Pretoria Fields Brewing Competitors

The first brewery for SweetWater was off of Fulton Industrial Boulevard, on Atlanta’s west side and opened our doors on February 17th, 1997. SweetWater’s second and current location is in Midtown Atlanta, adjacent to Ansley Park, in the Armour Circle Industrial Park just off of Piedmont and Monroe. This new building is 115,000 square feet of brewing goodness and smack in the middle of all the action. Since the brewery began we’ve wanted to be closer to our homes, the bars and stores that sell our beer, and all the good folks that drink it. Fortunately seven years of great growth gave us that opportunity. We learned a lot from that location and left all those mistakes behind as we built our new home. We have been here since 2004 and it feels good to be settled in. Our new home has enough capacity to brew 420,000 barrels of beer a year, but hopefully it'll be a few more years before we start feeling the walls getting tight again. SweetWater holds tours and tastings weekly on Thursday's and Friday between 4:20 and 9 Saturday 11 - 10 & Sundays 12:30 - 7pm. SweetWater is also open for private events throughout the week.

Terrapin Beer Co. began as a daydream between founders John Cochran and Spike Buckowski, who brewed and released their first beer, Rye Pale Ale, in 2002. Six months after it’s release, the beer made it to Denver for GABF, where John and Spike took home a Gold Medal for Rye Pale Ale in the American Pale Ale Category. Inspired by the creative culture of Athens, GA, Terrapin began to add to its beer lineup, with unique beers like W-n-B, Hopsecutioner, and many others. Today, Rye Pale Ale is accompanied by six other year-round beers, four seasonal sessions, and at least a dozen special projects, side projects and collaborations. Whether you’re joining us for a brewery tour at our tasting room, drinking a Hopsecutioner at your favorite watering hole, sipping some Hi-5 on your back porch, or enjoying a RecreationAle after a long day on the trail, we hope you appreciate the dedication we’ve put in for 14 years (and counting!)
