Anderson On Tap Returns

Carolina Beer Company, Inc. and GAMAC will present the third annual Anderson On Tap, a beer tasting, on Tuesday, May 21, 2013 at 7:00pm at The Bleckley Inn in downtown Anderson, South Carolina. Featuring 20+ craft beers and ciders by Thomas Creek, RJ Rockers, Sam Adams, Highland Brewing, Sweetwater, Abita, Terrapin and more, the event promises great food, music and beer with all proceeds benefiting GAMAC.

Anderson On Tap attendees can look forward to great food from some of the best restaurants in Anderson. Selections from City Grill & Pizzeria, Doolittle’s Restaurant, Mellow Mushroom, Sullivan’s Metropolitan Grill, Thai Spice & Sushi, The Pompous Pig, The Sweetery, Tucker’s and Viva! Il Vino will be available with suggested beer pairings. Iced tea, sweetened and unsweetened, will be available for designated drivers and non-beer drinkers. And, of course, no beer tasting is complete without pretzels and peanuts!

A highlight of the evening will be performances by traditional Irish and Celtic folk ensemble, Emerald Road. Founded in 2006 by sisters Robin Rash Davis and Kristin Rash Miesbauer with folk musician Luke Brodine, Emerald Road’s sound is joyful and eclectic. The band is regularly featured at McGee’s Irish Pub & Restaurant in downtown Anderson and at venues throughout the upstate. They’ve also released two albums.

Beer tasting is an interesting and fun way to try new beers. Similar to wine tasting, many beers pair well with a wide variety of foods. With so many craft beers available from local, regional and national breweries there are varieties to suit any taste!
