Carolina Bauernhaus announces second location in Greenville

Carolina Bauernhaus Poe West

Anderson, South Carolina based Carolina Bauernhaus is building a second location this year, in nearby metro area of Greenville.

Mixed used developments have become a big draw for breweries looking to build second locations. Crooked Stave chose The Exchange in Denver for their second taproom. Atlanta’s Scofflaw Brewing is building a second facility in The Works on the Westside of the city. Atlanta City Winery did the same thing in Ponce City Market. These mixed-use developments draw big crowds looking for a plethora of food, drinks and fun activities, and typically lead to an influx of apartment, condo, and hotel build nearby. The days of building production facilities in heavy industrial complexes are slowly dying.

Carolina Bauernhaus, an all-oak, wild ale brewery, winery, and cidery has selected Poe West, a 60,000 square foot mixed-use development in The West Village of Greenville for their second build. Bauernhaus has 3,000 square feet of the new space for their beer garden, outdoor and entertainment space.

The 5.8 acre $10 million dollar build breaks ground this month and is expected to open in Fall 2019.

Carolina Bauernhaus plans to bottle their spicy ‘Walhallapeno”

Carolina Bauernhaus Walhallapeno

Anderson, South Carolina’s Carolina Bauernhaus is planning on bottling their spicy Walhallapeno beer. A collaboration with Frothy Beard Brewing.

If you are a fan of heat, you’ll find it here. Jalapeños bring the burn, rounded out by a touch of tartness by the base beer which is a gose. This beer has been frequently found in the taproom and has a loyal following. As we understand it, one of the founders of Frothy Beard hails from Wahalla, South Carolina. Thus, the derivation of the Walhallapeno name.

Salty! Sour! Spicy! Walhallapeno is our delightfully refreshing collaboration with our friend at Frothy Beard Brewing in Charleston, SC. The bright spicy flavor of locally grown jalapeño peppers are a delicious complement to our salty and sour Gose. This rustic refined flavored ale was oak fermented with our house blend of native yeast and soured with locally sourced lactobacillus from SouthYeast Labs.

Carolina Bauernhaus Walhallapeno is slated for 22 ounce bottles, and already available on draft.

Style: Gose (w/ Jalapeno Peppers)

Dry hopped sour: Carolina Bauernhaus Kuningilin

Carolina Bauernhaus Kuningilin

Carolina Bauernhaus Kuningilin debuts on June 24th.

Nearby Asheville, North Carolina Riverbend Malt House and their Wrens Abruzzi Rye Malt serves at the base inspiration for this new release. Head brewery and co-founder Keston Helfrich oak soured a golden ale, then dry-hopped it with Vic Secret and Amarillo hops.

RELATED: Carolina Bauernhaus & the sweetest watermelons

The wren, not only the name of the malt, but pictured on the label, is “king of the birds” according to German legend. It is said it got that title by hitching a ride on the back of an eagle in order to become the highest flying bird in the world.

The spicy and earthy character of the rye malt used in this rustic refined ale is held aloft by a tart acidity drawn from our house strain of natively collected lactobacillus and crowned by a bright dry hop blend of Vic Secret and Amarillo hops.

Carolina Bauernhaus Kuningilin will be available in 750 milliliter bottles when the brewery opens on June 24th.

Style: American Wild Ale
