The Porter Beer Bar is undoubtedly one of my favorite beer spots in
the city, and truthfully, it is regarded as one of the best in the world! With
that being said, the husband and wife team of Molly and Nick will be
celebrating in grand fashion. At exactly 11:00 a.m., there’s a handmade gift
for the first if you're one of the first 150 people in the door, you'll get a
special handmade gift! Throughout the day, they are pouring some of the craziest, hard-to-find brews along with a special tapping of the Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout. Good luck trying to score a glass if you are even a minute late! By the way, I just got some of the GANSGTER beers on tap direct from the Porter Queen, Molly, and Taylor from the new Burnt Hickory Brewery! Here ya go:
See you there, homies!
- Lost Abbey Angel's Share
- Terrapin Barrel Aged Wake n' Bake

Man, I love how
witty and hilarious their press releases are at good ol’ SweetWater, so I am
going to let them have it! After getting this cool schwag they sent me (fuzzy
dice and bottle mustache, anyone?), I know it’s going to be another nutty event,
launching their new sipper, LowRYEder IPA (brewed with rye), with bouncing low
riders, food trucks, and even some Lucha Libre wresting in the lot!
“Skip that afternoon siesta and come get loco with us at
our LowRYEder Car Show! We'll be hosting a booty hoppin', flame throwin' launch
party and lowrider car show to introduce the newest addition to our lineup,
the LowRYEder, a rye IPA. The LowRYEder Launch Party &
Car Show will surely be one you don't want to miss. The shindig will feature
live mariachi music, Lucha Libre wrestling, food trucks, brewery tours and
tastings, special LowRYEder cask samples, a lowrider car show, and more.”

with six 5.5-ounce sample pour.

General Admission
(Entry + Unlimited Burgers) $25.00; VIP Admission (Entry + Unlimited Burgers
& Beer) $60.00; donation to Embraced $5.00; Kids under 10 Admission
For all the gangster hamburger flippers who beef about
who makes them the best, the 2nd annual Battle of the Burgers should
settle it! To add, there’s going to be three televisions playing college
football, some pimpin’ leather recliners, couches in the VIP section, and, yes,
unlimited burgers and beer (the latter for VIP only). What?!! Yep! Plus, as you
wolf down herd members of Chick-Fil-A’s mascot, every bite will be going to a
great cause, Embraced, a non-profit organization that provides assistive
mobility equipment (wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, etc.) to those in need!
There’s also music by Whiskey Belt, a 5K race at 9 a.m. (costumes are encouraged),
and a ton of other goodies.
Here are the eateries stepping into the ring.
So with all the beer you plan on throwing back during the
day, burgers are great sources of alcohol absorption!

day of event
Come on, a beer
festival at the home of the Atlanta Braves? That’s pretty damn cool! It went so
well last year, why not do it again? We’re talking 150+ beers from all over the
U.S, plus live music, a wine section, ciders, plus college football and
baseball played on televisions throughout the complex. They are even having
people vote right now for which game they want on that big ass, 33-foot screen
in the plaza! Here are some specifics:
·
“150+ different beers to sample from Atlanta,
the Southeast, and all over America. We
are adding a small selection of wines this year, and we’ll also have a healthy
list of ciders available.”
·
Scout’s Alley will be open and the games will be
free for beerfest patrons.
·
There will be live music with Ocean Street on
the stage of the Grand Entry Plaza.
·
The ticket price includes a souvenir cup,
entertainment, and your beer samples.
Food will cost extra. You can purchase tickets at the Turner Field box
office with no fees.
·
Parking will be available in the Gold lot at the
corner of Abernathy and Hank Aaron Dr. for $5. Want to take MARTA? Get off at the Georgia State Station, and
then it’s a 15 minute strut to Turner Field.
·
“This is a 21 and up event; please no kids,
pets, or outside food or beverage (pretzel necklaces are allowed). The event is
rain or shine, no refunds will be given.
We have a lot of covered space if we need it at Turner Field. Last call for beer samples will be at 7:45 p.m.”
Here's the layout below:
Plus, there are a gang of
college games and a fight on HBO later that night!
Sheeesh!
See you this weekend!
