We would like to thank everyone who showed up to support the Sip of Daniel Island Water Missions International event last Wednesday!  The proceeds from the event will go to help provide clean water to countries in need.

Growler Hour Wednesday (3/10)
As we do every Wednesday at 5pm, we’ll be tapping something special on the growler station!  This week we will the be tapping a keg of The Bruery “Mischief”  From the website: “This wickedly good golden ale is fiendishly dry-hopped with American hops to add a layer of complexity and mystery to its fruity, dry Belgian-style character. Citrus and resin diabolically combine with ripe melon, pear and slight peppery spice in a precariously effervescent mixture. Enjoy it, but you’ll want to keep an eye out” Come get a growler of this delicious hoppy delight!  Don’t miss out, it’s sure to go fast!

Also, we will be tapping a Mystery Keg.  The mystery beer is $1 a pint.  If you can guess the beer style or the brewery, your pint is free!

March 4th kicks off the 5th year of the BB&T Charleston Food & Wine Festival!  Winemaker’s, chefs and hungry people from around the country come to Charleston to share and participate in a most memorable culinary experience.

With the tragic Haiti disaster on everyone’s minds, Daniel Island resident Angela Black Drake is hoping that people will come to the first Sip of Daniel Island to benefit Water Missions International (WMI), a Christian-based organization that provides clean drinking water to people in developing countries and disaster areas.

In conjunction with The Rotary Club of Daniel Island and the Charleston Rotary Lunch Club, nine Daniel Island restaurants will be providing drink and/or appetizer specials. A $20 ticket will entitle the ticket-holder to enjoy the specials in each restaurant from 5-8 p.m., Wednesday, March 3.

The proceeds from the event will benefit two WMI projects: support for the Rotary Club’s clean water project in Iquitos, Peru and for disaster relief work in Haiti.

Participating Restaurants include: Laura Alberts Tasteful Options, Dragon Palace, Wasabi, Vespa, Two Rivers, et cetera, Daniel Island Grille, Brewer’s Bistro, & Queen Anne’s Revenge.
