Holy City/Total Wine collaboration DIPA arrives Friday
Total Wine & More is celebrating 10 years of service in the Charleston area this week, and for the occasion, one of the city’s most collaboration-friendly breweries teamed up with the store for a special imperial IPA being released this week.
More details on the Quest/Terrapin collaboration
Last week, Greenville’s Quest and Athens, GA’s Terrapin teamed up to brew a special collaboration beer in honor of the upcoming inaugural Greenville Craft Beer Week. On Tuesday, more details about said brew were released.
Quest, Terrapin collaboration coming in April
If you’ve ever talked with Quest‘s Don Richardson, you know he’s got quite the number of brewing notches on his belt. During the past couple of decades, he’s honed his skills at a number of breweries across the country, including Athens, GA’s Terrapin. Some of the equipment currently used by Quest even came from Terrapin. So it should come as no surprise that the two breweries would collaborate on a beer eventually.
Community Tap/Thomas Creek collaboration arrives in bottles
Formerly a draft-only release, Trifecta IPA, collaboration from The Community Tap and Thomas Creek, arrives in bottles for the first time today.
Thomas Creek has previously brewed the 6.9% IPA as a TCT draft exclusive, but now it’ll be available throughout the Greenville area with the chance of it popping up in other SC markets. TCT will be having a day-long “party” celebrating the release.
Holy City collaborates with SC, NC, GA breweries for Brewvival
If you’ve been following Brewvival’s Twitter account (and if you’re not, you really should), you’ve noticed they’ve slowly been releasing the beers and breweries that will be appearing at the festival. And there was quite an announcement Wednesday afternoon: Of the five beers Holy City will have on hand, four will be collaborations with regional breweries.
In addition to a Jack Daniels barrel-aged version of their Manuel Fantastico barleywine, HCB will also be offering the following:
- Holy Weed, an imperial IPA brewed in collaboration with Wicked Weed out of Asheville, NC. It’ll include green tea from the Charleston Tea Plantation.
- Sister City Saison, a farmhouse ale brewed in collaboration with Savannah’s Southbound Brewing Co. This one’s an imperial saison brewed with rose hips.
- Half Calf, brewed with Spartanburg’s RJ Rockers. It’s a coffee milk stout that includes coffee from Coastal Coffee Roasters in Summerville.
- Shades of Grace, a blend of HCB’s Graveyard Shiftee and NoDa of Charlotte’s Imperial Coco Loco. So, a massive imperial porter.
Brewvival will be held Saturday, February 22, at the field across from COAST. It will sell out.
Conquest, radio station team up to preview WBF brew
You’ll recall a couple of weeks ago, Conquest and representatives from All About Beer Magazine got together to brew a beer that will debut at the upcoming World Beer Festival in Columbia on January 18. Now that the festival is a little more than a week away and the beer is just about ready, they’re asking drinkers to help put the finishing touches on the brew.
Thursday evening, WXRY-FM – which will be broadcasting live – and Conquest will give patrons at Columbia’s World of Beer a chance to sample the English-style porter before its wide debut at the festival. On top of that, they’ll have the chance to pick which additional flavors will go into the final release. That finished product will then be widely available at the World Beer Festival the following weekend.
Conquest made its SC debut at the 2013 WBF and will be celebrating its first anniversary on January 25 with the release of The Finisher imperial stout.
