"Smoky Mountain Brewery has been creating popular beers for visitors of Gatlinburg for over 20 years. They have six flagship brews that are always on tap, as well as four seasonal beers that rotate throughout the year, and a “Brewmaster Special” that rotates every couple weeks. This way, you can try something new and different, or stick to the great beers that you know and love."

"When you dine at Smoky Mountain Brewery in Gatlinburg, we recommend eating in the enclosed deck for gorgeous views of the Smoky Mountains. Great food is served up with evening entertainment and their specially brewed beers."

They have a large menu with an eclectic array of dishes like pork chops, burritos and pastas, but what brings home the bacon here is the huge selection of beers."

"Located in the heart of Gatlinburg near Ole Red and the Great Smoky Mountains Rangers Office, Gatlinburg Brewing Company offers a variety of original beers as well as tasty food. They keep customers on their toes with a beer tap list that is updated weekly. You can also enjoy appetizers like breadsticks and chicken wings, or make a meal out of it with a delicious craft pizza!"

"Next up, it was over to Crafty Bastard where a Cuban food truck and a repurposed radiator repair shop greeted us. This funky and gorgeously open to the second story roof brewery is doing fascinating stuff with their concoctions, with White Arrow Pine Ale being SVV’s favorite and the Barkley Stout being mine."

"This nano-brewery taproom occupies historic building space in NoKno's Emory Place district. The rustic, chipped-concrete warehouse vibe augments a defiantly independent mentality that carries over to its 12..."

"There was wax attack at Hexagon Brewing, but we were feeling more of a German beer hall kind of afternoon, so we headed to Schulz Brau first for some hefes. Next up, it was over to Crafty Bastard where a Cuban food truck and a repurposed radiator repair shop greeted us. This funky and gorgeously open to the second story roof brewery is doing fascinating stuff with their concoctions, with White Arrow Pine Ale being SVV’s favorite and the Barkley Stout being mine."

"This new craft beer bar has been quick to hop on the Sunday Funday train. They’ve set up an impressive build your own Bloody Mary bar inside!"

"Located in Kodak, in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, Old Tennessee Distilling Co. handcrafts each bottle from scratch. Old Tennessee promises to deliver authentic spirits worthy of their legacy with each sip. Using cornmeal locally ground at the Old Mill in Pigeon Forge, sugar, yeast and water, their crystal clear, superior moonshine reflects a tradition spanning generations."

"All I saw when we walked in to Old Tennessee Distilling Co were stacks and stacks of Moonshine in just about any flavor you could imagine. I’m not a huge moonshine fan, but I’ve been told theirs is very good. It didn’t take long to realize they produce so much more than Moonshine, and believe me when I tell you their products are delicious."

"Now you can enjoy genuine Old Tennessee Distilling Corn Whiskey – made with malted barley and wheat – and Dumplin Creek Moonshine, all here at Old Tennessee Distilling. 3605 Outdoor Sportsman Place Kodak 865-401-2574"

"If you’re looking for a luxury hotel in Knoxville, look no further than The Tennessean. This downtown boutique hotel has an authentic Old World vibe, which is appropriate given that it was originally built for the 1982 World’s Fair. Luxurious amenities include a robe and slippers, daily turn-down service, 24-hour front desk staff, a dedicated concierge, and personal butler service available upon request."

"Right next door to Pres Pub and Bernadette’s is a third rooftop option in Market Square: Scruffy City Hall. While this rooftop may not have fire pits or beer trees, it still sports something truly unique. Friends, you must experience the “CinePub Under the Stars on the Scroof” where a projector plays movies and other various kinds of entertainment on the side of the building next door."

"Walk into Scruffy City Hall and you might think you walked into a house of worship. But although the three-story tribute to Knoxville’s scruffy culture is characterized by stained glass and is lined with church pews, it’s not your grandmother’s Sunday service. Like a city hall, this scruffy venue is a place where people gather for discussions on Tuesday."

"Located two doors down from Preservation Pub sits Knoxville’s cathedral of entertainment. Just like it’s name, Scruffy City Hall is a gathering place -- only people gather over food, drinks and entertainment rather than to discuss legislation. Walking upstairs will give you more than just a great glimpse of Historic Market Square."

"Blake Shelton wanted to keep his vegan and vegetarian fans happy. There’s great live music and some equally great vegan and veggie options. They serve an Impossible Burger and Impossible Chili here and vegetarians can stick with fried pickles, green tomatoes and their biscuits are awesome."

"If you want to have a little fun on your date night, head to Ole Red Gatlinburg!. Blake Shelton brought his restaurant and entertainment venue to the Smoky Mountains for both locals and visitors to enjoy. While you dine, enjoy live performances from rising country stars."
