Pecans Gone Wild Smoked Brown Ale, Seminar Brewing

Pecan love is rampant in South Carolina, soaring higher than the shady, longleafed trees on which they grow.
But nowhere is that ardor more passionately expressed than in my hometown of Florence, where
pecans are a part of the town's heritage. On the first
Saturday of November, the entire town goes nuts,
literally, when it throws the South Carolina Pecan
Festival. More than 50,000 revelers fill the streets of
downtown to enjoy a full day of family-friendly fun,
including everything from live music to cook-offs
to local art and, of course, plenty of pecan goodies.
All to celebrate Florence's long history of producing
delicious pecans.
Florence is also home to the South Carolina Pecan
Trail, a circuit of 17 businesses offering the pecan's
buttery flavors in specialty dishes and treats yearround. So you don't have to wait until November to
go nuts. I surely didn't.

My journey began at the Florence Convention and
Visitors Bureau (CVB), where I picked up an official
Pecan Trail Passport. The booklet is not only your
map to participating establishments, but a ticket to
acquiring pecan-related gifts.
Visit each location, make a purchase and have your
passport stamped. When you have enough stamps,
head back to the CVB to claim your prize. Four
stamps gets you a nifty nutcracker; eight stamps, the
nutcracker and a Pecan Trail drawstring bag; and a
fully stamped book gets the nutcracker, bag and a
Pecan Trail T-shirt.
I decided to go all the way. How long would it take
to fill my passport? It was time to get cracking.
