Top 9 Breweries in Charleston, South Carolina (SC)
Historic Charleston is bursting with Southern charm and hospitality. The city feels a bit like it’s suspended in time, thanks to its antebellum architecture and surrounding plantation landscapes. Take in incredible views of the Battery and the French Quarter as you stroll the Waterfront Park, then become inspired by the cultivated beauty of the gardens at Middleton Place. At night, try a ghost tour for an introduction to the spooky side of the city.

We checked to see what breweries are in Charleston and then checked their beer ratings on untapped. After seeing their high ratings we knew we had to visit. We met Adam the brew-master and were blown away by his quality of beers. We spent more time there than we had planned but the beers were so good we had to try more and different ones. We also purchased cans and crowlers to go which we traveled home with. If you are a craft beer lover you MUST visit Charles Towne Fermentory. Do not miss them!!!

If you enjoy craft beer, make sure to visit Westbrook Brewing Co. they are located a short drive from Charleston International Airport. They are only open on Sat. from noon to 6pm. David our bartender was excellent ! He made some great suggestions on what beers to try in a flight and which bottles to buy to take home. Very nice big taproom, good selection of beer styles, and large outdoor patio. As a bonus while in this part of town, there are 2 other smaller breweries,Two Blokes Brewing open Sat. noon to 10pm and Ghost Monkey Brewery open Sat. 11am to 10pm that are within a mile of Westbrook Brewing.

We came to Charleston to check out some breweries. I’d never heard of this one but it was our first stop. I’m so glad we came here! The selection of beers was great. We did two flights and it was so hard to choose. We really enjoyed all the beers we tried. Plus the outdoor seating area was spacious. Love having an outdoor option especially during Covid. The staff/owners were super nice. They thought I’d left my sunglasses and found us at our next brew stop just to see if they were mine. That’s above and beyond! Will definitely be back next time we are in town.
4. Revelry Brewing

Reviewed By 492RyanB - Atlanta, United States
While in town for the weekend doing a brewery tour on our own we were told by many people that the rooftop bar of Revelry was a must-see and we were so glad we went. It’s only about 10-15 minutes in Uber from the Waterfront area and seems a little bit in the middle of nowhere, but it was easy enough with Uber/Lyft. We were glad to see they took social distancing seriously here with stool and table spacing as well as lots of hand sanitizer. Down stairs is a nice little area with the main bar and lots of table seating, but the best part is the rooftop bar up about 3 flights of stairs. The view is pretty incredible up there and the breeze keeps you cool. The gents working the bar were great to talk to and really knew their beer. We are big IPA fans and their Lefty Loosey West Coast IPA is outstanding. Also if you need a break from the high gravity crowd they have an excellent Kolsch as well. They had some interesting food items on the menu too, but we didn’t have time to try them. It was perfect timing for us being there on the 4th of July as we were able to see the F16’s do a fly over of CHS from their rooftop deck – we had a great time and highly recommend them.

Five stars across the board for this excellent brewery and foodery. Sampled about 15 different pours and all received thumbs up votes from our group. All had great taste. Surprisingly, the food offerings were just as good. Some of the best wings anywhere. Baked just perfectly in a pizza oven. The largest slice of pizza anywhere. The calzone was also excellent. The dough here is made with beer and has a terrific flavor. We certainly looking forward to our next visit. The service was great and we enjoyed all the assistance from Mike, one of the owners. Top notch customer service. Highly recommend this place for a fun time.
