A collab with 12 of the best breweries the U.S., 12 taps being taken over throughout Atlanta, and crazy fun awaits!
Whaddup Y'all!!
Starting Monday, Atlanta is going to be unforgettable for craft beer lovers as Sierra Nevada
invades the city with the highly anticipated arrival of their Beer Camp Across America Variety
Pack release. I wrote about it initially here to give y'all a sneak peek.
As many of you know, I participated in Beer Camp a couple of
years ago here where you come up with your own beer and brew it at the
state-of-the-art brewery in Chico, California. This 12-pack will boast 10
bottles and two cans containing the individual collaborations with a dozen of
the best microbreweries in the U.S. My mouth salivated at the mere typing of
who participated—Allagash Collaboration (Myron's Walk); Asheville
Brewers Collaboration (Tater Ridge); Ballast Point Collaboration
(Electric Ray); Bells Collaboration (Maillard's Odyssey); Cigar City
Collaboration (Yonder Bock); Firestone Walker Collaboration (Torpedo
Pilsner); New Glarus Collaboration (There and Back); Ninkasi
Collaboration (Double Latte); Oskar Blues Collaboration (Canfusion);
Russian River Collaboration (Yvan the Great); Three Floyds
Collaboration (Chico King); and Victory Collaboration (Alt Route).
Here is the video!
“This is
ambitious—maybe a little crazy—but craft brewers delight in pushing limits,”
said Ken Grossman, founder of Sierra Nevada. “We’re honored to celebrate
craft’s success alongside so many of our peers who are traveling from every
corner of the country. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience we look forward to
sharing with beer lovers everywhere.”
What’s even
crazier besides the 12-pack being available in stores is the how all are going
to be available during tap takeovers at a few of ATL’s finest brew pubs! Here is
the schedule straight from Sierra Nevada:
- July 17: Brick Store Pub
- July 19: Cypress Street Pint and Plate
- July 26: 15th St Pizza (McDonough)
- August 9: Midway Pub
- August 23: The Wing (formerly Wild Wing in Marietta)
Nuts, right?
Well for a more detailed description of how one particular spot plans
to throw down, I received info straight from the source and one of my faves—Midtown’s
Cypress Street Pint and Plate (817 West Peachtree Street; 404-815-9243).
From live music to souvenir glasses, I am there on July 19th from
noon to 5 p.m.! Check it:
