Re: “Palmetto Brewing doubles output with new tanks

localhutch, if you're content battering your tastebuds with domestic swill, continue to do so. People that value the taste of their beer are willing to pay more for it. It's that simple.

Re: “Palmetto Brewing doubles output with new tanks

I know it is expensive to brew smaller lots of beer. And "craft" beer takes a bit more time. But I was charged $12.00 the other day for two local beers. Domestics at the same bar were only $2.50. I am beginning to think that in these days of limited spending money, it is just too expensive to indulge in anything other than domestics, inasmuch as the beer was twice as expensive as as the food! With tip and tax, those two beers actually cost around $14.00. Sorry, I just don't think it is worth it. How about someone who is more knowledgeable about this stuff educating me.

Re: “COAST needs help kicking it up a notch too

All you free marketeers seem to be unable to realize that individual giving and fundraising are also free market practices. If people want to give, they will, if not they won't. And it's really none of your business either way. Why do you have a problem with that?

Re: “COAST needs help kicking it up a notch too

I am proud to support Coast. They have done more for the Charleston beer community than anybody else, and a whole ton of other people make profit thanks to the legislation they were instrumental in pushing. This helps them out, and I'll get a little swag for my "micro-investment". If you guys don't want to give money, don't. Why do so many people on this site feel the need to be insufferable jerks and experts at everything?

Re: “COAST needs help kicking it up a notch too

What is this new trend of businesses begging for money? I didn't go to business school, but I believe the equation goes: you provide me a service/product. In exchange I give you a predetermined amount of money. Not, you ask for money, and I give it. This isn't NPR.

Re: “COAST needs help kicking it up a notch too

Why would anyone contribute to a brewery making seven barrels of lousy tasting beer so they can begin making thirty barrels of lousy tasting beer? The end result is just going to be a lot more lousy tasting beer.

Sorry - but I only GIVE AWAY money to CHARITIES, not for-profit businesses...

Most businesses that cannot afford expansion costs either GET A LOAN or SEEK INVESTORS!

Re: “Bombay will torment you with its tyranny of great choices

I have already tasted in Bombay Indian Restaurant but it even not reach half of the food quality of Taste of India or Nirleep. So for next time I will not go again to this Bombay Indian Restaurant.

Re: “Sampling Firefly's latest libation, moonshine

The one above is odd...are there animals at the Best Of Charleston event, the Firefly Distillery, or both?
