Overview

From the creative team of 5-star pub crawls 'Cryptids & Creatures' and 'A Christmas Carol' in Asheville comes the newest tour: 'Watson's SOS! A Sherlockian Pub Crawl in Asheville' - a murder mystery experience set against the backdrop of Asheville's legendary South Slope brewery scene. You're not just along for the ride - Watson needs you! Sherlock has vanished mid-case, the murders haven't stopped, so Dr. Watson is desperately recruiting the sharpest minds he can find. That's where you come in: move bar to bar through some of Asheville's best craft beer destinations, gathering clues, cracking codes, and channeling your inner detective - guided every step of the way by a seasoned, unflappable Watson who keeps the story alive from the first pint to the final reveal. This isn't dinner theater - it's a living, breathing mystery that puts you in the starring role! *Brewery stops are subject to change due to events or availability at individual venues.

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Green Man Brewery

    30 min

    Watson kicks off the crawl with the most urgent telegram ever read over a pint. Facts are presented & troops are rallied: making it clear the game is very much afoot.

  2. 2

    Urban Orchard Cider Co

    30 min

    Gather evidence, decode Sherlock's cryptic notes, and piece together the mystery one pint at a time

  3. 3

    Stop 3

    30 min

    Interact with the story - Watson needs your instincts, your deductions, and occasionally your willingness to argue loudly about a clue

  4. 4

    Antidote Coffee & Cocktails

    30 min

    At the final venue, the group makes its case - and Watson reveals whether you've cracked it or let a killer walk free. Either way, the night ends with a toast worthy of Baker Street.

Meeting and pickup

Look for your Irish guide, Fergal O'Malley - already in his cups, to be sure!

End point

We’ll wrap up the crawl and enjoy a lively Q&A with Fergal himself.
