The Best Atlanta Breweries to Visit This Summer
North Georgia wine country has been on the radar of wine lovers for years and is a popular getaway destination – but the craft beer scene is exploding around the country. Major cities have been seeing a rise in beer-related tourism, and it’s no different here in Atlanta. More than 40 Atlanta breweries and brewpubs are spread out around the city and expand yearly.
Apart from offering delicious craft brews, visiting a variety of Atlanta breweries is a fun and unique way to explore the city – especially if you’re out and about enjoying some adventure with your sweetheart! There are great Atlanta breweries in just about every corner of the city, many of which now offer excellent patio seating and beer gardens for a fun summer afternoon.
