Manchester TN

I put this in local gatherings as well, but am putting it here for more traffic.

I'm going to be spending 2 months (March/April) in Manchester TN for a new job I'm starting in 2 weeks. Anyone familiar with this area? I'm looking for restaurants, brewpubs, and activity suggestions for evenings.

Hey... there is a thread for us TN brewers. There are a ton of guys in there from all over the state and I'm sure someone knows something about Manchester.

Manchester, really?

I think they still have some limitation on the liquor laws.

Your best bet is to plan on going to either Chattanooga or Nashville (about an hour drive either way) to experience anything outside of nurseries and farming. The Jack Daniels distillery isn't too far, you can make a trip there and do the tour.

Brewpubs, ha, you're in for a rude awakening my friend.

If you get itching for some homebrew, i'm just over an hour away.

Guess I'll start a second round of P90x and take my Xbox. Tell me they at least have nice hotels. Holiday Inn?

They do have a nice holiday inn. Go to murfreesboro to liquid smoke. Its about 40 mins from Manchester

That's quitter talk.

I would love to see the brew house WW! Maybe if I get hung up over a weekend or get out of work at a decent hour one day, I'll swing over and bug you and drink your homebrew.

Thanks jay, I'll check that out.

Liquid smoke is a nice little bar it has alot of microbrew selections and a few on draft.

Anytime.

I went to Manchester once. I think it has a Walmart.

Really? Nobody mentions Bonnaroo? I'll be done the f'ing week before it. Figures

Bonnaroo is the thing in Manchester. That is where I live but work at Jack Daniels. It is 45 minutes away. You need to take the tour if you have never been

In the middle of nowhere. Found an little German diner with a great German beer selection. Spaten Dunkle now. And she even knows how to properly pour dregs on the weizen beers. Nice. I'll be here a lot during my 2 month stint.

That is a good place to drink. The girlfriend and I go up there and hang out with one if the waitress

Didn't read the thread but yeah Bonnaroo is there sometime in the beginning of June....
