Drinks & Nightlife in W AVL to RAD area

Recommendations specific to West AVL to RAD area. (not including downtown).
They serve locally brewed beer and peanuts. A few food trucks hang out in the lot. There is a huge outdoor area with games too and many art galleries near - hence the name River Arts District (RAD).

This is a cool spot to hear live music on the river with a large area to walk around. Most of the buildings are from repurposed materials and the place is huge with lots of land that backs to the river. they have a limited, but very good menu and drinks and many places to sit and hang out.
