You’ve heard of Mice on Main, but what if they ventured off, put on really cool costumes + grabbed a brew? Enter the “Brewmiceter Hops Hunt.” Three Greenvillians — Darcy, Deb, and Jerry — wanted to support local businesses and hid eight themed mice at local breweries for you to find. Once you find the mouse, you’re supposed to enjoy a cold one before moving forward in the hunt (they suggest finishing over several days + encourage drinking responsibly).

If you embark on this quest, tag #BrewmiceterHopsHunt and #DrinkUpGreenville.

Hint 1

“Let the hunt begin at Greenville’s oldest brewery. You will find Grandpa Mouse here down by the Creek. He is old but has been around the brewhouse and hides like no other, so look hard.”

Hint 2

Thirteen miles northeast, you will find Blanch Battles Mouse. At this brewery, they believe local businesses should continue the legacies from their ancestors and help to “create and foster” the communities around them.

Hint 3

Feet tired? Fly like a swallow and visit Funky Fun Fretta Mouse and enjoy some saisons, sours, and many other delicious beers. Be sure to finish off your visit by leaving an imprint from your beer glass on a table.

Hint 4

Traverse over to where the sun sets and they Brew Four The Love! Here Trevor Mouse is hiking high among the Pine Trees. This small batch microbrewery specializes in true-to-style craft beer. You might run into a hockey player and you are sure to meet some friendly locals.

Hint 5

Godfather Mouse is not more than a couple of hops up the trail. Here the brewmaster has over 30 years of experience and honed his craft in Germany. You will find a special release or two at this lager-forward brewpub.

Hint 6

Time to hunt for Local Lyle Mouse. His farmhouse attitude loves locally sourced ingredients and his Belgian brewing techniques create beers that range from approachable saisons to challenging barrel-aged sours.

Hint 7

It is not Quittin’ Time yet. Y’all will find Peter Prost Mouse still hard at work at this brewery. It is time to blend Southern culture with craft beer spirit using traditional German brewing techniques.

Hint 8

At the end of this hunt, look for Gaspar Mouse. Put your tires to rest and top off the day with some of the best-named beers in town - gems like The Spice Is Right. Here, you are back in the heart of Greenville where a crew that creates with passion and serves with enthusiasm will take great care of you.
