Highland Resources has reopened public access to the structure long known locally as Charleston’s “Bridge to Nowhere” at Magnolia Landing, and Edmund’s Oast Brewery is celebrating the occasion with a limited-edition beer called “The Bridge to Somewhere.”
The beer, released Nov. 4 at the brewery’s 1505 King St. taproom, is a small-batch collaboration available on tap and in cans while supplies last, with a portion of pint sales through Nov. 11 benefiting Charleston Waterkeepers.
Crafting Beer with Local Southern Ingredients
Cameron Read and Timmons Pettigrew, the co-owners of Edmund’s Oast, said the collaboration came to them naturally as a neighborhood brewery by the bridge and Magnolia Landing. The name, they said, was all Highland Resources, but the drink is their own concoction. “Like so many beers, it’s easy drinking, golden and light,” Read, who also serves as the brewing director, described. He added that he and Pettigrew, the operations director, enjoy celebrating with local and Southern ingredients whenever they can, and that the Bridge to Somewhere is made with all southern-grown malts from Epiphany Craft Malt out of Durham, N.C.
Supporting Community Through Sales and Renovations
Highland Resources views the reopening as part of a broader commitment to the area. “For Highland, public access is central to our vision for Magnolia Landing, and the planned parks, waterfront paths and gathering spaces are intended for the broader community to enjoy,” Hall said. The brewery’s batch totals about 40 cases and 15 kegs for the entire state, and Read noted the taproom at 1505 King St. has been renovated with new seating, trees for shade and AstroTurf. Between Nov. 4 and Nov. 11, a portion of all pints sold there will benefit Charleston Waterkeepers, a nonprofit incorporated in 2009 that protects, promotes and restores the water quality of the Charleston Harbor Watershed.
“We wanted to bring people together through a local partnership that felt authentic and approachable,” Hall said.
