Tennessee: Little Harpeth Brewing, Chicken Scratch
Nashville brings many visitors to Tennessee. The country music scene brings fans worldwide to the music city. While they come for the music, they stay for the delicious food, Southern hospitality and darn good beer.
Little Harpeth Brewing is a Nashville brewery that is making a name for itself. The brewery follows simple Southern ideals in creating its German style beers. Focusing on the preservation of the past, enjoying the moment, and securing the future, Little Harpeth Brewing stays true to its ideals.
A commendable aspect to the brewery’s ideology is that it sources local ingredients. Many restaurants have reaped the benefits of the farm to table movement. Eating local ingredients benefits both the farmer and the consumer. Eating, and in this case drinking, local truly tastes better.
Since Little Harpeth Brewing focuses on lagers, the one beer to try is the Chicken Scratch American Pilsner. Using locally sourced corn and an American hop, the beer blends a sweet and floral taste. The sweet is from the corn and the floral notes are from the hops. Instead of grabbing some sweet tea on a hot day, grab the Chicken Scratch American Pilsner for a refreshing way to cool off.
