This limited flagship production, brewed only once a year, has earned a place in the hearts of beer enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike. Director of Brewing Operations, Brad O’Connor, expressed his excitement about the upcoming release, stating, “We will be releasing our Gold Medal Winning Springs Farm Strawberry Kolsch on Saturday, June 8th. This is a limited flagship production which we brew only one time per year. When it’s gone… it’s gone until next year.”
The Springs Farm Strawberry Kolsch is a testament to the quality of local ingredients and expert brewing techniques. The strawberries used in this exceptional brew are grown locally at the Anne Springs Close Greenway, adding a unique freshness and community pride to each batch.
This delightful brew has not only won the hearts of locals but has also garnered significant accolades in the competitive beer industry. The U.S. Open Beer Championship, one of the largest beer competitions in the world with more than 9,000 beers entered by 3,107 brewers, has recognized the Springs Farm Strawberry Kolsch with multiple prestigious awards. In 2021, it received a Gold Medal in the American Style Berry Beer – Strawberry category, followed by a Bronze Medal in 2022. Most recently, the Kolsch secured a Silver Medal at the 2024 Best of South Carolina Beer Awards, where it was praised for its perfect harmony of crisp Kolsch character and juicy strawberry notes. “This beer is a testament to the quality of our local ingredients and Jerod’s masterful brewing,” O’Connor said.
Model A Brewing’s release day promises to be a fantastic event filled with live music, engaging activities, and the vibrant community atmosphere that the brewery is known for. Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time visitor, this special occasion is not to be missed.
