SweetWater Brewing Company

This was a destination brewery for me. I've been enjoying their beers for several years, so when I found that I had business in Atlanta, this was the main place I wanted to visit! From the outside the place is not much to look at. A big warehouse with the taproom at the end. The taproom is very nice though with large bay windows, a huge bar in the middle with wrap-around bar seating, several large screen tvs, plenty of tables, an outdoor area with seating, a kitchen, and a large gift shop in the corner complete with a walk-in cooler for buying their beer cold. I had a seat at the bar and had a few short chats with the staff, (they were pretty busy). Everyone was very nice and were attentive, as I never had to wait to order a new beer. 24 beers on tap, including all of their flagships and several taproom only beers. Unfortunately I got there too late to take the tour, which I would have loved to do. But definitely worth the trip if you're a fan of their beers!

Ended up here after many of the dining options around midtown had long waits. Pleasantly surprised to see this place at 70% capacity on a Wednesday night. Great beer options for a great price. Also they had their new seltzer available before it’s gone out to market which was a nice sneak preview. For food, I went with the Korean BBQ philly, it was incredible. Staff was great as well, felt so very welcome at this brewery.

This afternoon a few friends and I went on the first High Grav Tour and had a blast! I’ve been on plenty of brewery tours around the country, but never one I enjoyed as much as this one. During this hour and a half long tour, they take you to the every nook and cranny of the facility and cover anything you would like to know about SweetWater and how they make their beer. Matt, our tour guide, was so fun and very knowledgeable! He’s eager to answer any questions you throw at him so bring them all! For anyone who loves SweetWater or just wants to learn more about brewing beer, this tour is for you! And of course, they make sure your cup never runs dry—plenty of amazing beer to sip as you walk, laugh, and learn. Highly recommend!

Really cool place! I hadn’t been since it had gotten so big! Really awesome service and staff. Dog friendly areas, great music, beer for every taste. Really cool chill vibe. Hate I waited so long to go back!
