More Lowcountry Breweries Around Charleston, SC

4 breweries in Lowcountry

Charleston's brewery scene reaches well beyond the city and its main suburbs. Spread across the wider Lowcountry - from the beach to the outlying towns of Berkeley County - a handful of independent taprooms sit apart from the downtown and North Charleston clusters, and each one is worth a detour if you're willing to drive a little.

On Folly Beach, Revelry Brewing Co. runs a small satellite taproom on Center Street, a short walk from the sand and tucked down an alleyway. It's the beach outpost of Revelry's longtime Charleston brewery, built around an intimate courtyard with covered outdoor seating and a focused food menu.

On Daniel Island, New Realm Brewing Co. anchors a large taproom and restaurant on Island Park Drive. As the Charleston location of a multi-state brewery founded in 2016, it pairs a wood-fired scratch kitchen with house beers from a nationally known brewmaster. In the Cainhoy area nearby, Indigo Reef Brewing Co. pours in a quieter corner of the region, brewing everything on-site - including a 2025 World Beer Cup gold-medal stout - with an onsite food truck and a roomy, family-friendly courtyard.

Up in Goose Creek, Stones Throw Brewing serves its Berkeley County neighbors from a repurposed former fire station on Button Hall Avenue, with 20-plus house beers and a full sit-down kitchen.

Are these breweries far apart? Yes - they're scattered across the region rather than walkable from one another, so plan each as its own trip. Which are good for families? New Realm, Indigo Reef, and Stones Throw are all family-friendly, while the Revelry Folly Beach taproom is geared toward adults. Most offer outdoor seating, but only some welcome dogs, so check each listing below and confirm current hours and directions before you go.
