    The Highland staff gathers at 8 a.m. one day to try the different spice combinations. “Someone will say, ‘Too much vanilla or too much nutmeg’ or whatever, and I’ll go back and tweak it according to how the panel is leaning,” Lyda said. “We keep doing that until we get a winning combination.”

    Those spices are always kept secret, and it’s a great guessing game each year for Cold Mountain fans who wonder just what went into the brew. Lyda will only say he is “happy with how it turned out.”

    If it was it may have been by only a week. I was on vacation this time last year and in town for the release party

    Hit Asheville last week. Hit City Beverage in Winston-Salem today. Moving west, and the Triangle should get it soon.
