14 Dec 10 Sour Growler Tuesday, BACCO Beer Dinner, Westbrook Launch & More!
Ever since we ran Petrus Aged Pale draft for growler fills, people have been begging for us to put it on again. The draft version of this beer was a one time, commemorative release and we wanted to save the last keg for a while. With the Christmas season in full swing, we thought this was the right time to put a smile on all the sour-heads faces so at 5pm tomorrow (Tuesday) we’ll be offering growlers of this most sour gem! The draft of this is markedly more sour than its original, bottled counter-part so if you are a fan of barrel aged sour/wild ales you do not want to miss this one! At 7.3% ABV and barrel aged for over 20 months, the flavor and aroma of this golden blonde ale are incomparable.BACCO Italian Beer Dinner (12/16)

14 Dec 08 A Lowcountry Beer Drinkers Gem
Some friends came by yesterday, and we headed downtown to play tourist with them. I thought I pretty much knew all the places I wanted to know already – except some restaurants I’ve yet to try.
As we needed to buy some liquor for another upcoming event, we dropped into The Tavern Liquor Store on East Bay Street.
We got talking to Gary, the owner, and a guy came in with a container of beer. Turns out it came from The Charleston Beer Exchange which is right nearby on Exchange Street.
We took a walk in, and found a wonderful stock of beers from around the world. Many top-class Belgian ales, and some local craft beers, including those from The Coast Brewery in North Charleston.
The way it works is quite simple. Initially you buy a container for $5, and then you have it filled with the draft beer of your choice. I chose the excellent Coast ESB. That cost $12. When you’ve drunk the beer, you bring it back, and get it refilled with more draft beer of your choice.
They are currently open from 11am -9pm Monday thru Saturday, and from Noon – 6pm on Sundays.
The Charleston Beer Exchange has been open only around a month, but I’m sure it will prove popular with visitors and residents alike. I know for certain that I’ll be back there again!
