Whiteside Brewing to Open With Kuhn as Brewmaster

Lise and Bob Dews, owners of Whiteside Brewing Company are excited to announce that Dieter Kuhn will be the Brewmaster for the brewery in planning.

Kuhn comes to Whiteside after spending the past 13 years running Heinzelmannchen Brewery in Sylva, North Carolina alongside his wife Sheryl Rudd. Construction of Whiteside Brewing Co. (WBC) is currently underway and has a target opening of spring 2018. WBC is located at the crossroads of Cashiers in the beautiful mountains of Western North Carolina.

“Our dreams don’t always happen how we anticipate,” Kuhn said. “However, our dream is still alive but has involved closing Heinzelmannchen Brewery and joining forces with Lise and Bob Dews’ exciting project, Whiteside Brewing Company. Their generosity, creativity, professionalism and community mindedness have brought us all together to create this dream. We are blessed and honored to be asked to be a part of this team and what will surely become a premier destination in North Carolina.”

Added Bob Dews: “Lise and I are ecstatic that Dieter has decided to join our team. His passion for brewing quality Bavarian style beers is unmatched. We know that his natural ability to create tasty brews coupled with our state of the art brewing equipment will be the perfect match. … We are looking forward to serving you with the same personal service that you received over the years from Dieter and Sheryl.”
