    Tidal Creek Brewhouse

    Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, United States

    Years ago, owners Dara and Adrian planted roots along a tidal creek on Daniel Island, SC. Every day, they relished all aspects of living on the water – from kayaking and relaxing by the firepit to braving the occasional hurricane that blows through. It was during one of these storms and hearing “please evacuate if you live along a tidal creek” over and over again that the name “Tidal Creek Brewhouse” was born! So, what’s a good brand name without an iconic symbol? Enter the fiddler crab! If there’s any wildlife to be seen on a tidal creek, it’s definitely the fiddler crab. Dara and Adrian’s yard is teeming with hundreds of them – which provide hours of entertainment for Argus, their curious Doberman – and so it became the perfect symbol for Tidal Creek Brewhouse. That’s why our iconic logo features the fiddler crab holding up hops – of course! LOWCOUNTRY AND COMMUNITY We greatly value our home, this community and the environment, which is why we built our Tidal Creek Brewhouse “home” in this region and in this specific location. We love the Lowcountry culture and way-of-life, and we infuse it into everything we do.
