Birds Fly South Ale Project: Treat Your Taste Buds to Award-Winning Wild Beers at This Dog-Friendly Brewery

Location: 1320 Hampton Ave, Greenville, SC 29601

When it comes to enjoying a cold brew, few things beat kicking back with man's best friend. And at Birds Fly South Ale Project, you can do just that. Founded by Shawn and Lindsay Johnson, this Greenville-based brewery has been bringing a unique selection of wild, funky, and throwback style ales to the community for over four years.

But Birds Fly South is more than just a craft brewery; it's a place where friends, families, and even furry companions can come together to enjoy good beer, good company, and a good time. That's why this dog-friendly brewery is a must-visit for anyone looking to spend some quality time with their four-legged friend.

The story of Birds Fly South Ale Project starts with Shawn and Lindsay's love for beer, which they developed during their travels across the US as part of Shawn's aviation career in the coast guard. After getting into home-brewing, the couple decided to focus on wild and funky beer, which they noticed was lacking in the Greenville area. They began renting space from another local brewery and quickly gained a following, thanks to their unique approach to brewing.

But it wasn't until they found their permanent home at 1320 Hampton that Birds Fly South really took flight. The brewery's sign was hung just one hour before their grand opening, and the line wrapped around the block to greet them. Since then, Birds Fly South has become a staple in the Greenville beer scene, producing over 3,500 barrels of beer across five different states and earning over 20 accolades and awards.

So what makes Birds Fly South's beer so special? For starters, their focus on wild and bottle conditioned beers sets them apart from other breweries in the area. They've also won awards for a variety of styles, from their Rhubarb Gose to their C'mon Sunshine Brett Beer. And with their unique logo, featuring a swallow bird symbolizing good luck and land nearby, Birds Fly South has created a brand that truly stands out.

But beyond the beer, Birds Fly South is a place where everyone feels welcome, including dogs. You'll often find furry friends lounging on the patio while their owners enjoy a cold brew or two.
