It looks like Georgia just entered the 21st Century. The first growlers have been “legally” sold in Athens, Georgia.
The Beer Growler has official opened its doors. $4 dollars gets you a refillable growler, and 8-25 dollars fills it. Beers include New Belgium’s “La Folie”, Dogfish Head’s “Chateau Jiahu”, and Southern Tier’s “2XIPA”.
Again, read up on the info surrounding growlers in Georgia in my previous post. Keep in mind, while the State of Georgia has revised its views on the use and sale of growlers, ultimately it is up to the city to allow or disallow. (with other stipulations too.)
Check out The Beer Growler’s site is still coming soon –> TheBeerGrowler.net
The store is located on Baxter Street in Athens, GA near George Gibson’s Menswear, and Gosford Wine
Thanks @jbyce for the photo…
Any follow-up to this? Are they still open/legal? The website link listed is dead.
Hey Matt, The Beer Growler is open. Try TheBeerGrowler.net
Cheers
Awesome, thank you mrdink. Will make this a stop next time I’m in the Classic City.
Welcome, also check out a bar called Trappeze. I think they had around 20 beers on tap.
Also check out Pauley’s. 28 tap beers, plenty of good looking women
I just got a growler….and I am growlin’. What are the hours?
Plenty of great beer things in Athens to do. The five points guys have 90 taps between two locations for growlers. Pretty insane. Look out for whole foods cranking up growlers when they get to starting up in Athens.
