Mardi Gras at Burial Beer Company

ByEric Gibson

It was the day after Valentines Day and we were wondering around downtown Asheville in search of some warmth.  It was brutally cold but somewhere came the unmistakable thump thump of live music.  Somewhere people were warm and having fun.  We rounded a corner, the wind whipping, and found ourselves onthe doorstep to Burial Beer Co.
