Owner Dave Benfield said that the brewery should be producing beer by mid-March, and be open to the general public sometime this summer.

Brian Strumke, of Stillwater Artisanal Ales was representing Baltimore at the festival—pouring a saison called Kopstootje, an American amber/red ale called Holland Oats brewed at Bierbrouwerij Emelisse in the Netherlands, and a collaboration with Baltimore’s Brewer’s Art called Debutante. You could also find some fine Baltimorean beer represented at local Charleston …
