Brewing with the Brewsters at Frothy Beard in North Charleston
Originally I wanted to call this blog BrewWarriors. I didn't come up with anything when I searched but I later found out that there is a Brew Warrior on Facebook. So I changed it to BrewsterWarriors. I hope no one minds the change.
Anyway, one of my favorite small craft breweries in North Charleston is Frothy Beard Brewery, 7558 Peppermill Parkway. One reason is because they brew craft brews that are adventurous and unusual. They have a few regular beers like spicy Andale Pale Ale (think Speedy Gonzales), a chocolate oatmeal stout named Choconut( delish and a great PMS adjuster), Zingiber Pale Ale(yep, ginger and it does have a zing) and a scrumptious Belgian Tripel Called Out on Third. In addition to these, they brew small quantities of experimental beers. This is why I go. Like Forrest's box of chocolates, "ya never know what ya gonna get."
But another great thing you should know about them is they let "The Brewsters" our women's brewing club create some luscious beers with them. Under the guidance of Miss Macey, our fearless leader, we have an opportunity to brew some really fun and unusual beers for charity. Usually Joey, the head brewer is there early in the morning for a little extra guidance and we like it that way.
The last one we created was an apple red ale we named Red Delicious.. I was a little iffy on this but it came out GREAT! We brewed it to support The Center for Women in downtown Charleston which helps women through education and support services. Along with Frothy Beard, several other breweries welcomed members of our organization to their establishments. We had six breweries total that funded our project and saw $1. from each pint donated to our cause.
Thank You to: Frothy Beard, Holy City Brewing, Quest Brewing, Revelry, Tradesman, and Fat Pig Breweries.
