Foothills Brewing Co. debuts in Chucktown this weekend

Posted by Stephanie Barna on Fri, Feb 27, 2009 at 3:16 PM

The Charleston market is getting another hand-crafted beer. Foothills Brewing Company in Winston-Salem, N.C. will be sold in local bars and at the Charleston Beer Exchange, but not until mid-March.

To get your tastebuds ready, the Foothill guys will be in town this weekend for a couple of events to celebrate their debut. Tonight, at 5 p.m., they'll be at the Beer Exchange, which will feature Foothills' brews on all of their taps.

According to Scott at the Beer Exchange, it'll include Pilot Mountain Pale Ale, Torch Pilsner, Hoppium IPA, People's Porter, Seeing Double IPA, "and maybe a couple of other special surprises."

Get your growlers and go.

On Saturday night, they'll be at the Mellow Mushroom downtown, letting diners and Beer Club members get a taste of five different brews.

Brewmaster Jamie Bartholomaus, who believes drinking fresh beer is one of the great pleasures in life (and we don't disagree), will be on hand at both places to talk about his brewery and hand out some giveaways.

This will be the only taste you'll get of Foothills until mid-March, when the product will hit Charleston's markets permanently.

The real conservative is Fred Thompson, who has a 100 percent pro-life voting record in the Senate. One wonders what Mr. Robertson and Senator Brownback were promised in exchange for their respective endorsements of other more liberal candidates.

I think a lot of people are reading through the lines on this "endorsement." You make a great point in that true Christians and people of faith will not simply accept the word of Mr. Robertson to guide their election ballot. Mr. Giuliani has a horrible track record of being very pro-choice, and not to mention his personal histories. I think this election is only starting to heat up, and people are not buying this cookie cutter "he said I should vote Giuliani, so I will." The Internet is changing the game, and it will be real interesting to see the outcome. Check out this study recently done on the impact it is having for 2008: http://www.spartaninternet.com/2008
