We’ll we’ve done it. We got a small bottling machine and we’re officially putting our labor of love in bottles. Charleston Beer Exchange and Whole Foods to start with. We might be putting a call out soon for volunteers to help with bottling, labeling, dating, etc so be ready.
Our latest seasonal, Rye Knot Brown, is out now. A bit more rye-ier than last year and so creamy and delish. Up next is one of David’s favorite styles: Smoked Porter (Alaskan’s version had him fall in love about 12 years ago!). We used cherry wood smoked malt for a very intense smoke but not at all harsh.
Lastly, a big announcement for all beer lovers coming soon!

We thank each and every one of you for your continued support of our little brewery. We quite literally wouldn’t be here without you.

Cheers!

The Charleston Beer Exchange presents a special evening of fine food and incredible beer at Shine!

November 3rd we’ll be co-hosting a special collaborative beer dinner with COAST Brewing and Foothills Brewing at Shine on Upper King St! This unique evening with the brewers/owners of both breweries collaborating on an amazing six course menu of pairings with their most special beers is sure to be unforgettable. Call us now for reservations at (843) 577-5446. Space limited to 30 people for this intimate evening. $75 per person.

We’re getting excited about the workshop this Saturday. If your signed up you’ll be receiving an email from me about deciding which style to brew so start thinking about that. We’ll be starting at 10am, bring a water bottle and we’ll provide lunch. You also may want to bring a notebook. Also, anything left in the homebrew shop will be on sale. Get your boots ready, see you Saturday. Also, as of right now, there are 2 spots left.

Bad News:  The Homebrew Shop will be closing, the last day being October 10. Thanks to those folks who supported the shop, we’re sorry we’re unable to continue.

Good News: On October 10 we will be having a homebrew workshop. Price is $100 and is limited to 10 people. What we brew will depend on the participants but we’re guessing an all grain brew of some sort so it will last several hours. David will focus on all aspects of homebrewing so don’t miss a chance to pick his brain.  $25 Deposit required. Lunch will be provided. Style of beer to be brewed will be up to attendees, you choose!

We get a lot of emails, a whole lot. A good bit of those have been investor inquiries and vendor requests. If your an investor, please write that in the subject line. Vendors, we appreciate your time but know that I cannot respond to all of the requests except for the very pertinent ones. If we need your service right now, we’ll be sure to get back to you. We look forward to expanding and bringing COAST to more beer thirsty consumers.

The homebrew shop will be closed Saturday, July 4th. Celebrate America by drinking American Craft Beer!

The Red Legs Scotch Ale has been out and is nearing it’s end. It is a wonderful change of pace from the Boy King DIPA- my taste buds were in malt shock!. Caramel malty, tea like with a well balanced smokiness. This beer also conditions beautifully. The whiskey barrel aged version will be released when ever it’s ready, probably late summer or early fall.

Our next seasonal is our ALTerior Motive altbier. A perfect summer pale ale it is super refreshing. This should be going out over the next week or so.

Closed: Saturday June 20 and Tuesday June 23. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We’ve got a new shipment coming in by Friday. Grains, Yeast and Kits should all be replenished nicely. We’ll be having 30% off dark roasted grains (Barley, Chocolate and Black)since they sell a little more slowly this time of year. Also, a heads up: This may be our last order. The time and energy it takes(and product waste - I lose more $ on yeast than I make it seems) may warrant the closing of the shop. I plan to see it through the summer and see where we stand at that point. I do want to thank the loyal customers we have had, it’s been a pleasure to see folks really get into homebrewing. Ya’ll keep brewin’!

One southern regional one by the fine folks at Pisgah.

One national one by Seven Bridges Organic.

We do have carry organic malt, but no organic hops at this time. You can buy them through 7 Bridges though.
