#Repost @womeninventedbeer i wrote and brewed my first beer recipe 🧙♀️ a few months ago I asked my friend Steve if I could brew with him. i wanted to know that I still could. after he said yes he looked me in the eye and asked “do you want to write the recipe?” no cap, no laugh. It both saddens me, and pleases me to say that this was the most I have felt respected or taken serious from a man in the Charleston beer industry. I worked very hard not only writing the recipe with Steve, but also brewing this beer. I was extremely close to quitting the industry, and being a part of a brew day again made me realize why I loved beer in the first place. It’s no secret that I’ve had a hard time lately, and have not felt support from most the local beer community. I’ve lost a job I loved, and to be honest brewing this beer has been one of the only things keeping me sane. writing and brewing my own beer recipe commercially is a dream of mine, and something I’m extremely proud of. join me next Tuesday, June 7 for the release of my VERY FIRST BEER in collaboration with @fattysbeerworks it’s, of course, a schwarzbier (dark lager) named Bad Blood 🩸 and we will be celebrating appropriately with a Taylor Swift Karaoke/Sing Along Dance Party 🐍 🍕 food by my babes @firstnamebasisco hope to see as many as you there as possible :) Thank you Steve, and thank you David & Fatty’s - not only for allowing me this opportunity, but for always believing in me and supporting me. #babynowwegotbadblood #charlestonbeer #scbeer #chsbeer #charlestonlife #bravenoise #womeninbeer #femalebrewers #beerlady #womeninbusiness #womeninbrewing #charlestondrinks #chsdrinks #womenbrewtoo #charlestonbrewerydistrict #fattysbeerworks #beerisforeveryone #beerselfie #witchesbrew #badblood https://www.instagram.com/p/CePWtYkvrp5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
