Cheers Y’all!
I love when breweries celebrate birthdays because it
reflects their hard work, success and happiness serving us what they aspire to
creatively quench our thirsts with! This time around, it’s Scofflaw Brewing Company, one of the South’s most talented—and purposely
controversial with their infamous middle-finger-to-haters poses—is set to
kick it hard this weekend for its first birthday from noon to 8 pm on September
16th!
I am super cool with all of them and truly appreciate
what they have done for especially ATL’s beer scene because they stir up
conversation, have grown tremendously, provide a lot of opportunities for
aspiring brewers, and make damn good beer. It doesn’t hurt that they were ranked #2 of USAToday’s 10Best Readers’ Choice 2017 travel awards as well! (I was on that panel
of experts so it was cool to see some Atlanta representation.)
And with that, I am happy to post their official press
release and the gangster list of brews being poured below.
Here's to many more Scofflaw!
Prost!
Ale

Scofflaw Celebrates One Year Anniversary
Brewery to Serve Extensive Line-up of IPAs,
Wheat and Barrel-Aged Beers
To celebrate an inaugural year of unprecedented growth
for a new Georgia craft brewery and to say thanks to its fans, Scofflaw Brewing Company will host a One
Year Anniversary Party on Saturday, Sept. 16.
In keeping with the brewery’s independent attitude and to
mark the recent change in Georgia beer laws, Scofflaw will open its tasting
room and outdoor beer garden to all. No tickets are required for entry and
customers can order a wide array of beer choices by the glass.
“We’ll be selling cold craft by the pour, like a normal
brewery anywhere else in the USA,” said co-founder Matt Shirah, referencing the
change on Sept. 1 allowing Georgia brewers to sell individual pours in tap
rooms. “We’ll have bottles and cans for sale too. Kids are welcome as always.
We’ll do our best to bring the community together now that we’ve gotten through
Irma.”
The core line-up of American IPAs will be on tap –
Basement, Hooligan, Double Jeopardy, Westside, POG Basement, Sucker Punch and
Grapefruit Westside. In addition, there will be four imperial IPAs – Upper
Westside, Double Basement, POG Double Basement and the new Goats Milk IPA. The
party will also feature the debut of Drop Kick and the return of Lousy.
Several barrel-aged beers will be on tap. Three
variations of the much sought-after Absentium imperial stout series – Vanilla,
Coffee and Honey – will be poured as well as Maniac, a strong ale fermented on
cherries.
The imperial wheat beer known as Sneaky will also be served
in Raspberry and Pineapple Coconut versions. Haole, the brewery’s first pilsner,
continues its inaugural tap room appearance. And yep, it’s an imperial version
– made with Hawaiian honey and pineapple. Including six casks, 28 different
beers will be on tap. (Details on the casks are available on Twitter
@ScofflawBrewing.)
The party starts at noon and runs until 8 p.m. The Chip
McGuire Band begins at noon, followed by DJ Sky. Food will be available for
purchase from DAS BBQ. The brewery urges attendees to use ride services such as
Uber and Lyft, cabs or designated drivers.
