Beer Gardens in Florence, SC

“Some of the best beers are served up at this brewery. It was at a convenient location for us to stop at mid-day. We appreciated the early opening time. We walked in and found a taproom/restaurant that was very clean and well maintained. The decor was modern and inviting. Danny greeted us at the door and he couldn't have been nicer. He was our bartender too and was very accommodating to our tastes. There was a really great selection of different styles of beer and we picked what we wanted for a flight and took up Danny's suggestions for the next one. All the beers were very good or better. The most amazing ones were the Beach Peach Wheat Ale and Green Strings Märzen. We also met the owner who delighted us with the story of the brewery itself and informative facts about craft beer in SC. Between the bartender, Danny, and the owner, the folks at Southern Hops were warm and friendly and made us feel welcome. We came to try the beer and didn't try the food. Maybe next time we will come for a meal too. We would like to visit again soon and try more of the great tasting brews.

Parking: Dirt/Gravel parking lot has plenty of room. Right off US-76 and not far from I-95.“

“Couple of truly great people trying to make a difference for the lives of those in need. I urge you to look at what these folks are doing and find it in your hearts to pay the kindness forward! After all, no matter the number of legs or thumbs, we could each find ourselves in dire situations needing a hand... help of you can!“
