Description
Here at Blue Pants we like to make unreasonably good beer. Our brewery is where the magic happens, where Hops, Barley, Water, and Yeast come together to make great craft beer. That’s really all you need. Our brewers started out as homebrewers, playing with ingredients, and learning which tastes we love. We use our skills and creativity to create unique, or just exemplary beers, that may not fit any particular style category but are always unreasonably good. Or really, as we say in the brewery, we make unreasonably good wort and let the yeast do the rest.

Visit the tap room for the opportunity to try our largest selection of beers. It’s a constantly rotating lineup on some of the taps, featuring unique beers only found in the tap room. On other taps you will find our mainstays and seasonals straight from the source. We open a cask, serve through a randall, or do SMASH beers now and then for some unique experiences only available at the brewery. The taproom began with approximately 1200 feet of indoor space and now also features a massive 4000 square foot patio (including an outdoor stage).
The taproom is open seven nights a week, and our beers are available on tap in bars and packaged on shelves throughout the region. Wherever you are in the southeast, we hope you’ll enjoy some unreasonably good beer with us.

Admin Note: Blue Pants Brewery briefly announced their closing of their physical brewery and taproom in August 2019, but then in October 2019 an announcement that they would continue the brand as a client brewer with the beers being brewed at Lazy Magnolia going forward.

Sample at the Beers from the Bikes Villes tasting on 11/08/2013. Brownish-black pour with a thick foamy tan head that dissipates slowly. Sticky rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of roast malt, hops and citrus. Medium-bodied with flavors of chocolate malt, mild coffee and citrusy hops. The finish is roasty with a short malty aftertaste. Decent overall.

Pours an entire glass of head which followed a vigorous "Pop" when I lifted the cap. The aroma is clean and lemony hops. The flavor is assertively bitter. A bit more so than I usually prefer in a Pale Ale. Way over carbonated.

22 oz bomber courtesy of Suttree. The pour is a hazy brown black with a large khaki head. The aroma is stale coffee, roast and a light vanilla sweetness. The taste is a weird sweetness up front, turns towards the roast in finishes fairly strong with the stale coffee. As the beer warmed, the sweetness at the start settled down a lot, making this more drinkable. The palate is medium to light bodied with a coffee acidity and a weird synthetic char finish. This was not really my thing. Thanks Phil, enjoyed trying a new brewery.

22 oz bottle courtesy of Suttree, shared at the beastiefan2k going away tasting. The pour is clear golden with a smallish white head. The aroma is overly sweet floral malt, along with caramel, fruit, and an herbal bitter hoppiness. The taste expresses the sweet caramel floral malt more as honey, though it is still sticky sweet. The herbal hops are muddled in there as well, very a part from the sweetness. The taste didn’t really work for me, though I certainly see what they were going for. The palate is medium bodied, lingering sweet finish, and well masked alcohol. Thanks Phil.

Bomber shared by tia at the 20th Richmond Gathering. Pours a hazy amber color with a large foamy white head. Good head retention. Aroma of caramel malts, herbal hops and a strong chemical note. The taste is acetone, citrus hops, caramel malts and a tinny note. Medium bodied. There is the start of a decent beer here, but it’s pretty off.

22 oz bottle courtesy of Suttree. The pour is a golden brown, mostly clear, with a huge 4 inch noisy tan head. The head falls rockily with a lot of crackling. The aroma is caramel malt sweetness, along with a grassy floral hop. The taste is toasted caramel, grassy huskiness, and a chemical floral. The aftertaste also shows a bit of alcohol heat, which was surprising at 7% abv. As the beer warms, the chemical roughness becomes pronounced. The palate is light to medium bodied, some pretty rough carbonation and the bright dry alcohol in the finish. Thanks for sending this my way, Phil.
