About
Smoky Mountain Brewery opened in Gatlinburg in 1996 as East Tennessee’s first craft brewery, introducing house-made beers and a simple menu to a region unfamiliar with microbrews. Thanks to an ongoing dedication to exceptional quality, we evolved into a full-service restaurant known for delicious beer, fresh food, and warm hospitality.
As the craft beer movement grew, so did we, opening locations in Pigeon Forge, Turkey Creek in Knoxville, and Maryville. Today, SMB remains a favorite gathering place for friends, families, and beer lovers across the region.
What’s our mission? In short, whether you’re a first-time or long-time guest, we work together to ensure you have the best possible experience during every visit.
Proudly part of the Copper Cellar Family. As part of The Copper Cellar Family of Restaurants, Smoky Mountain Brewery is honored to be a cornerstone of East Tennessee’s dining and craft beer scene. Visit us at our locations in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Knoxville, and Maryville for great beer and delicious food served with genuine hospitality. Life tastes better here.
