    Visiting myrtle beach this upcoming weekend. Any recommendations on breweries, restaurants or bottle shops? Thanks!

    I'm heading down in July. Lots of reviews on here for Byrd's Beer at the Pig, but it seems that place is closed. I'll be staying in North Myrtle, and was really hoping to find Westbrook Gose and Key Lime Pie Gose. Looks like the best option I can find is Pavilion Discount Beverage.

    Not too far away and just over the SC/NC border is Coastal Craft Beverage Co. They keep their tap/bottle/can list updated on their site, Untappd and they are active on social media on new drops they get. That would be a good place to check out to if you can't find it closer.

    They do have a great selection. Just need to be able to convince the wife to spend an hour+ driving there and back from where we are staying.

    Stop at a Lowes Foods. Great selection for a grocery store, they should have the Westbrooks you’re looking for, and they always have good stuff on draft for $5 a pour.

    I’m familiar with the previous threads and spots mentioned in this thread but am looking for anything new that has opened since May 2022 (if there are any).

    I’ll be staying close to the Dolly Parton Pirate’s Voyage, so closer to that area is even better. Family friendly restaurants with good tap lists would be super helpful (preferably not national chain restaurants).

    I normally hit up the Lowe’s Foods Carolina Forest to pick up some stuff for the room. I’ve also managed to hit all of the local breweries with the exception of Independent Republic Brewing Co. which I will try to hit this trip.

    Bonus question: Any place with good tap lists in Calabash, NC for us to have dinner at on the way down? Any recommended bottle shops near those restaurants?

    Was Southern Hops Brewing open last time you were here? It's down in Murrell's Inlet, but a day trip to Marsh Walk is a nice change of pace.

    Atlas Tap House in Myrtle has a solid, big draft list for the area

    Apparantly not, thanks for the suggestion.

    Piggybacking this thread…going down there a week from Saturday, any store I can buy good enough beer from or any decent breweries in Myrtle Beach proper? I’ll check out the threads listed above and see if that store at the border is convenient enough for the wife.

    Decent selection at the Lowe’s Foods Carolina Forest as of about a month ago as well as drafts (and growler fills).

    Many Lowe's keep their tap / package list updated on Untappd and this one seems regularly updated as well. Not too shabby.
    - Draft
    - Package

    Thanks to you and @dbrauneis thats where I’m going. I’m hoping to hit Tonewood in Jersey off I-95 on the way down and I’m bringing a case of my own beer too so I’m hoping I don’t need much. Definitely getting a bottle of Wray & Nephew for the rental house to mix some drinks.

    The Piggly Wiggly in Surfside, (just south of Myrtle) has a nice selection, especially Belgian & German beers.
    Enjoy your trip!
