Hell y'all from Atlanta

[brewjacket]

Hi there! I am from Ft. Lauderdale, FL now living in Midtown Atlanta. I am fortunate to have two good LHBS about 20 min from my front door. I got started in this adventurous hobby at the first of the year. I just cooked my fourth batch - a Belgian Wit with orange flavor. I have done two kits and a guided recipe to round out my novice experience. Oh, and all are great!

I am sick of living in a restricted mostly tasteless beer state/market. I figured it was time to make my own so I can enjoy what the west coast has to offer. So far I can tell most are obsessed with this - awesome. I am already feeling that way. I hope to get some good ideas and use this as a great knowledge base. Cheers!

Hi. Welcome to the forum! We have some pretty good local brews in Hotlanta.

Sweetwater Brewery in midtown makes some good beer my favorites are Sweet Georgia Brown Ale and Festive Ale ( which is all gone until next winter). Their other beers are good too I'm just not much of a hop head.

Gordon Biersch on Peachtree St. has some really good beer too.

Welcome! The best way to get a great beer is to make it yourself.

I forget the name of it, but there is a brew store on Hwy 78 near hwy 124. It's where I got my start. Anyway, we've discussed it here and a quick search of the site should get you the name.

Welcome from Canton! I too am from Ft. Lauderdale. Moved here when I was 4. As for a LHBS I go to Brew Depot in Alpharetta. It's a nice, clean store with a helpful staff. Good luck!
