Columbia Celebrates the Grand Opening of Steel Hands Vista Distilling and Brewing

Columbia Welcomes Steel Hands Distilling and Brewing

Columbia, get ready to raise your glasses! There’s a new local gem in town that’s ready to shake things up. Steel Hands Brewing has officially opened their doors to Steel Hands Vista Distilling and Brewing, and they’re all set to bring a splash of spirit to The Vista. Now situated at 705 Gervais Street, this vibrant new spot offers a delightful mix of crafted spirits and experimental craft beers in a cozy, art-filled atmosphere.

A Dream Comes True

Since its inception in 2018 in Cayce, Steel Hands has made quite a name for itself as the largest production brewery in the Midlands. And in 2022, they ventured into North Carolina, opening a location in Greensboro. But the team didn’t stop there. They had another adventure in mind, this time focusing on something completely new—crafting small batches of spirits!

Ashley Lambert, the Marketing Director of Steel Hands Brewing, shared her excitement: “We’re thrilled to introduce our latest concept to our Steel Hands community of fans – Steel Hands Vista Distilling and Brewing is now open.” She went on to express their long-standing dream of venturing into craft spirits, emphasizing their passion for live music and the desire to uplift aspiring singer/songwriters. “We can’t wait for our fans to experience our new handcrafted spirits and discover a whole new way to enjoy our brands,” she added.

A Taste of Columbia

As you step inside, you’ll be greeted not just by the rich aromas of brewing and distilling but also by local art that beautifully reflects Columbia’s history. This isn’t just a place to enjoy drinks; it’s an experience that celebrates community and creativity.

The vibes don’t stop there! The music playing in the background features talented artists from their popular Nashville Nights series, held over the summer at their Cayce location, along with local musicians who have entertained at Steel Hands before. So, whether you want to relax with a drink or enjoy some great live music, this spot has you covered.

Signature Cocktails and Delicious Bites

Now, let’s talk about what you can sip on! Steel Hands Vista offers a menu full of mouth-watering handcrafted cocktails.
