The Loutrel today announced that its rooftop pumpkin patch, designed in collaboration with James Island’s Dreaming Farms, will return to the downtown property and open to the public starting Oct. 18 from 5 to 8 p.m.
Locals and hotel guests are invited to visit the rooftop to soak in the gourd-eous sunset views of the city while enjoying seasonal sips from The Loutrel’s Pumpkin Patch Potions menu. Guests who purchase a cocktail, cider or beer from the menu will receive a complimentary pumpkin to take home as a fall souvenir.
During the kickoff event, visitors can meet the dreamers behind Dreaming Farms and enjoy complimentary spirit tastings from local distillery Beyond Distilling Co., including samples of its newly released, limited-edition rye whiskey.
The Loutrel’s Pumpkin Patch Potions menu features three signature drinks, each paired with a complimentary pumpkin:
- The White Pumpkin – A seasonal cocktail with Beyond Rye, Kahlua and scratch-made pumpkin spice creamer ($16)
- Savannah River Uncle Festbier – An Oktoberfest lager with Tradition hops and notes of caramel ($8)
- Blake’s Black Phillip Hard Cider – A cider with flavors of blood orange and cranberry ($8)
Pumpkins are also available for individual purchase for $12 each.
Following the kickoff event, The Loutrel’s rooftop pumpkin patch will be open to the public daily from noon to 8 p.m. through Nov. 1. Visitors should stop by the Veranda Lounge in the hotel lobby to gain rooftop access and purchase drinks. Guests must be 21 or older to purchase alcohol.
