Southern Smoke Decanted 2025

We raised an incredible $1.2 million at Southern Smoke Decanted 2025! We ate, we drank, we raised our paddles—and most importantly, we showed up for the food and beverage industry in a big way.

Mark your calendars: Southern Smoke Decanted 2026 is set for March 28 at our stunning new home, Lott Hall in Hermann Park. We can’t wait to do it all over again! Cheers! 🥂

Get ready for an unforgettable evening as we celebrate the launch of Behind You Beer—a one-of-a-kind brew crafted by Roadhouse Brewing and Southern Smoke Foundation! Last summer, SSF founding director Chris Shepherd and legendary Turley winemaker Tegan Passalacqua took a trip to Jackson Hole to create something truly special: a crisp, refreshing 5% lager with just the right hint of coriander and sea salt. Whether you’re a beer aficionado or just along for the fun, this brew is made for you. The best part? 10% of all sales benefit Southern Smoke Foundation.
