Visit the unique, distinct Charleston-Huntington Brewery Trail

ECLIPSE DAY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

We invite you to experience the remarkable, absolutely unequalled Charleston–Huntington Brewery Trail.  Our trail has the unique distinction of being  the sole ale trail in the nation with only one brewery.

We take the worry out of your vacation planning. You’ll never lose sleep or have anxious moments trying to decide which breweries to visit, even if you only have limited time here. So, come to Charleston–Huntington and visit our brewery.

Sure, you could choose to visit other cities where you can experience multiple craft breweries—but they’re a dime a dozen these days. Why waste your time and money Ubering among a bunch of different breweries, who all make pretty much the same styles of beer anyway, when you can get it all here in one convenient stop.

Our exciting metro region ranks in the top 14% of all  U.S. city metros for population. Hundreds of restaurants and bars line the streets of our towns. Our many industries, businesses, medical centers, and universities provide employment to thousands of happy people. Our one brewery ranks us first among the nation’s brewery trails with the fewest breweries. We think that’s a pretty cool distinction, don’t you?

Experience some #AlmostHeaven hospitality. Get out there and hit the Charleston–Huntington Brewery Trail.
