It’s rather daunting how many great beers and solid breweries the South can claim these days. For the Fall issue of Southbound, we present a rundown of travel-worthy sites to give readers an easy jumping-off point for a hoppy exploration of the region’s beer culture, from inspired stouts to easy-drinking IPAs.
