IPA. Drawing its name from the brewery’s counter-culture roots, PINNER IPA is billed as an easy drinking dry-hopped brew. Registering in at sessionable 4.9 percent ABV, PINNER will be the lowest alcohol content beer produced at Oskar Blues’ brewhouses. Dry-hopped with several different hops, including Mosaic, Citra, Eldorado, Azzaca, and a new experimental varietal, we’re told PINNER IPA will have”a tropical, stoned fruit aroma with hints of pine and smooth malt in the flavor”.

Oskar Blues Permit Violations
Officials with Brevard are now faced with more than $9,000 in fines after North Carolina's Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) fined the city after violating the state issued permit for its waste water treatment plant.
City officials including Jay Johnston, Director of Engineering and Utilities for Brevard, say the problems lie with Oskar Blues Brewery that's not treating their waste water properly before it leaves the plant. We are responsible for our permit and our violations, says Johnston. North Carolina DENR and the city recognizes that the first and the most immediate way to get back into compliance is for Oskar Blues to pre-treat their wastewater.
News 13 reported on the issues involving Oskar Blues lack of waste water treatment at their Brevard Brewery last September. Johnston said the waste water that comes from the plant is hot and at times reaches 140-degrees. There are also other issues with the release that impacts Brevard's waste water facility which is unable to treat the concentration of water coming from the brewery into Brevard's treatment facility. The city had given Oskar Blues a grace period to put in proper infrastructure, but Johnston said that period ended June 2013
Reports obtained by News 13 show Brevard has violated permit restrictions 13 of the last 16 months. The reason we are violating at the plant is connected to the effluent we are receiving from the Oskar Blues facility, says Joe Moore, Brevard City Manager.
Moore says in recent days officials at the brewery have presented plans for their treatment plant. He says the brewery has done some things to try and deal with the water issues but that it's not getting the job done. News 13 contacted officials locally and in Colorado at Oskar Blues headquarters, but a local spokeswoman said the company has no comment.
A letter dated June 9, 2014 shows DENR has fined the city of Brevard $2,147 for waste water permit violations for September 2013 and October 2013. The city received another fine for $1600 for November 2014 and $3100 for January 2014 waste water plant violations.
The city cannot pass the fines onto the brewery because there are currently no permitting policies in place to demand the brewery pay the fines even if evidence from DENR shows the plant is at fault. The City of Brevard plans to now move forward with issuing a permit policy to the plant to operate and use city water. In that permit will be specific requirements that the plant must meet to show that Oskar Blues is working towards managing their waste water issues.
Johnston says the brewery lets out approximately 15,000 gallons a day of waste water from their plant that then goes to Brevard's treatment center. The water ultimately spills out into the Davidson river which feeds into the French Broad.
Jeff Menzel, with NCDENR says the following about the violations: The limitations of the permit are set up to protect the environment and health of the stream, The French Broad. It takes oxygen out of the water when there are these limit violations. That has the potential to threaten the aquatic system, including fish, if the violations are allowed to continue, en masse.
Ultimately the fines would have to be paid using taxpayer money. City officials are trying to negotiate with DENR to bring the fines down and instead have the funds go towards improvements at the waste water plant. Johnston says he expects the violations of the city's permit will continue for another twelve months until Oskar Blues gets the necessary infrastructure to manage the waste water they're releasing on a weekly basis.

BHTV: Local Hard Cider is a Big Draw in Western North Carolina
You have probably heard about Western North Carolina's award-winning craft brewery scene, but the lesser known hard cider industry is on the rise. From the apple orchards of Henderson County to the tables of our top restaurants, hard cider is a beverage that's local to the core.
BHTV: Asheville's Small Business Community is Growing #GoLocal:
BHTV: Main Street Hendersonville, NC:
Asheville is known as Beer City, USA, but the lesser-known hard cider industry is taking off. Neighboring Henderson County is one of the largest apple producers in the country, making hard cider a truly local industry. Cider making brings together North Carolina's rich history of agriculture with our exciting craft beverage scene.
“We grow over 85% of the apples grown in North Carolina,” says Marvin Owings, Jr., director of Henderson County Extension. “We've got on average somewhere between a $24 and 30 million industry, just in apples alone, so it's a big part of this county. There's been a lot of interest in hard cider. It's really taken off. And a lot of folks like it because they really don't like a wine or a beer, so this is kinda in between.”
“We really started a cidery because of an absence of any cider in this area,” says Leif Stevens of Noble Cider. “We were the first cidery to start in this area, and it's a huge apple growing region. This area's really taken off for beer. We were all cider drinkers, and we were wondering, ‘Why are there no cideries in this area?’”
“Well, at Noble Cider, we had kind of a mission in the beginning that we talked about of using all local fruit and keeping that within the community,” says Stevens. “So, we use local apples from just down the road, we press them, we turn them into hard cider, and we send them out the door. So we're really in control of the process from fruit to glass. And it's great to be able to see an apple turn into your final product. And that's kind of been our mission from the beginning.”
“Unlike beer, we actually have the raw ingredients here,” says Stevens. “Asheville's just such a cool place, and it has great water, which I think has attracted all the breweries to this area, but we don't really grow any grains, so all that is brought in from elsewhere. However, we do have all the apples here in Western North Carolina.”
“The tannins that come from these more tart apples, it tastes like an apple is supposed to taste,” says Owings.
“A lot of ciders are very sweet,” says Stevens. “We wanted to go for a cider that was much closer to a wine. I often describe it as being a bit like a dry champagne. Cider is excellent for pairing with food. It essentially, as I said, is like a wine. So in a lot of ways it pairs with food better than beer. We find a lot of chefs actually cook with it. There's a lot of restaurants in town using our cider in various dishes.”
“There is a bunch of restaurants pushing local ingredients,” says Adam Wilson, owner and head chef of Square Root Restaurant in Brevard. “It helps the entire town survive, as well as puts fresh products on our plate. We like to support as many of 'em as we can. It's a gluten-free item that people have been asking for. I feel that Noble Cider's fine enough we actually serve it in a wine glass right out of the tap. It pairs well with what we serve it with.
