Join us Wednesday for a very special growler hour with Charleston’s newest commercial craft brewery, Holy City Brewing!  3 of the 4 founders will be on hand to talk HCB!  Glassware and free beer swag will be available while supplies last!

On tap we’ll be featuring a variety of their new local lineup – the following are beer notes from their website:

-Holy City Pilsner – A German style Pilsner, dry and crisp with a nice hop aroma, coming in at 45 IBU’s and 5.0% abv

-Fish Bowl Ale I – The first of our experimental test batches. Our Fish Bowl series of beers will be loosely brewed around pale ales and IPA’s. Not sticking to a style will give us an opportunity to try some things out and have a little fun with our new system. Fish Bowl Ale I will be a 6% abv 70 IBU all Summit hopped ale .

-Fish Bowl Ale II - Its a big hoppy red ale that we hopped with Warriors and Glaciers, coming in at 7.5% abv

-Pluff Mud Porter- An easy drinking 5.5% abv Porter, roasted malts and german carafa give it its color and body, 21 IBU’s

Join us Thursday, August 18th for an evening with French Broad brewery!  After entering the South Carolina in late 2010, French Broad has been exponentially grown in popularity.  With off-the-wall fusion brews like Rye Hopper, a hoppy rye brew that uses the rounded maltiness and a sharp earthy flavor of malted rye to bridge the maltiness of the barley and the bitterness of the hops, French Broad pushes the boundaries of craft beer beyond hops, water, barley and yeast.

This 4-course/5-beer dinner will be hosted by Andy Dahl from the brewery.  Andy will walk us through French Broad’s wholesome brew lineup while Executive Chef Matt Brigham pairs a Low Country style dish to compliment each brew.   If you love kolsch, hops, rich scotch ales, or creamy porters, you won’t want to miss this dinner.

Disclaimer: We are beer geeks.  We love our beer around 50 degrees and in the right glassware for most of the year.  We do get a bit crazy in the month of July, though – when start to accessorize our brews.  We know some rules shouldn’t be broken, but don’t knock it ’til you try it!

Summertime is all about refreshing!  Summer seasonal craft brews are watery, light and refreshing – so we’ve dressed some of our craft beers in their summertime skivvies – check out the new Brewcation Drink Menu – for a limited time only.

We are very excited to be tapping a keg of COAST Boy King Double IPA!  We were lucky enough to get a keg of this highly sought after local brew.  According to the description on COAST Brewing’s website, the Boy King is “highly hopped, yet balanced” and is brewed with “6 hop varietals” including a hefty load of citra hops (pictured above) rendering it “extremely tropical” with hints of “melon and peach“.  Sounds like the recipe for paradise to my hophead ears, but your tastebuds will have to decide for themselves.  Like all hoppy beers, the Boy King is best when fresh!  (A great reason to pour another pint!)  So hop over here to Laura Alberts and get your drink on and your snack on!   Once it’s gone, it’s gone!

No, we’re not talking about immigrants. We’re talking about IMPORTED BEER!!!  Before Prohibition there were over 4,000 breweries in the United States!  Now there are over 2500 and the number keeps growing everyday.  We here at Laura Alberts have decided to toss in the towel to the old Foreign Import Beer we used to rely on to fill the void.  We now have our sights on specializing in American Craft Brew!  So come out and help us export these foreign goods!

Check out the list of Foreign Beer we have discounted! We have pre-priced variety 4-packs available with a grand selection of Stouts, IPA’s, ESB’s, Witbiers, Doppelbock’s and more from some amazing foreign breweries like De Struise, Batemans, Dupont, De Proef, Bosteels, and the list goes on!  Now through August you can stop by and pick up a pre-priced variety 4-pack, single bottle, or tote away a case of your favorite foreign imports at 30-75% off the regular price!
