Lowcountry beer and music lovers will be able to celebrate with more than 60 breweries at this year’s Charleston Beer Fest being held on September 9th at Riverfront Park in North Charleston. The amount of breweries scheduled to appear make this the largest Beer Fest event ever.
The festival allows attendees to sample local favorites, including IPAs, reds, ales, stouts, sours, ciders, and styles from around North and South Carolina, Georgia, and beyond. Charleston Beer Fest will run from 1 pm to 7 pm. You can see the full list of breweries here: https://www.chsbeerfest.org/breweries.
“We couldn't be prouder of this list of amazing craft breweries! Not only do these breweries make great beer, but each of them is generously supporting our community and the work we do daily,” said Richard Reams, director of Development and Marketing for Palmetto Community Care, which is the event’s beneficiary. “We have our best mix yet of returning favorites as well as new breweries, so everyone is sure to find one of their favorite beers and keep adding to their list with new ones. We are so pleased to showcase the regional craft beer community at Charleston Beer Fest.”
Proceeds from Charleston Beer Fest benefit Palmetto Community Care in its work providing complete, compassionate HIV care and prevention education awareness across the tri-county area. Parking for the event will be free. The event is strictly for ages 21 and over only.
