COAST HopArt Cask, Monday 23rd @ Gene’s
June 19, 2008
We’ll be doing our 2nd cask this Monday at Gene’s Haufbrau in West Ashley. HopArt IPA dry-hopped with Summit and Glacier hops and conditoned in cask for 4 weeks.
Tapped at 6pm. Oh yeah.
COAST HopArt on Cask tonight! May 24, Saturday
May 24, 2008
Come on out tonight and try some HopArt on Cask. We took the IPA, put it on oak chips and hops, and fermented for 4 weeks!
EVO Pizzeria- Park Circle
Tapped at 5 until it runs out.
Our first cask ever and the first in Charleston. Nice.

Have a beer for us tonight- No Hops for us.
March 24, 2008
Well, we didn’t get any of the hops that Samuel Adams was sharing. They had so many requests that they had to hold a lottery and poor little COAST didn’t get any. No English bitter for us I guess. Unless somebody has some extra just laying around???
Jim Koch is still cool in my book though!
Bombers!!
March 18, 2008
Yup, we did it! We finally bottled some COAST, albeit not very much. HopArt IPA and Blackbeerd Imperial Stout are hitting Ted’s Butcher Block tomorrow- though I think he is holding them for a release on Saturday given the demand. Whole Foods will be getting some in the next little while and probably a smaller bit at Wine A While as well. I ‘ll update when I know for sure.
By the way, we busted out that 5 month conditioning Chocolate Rye Brown. It is still VERY good, but not superb so we won’t be officially selling that, but you might get a taste here and there just for kicks.
Another word on our bottles. We suggest drinking the HopArt fresh (not cellaring). The Blackbeerd, we *think* can be cellared for a while but since this is our first bottling run, we can’t say for sure. We’re doing all kinds of experiments at the brewery to try to determine shelf life and all that.

Scotch Ale Release at Mellow Mushroom, 3/4

Labels Approved!!
February 13, 2008
Just moments ago….. we finally got label approval for 3 of our beers! This was such a long and arduous process (not to mention a learning curve), I am glad it’s done. For now anyway, until we brew more styles, which come to think of it we already have. So I guess I will be doing this again in the near future. For now, Cheers to HopArt IPA, Blackbeerd Imperial Stout and Rye Not Brown! (No Kolsch for now until we decide if 22 oz. would work for it).
