With the over 7,000 brewery locations just in the United States alone according to USA Today’s The year in beer: Cheers, there’s more than 7,000 breweries operating in the US ; the craft scene is exploding with locations and creativity.

Steel Hands Brewing: Cayce SC
Located in the most perfect venue in Cayce SC, this brewery is growing in size and popularity. The taproom encompasses a “factor like” feel and its given name sake “Steel Hands” has the foundation of the working man at heart. Try their Tropical IPA or my personal favorite Punch Clock Pilsner at their astonishing establishment, which will not disappoint. They often have live music and provide a pet friendly outdoor dining and drinking area. Click the link above for more details and directions, and they have brunch on Sunday!
