Recently, a fellow Yelp Elite (Sarah B.) and I met up for a beer at Low Tide.
I've been here in the past, but not since the COVID-19 pandemic started- and I was satisfied with the safety precautions. Masks were required when standing (not seated/drinking), and the brewery has plenty of space to spread out and drink outdoors. I was glad to see a large covered area so we weren't sitting in the hot sun. Low Tide has indoor seating, but since it was a beautiful day, we opted for outside.
The beer I had was called Salt of the South. It's an imperial fruited gose that features sea salt with a tangy tart ale, tangerine peel and purée, plus agave for a refreshing balance. It has a 9% ABV, so one pint was enough for me, but that one pint was enjoyable.
Along with my beer, I eyed some of the merchandise inside and was impressed. Most breweries sell t-shirt and glasses, but I loved that Low Tide has candles, hats, and even long-sleeved tech shirts. The t-shirt designs are cool, and they offer women's cut in several styles.
Low Tide doesn't have a kitchen, but food trucks visit. Both times I've been, Rebel Taqueria was the food truck. If there's no truck, the area has plenty of great restaurants. You may need some food to soak up your beer.
All in all, both of my visits to Low Tide were wonderful, and it's not far from my home. If you're on your way to Kiawah/Seabrook or on Johns Island, don't miss Low Tide!
