Burial Beer Co.
Founded in 2013 by Doug Reiser, Jessica Reiser, and Tim Gormley in Asheville's South Slope District, Burial Beer Co. takes its name from the New Orleans Jazz Funeral tradition — a nod to the cycle of grain and hops through life and renewal. The brewery covers a wide range, from pilsners and pale ales to Triple IPAs and Imperial Stouts, without anchoring itself to any single style. Its label artwork is as distinctive as the beers, with each release carrying its own visual identity. Burial has since expanded beyond Asheville with a second taproom in Raleigh.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
