Southern Hops Brewing Co. in Florence, South Carolina, marries Southern hospitality with a genuine love of craft brewing. The taproom feels more like a well‑kept kitchen than a pretentious bar, and the moment you step inside you’re greeted by the smell of freshly malted grain and something that could only be described as home‑cooked confidence.
The beer list turns the usual “one‑size‑fits‑all” approach on its head, offering a rotating roster that includes the razor‑crisp Pops Pilsner and the velvety, midnight‑blue Blackwater Porter. Each brew is handcrafted with locally sourced ingredients, so you can taste the region in every sip. The food menu mirrors that ethos: think stone‑baked pizza with a Southern twist, hearty biscuits, and comfort‑food classics that make you wonder why anyone would ever eat anything else (the owners, who apparently never met a hop they didn’t like, insist on using only the best regional produce).
Service is a pleasant surprise—owners and bartenders mingle with patrons, sharing the story behind each pint with the enthusiasm of someone who knows their yeast. The taproom itself is clean, modern, and deliberately uncluttered, allowing the beer and the food to take centre stage. Whether you’re a seasoned hop head or just looking for a relaxed spot to enjoy a good brew, Southern Hops delivers quality, variety, and a genuine sense of community in every glass.
Southern Hops Brewing Co. offers excellent beer selection and quality food options, with friendly staff providing great service in a modern and inviting taproom setting. Beers are highly praised, including unique styles like Beach Peach Wheat Ale and Green Strings Märzen.
