Allan Benton/Blackberry Farm/Evil Twin From Tennessee With Smoke Bottle Release (5/31)

May 30th, 2016

Allan Benton/Blackberry Farm/Evil Twin From Tennessee With Smoke Bottle Release (5/31)


Collaboration is at the heart of innovation for not only Blackberry Farm, but also our friend Jeppe at Evil Twin Brewing.  It’s no surprise they got together to make a beer with a mutual friend, Allan Benton of Benton’s Country Hams, whose smoked meats are treasured far and wide throughout the South and the culinary world!!!

From Tennessee with Smoke, is a 6.3% abv Smoked Farmhouse Ale, inspired by traditional European smoked beers and constructed from New World innovation.  A portion of the malt and hops were generously aged in Allan Benton’s famous smokehouse to allow them to be imbued with his unique earthy hickory smoke character.  The beer was finished with Blackberry Farm’s Belgian yeast strain back in early April, and this beer is finally ready to be uncorked!!!

Please join us tomorrow, Tuesday (5/31), at 5pm to get your bottles of this very limited and exciting beer!!!  If you are a fan of Evil Twin’s collaborations, Blackberry Farm’s saisons, and/or Benton’s Bacon, among other things, you will definitely not want to miss out on this golden opportunity of a beer!!!  See you tomorrow! 

We need your 6-pack holders!

Recycling used cardboard 6-pack holders is great, but reusing them is even better!!!  We’re running low, and we know a lot of you out there graciously save them for us to reuse, so now is the time to bring them on down to CBX!!!  Thank you very much to all our regulars who help us save the environment and keep us stocked on these valuable commodities!!!Edmund’s Oast Beer School!!! (6/15)

Edmund’s Oast will once again launch their popular Beer School series on the third Wednesday of every month. Led by Brandon Plyler, manager at The Charleston Beer Exchange and a Certified Cicerone, the focus for June 15 is Not So Sour.Sour Beer is not a style or really even a category of beer. Often super sour beers are what super fans crave. But, intense acidity turns off some folks new to these beers. For this class, we will feature beers that have a lighter touch of acidity to really give anyone a good taste of what is so exciting about sours!

IPA Double-Header: Elysian Space Dust & Sixpoint PUFF (5/24)

May 23rd, 2016
This  Tuesday (5/24) we will be tapping two double IPAs brand new to the Charleston market!

Elysian Brewing Company’s Space Dust IPA, straight out of Seattle, WA, is an excellent dry example of the style featuring bursts of Citra and Amarillo hops!   We will not have bottles of this beer for some time, so bring your growlers!

Also on tap will be Sixpoint Brewery’s brand new PUFF Double IPA.  This is a slightly stronger version of their Resin Double IPA that is hazy and unfiltered, as if it was poured right off the tank!  Double dry-hopping gives this beer an even more explosive hop aroma than normal Resin. These two are sure to excite any hophead, so be sure to get down to the store @ 5pm!!
