I never went to the old Ale Asylum, but have been a fan of their beers for a long time. Hopalicious is one of my go-to beers, and Ambergeddon is another fantastic beer.
I headed out to the brewery two weeks ago with a friend of mine I haven't seen in a while. I happened to have the specialty brew when I was there which was the Blood Red Ale. I also happened to have three of them. Believe it or not but this wasn't my first beer, but you'd have thought it was after drinking those in a small window of time.
The brewery/tasting room has their neat art/beer designs up on the wall. The bartenders are quick and courteous. While I did not eat when I was there, I did notice (before those beers took effect that is) their waitstaff seemed to move quick as well. The way the kitchen is set up is a bit awkward, as you can see into as you walk in. The back portion of the dining room also has an awkward amount of open space that needs "something" back there.
All in all, I had an incredibly enjoyable evening (not sure I had to reiterate that part) and will be back. I am just not a fan of the haul it is for me to get out there, and if I plan on those three beers again, I am going to need to make more friends that don't love beer as much as I do.
