Sweetwater Brewing Company

Sweetwater is a solid brewery. There’s plenty of street parking, and the patio area is definitely made for live music. The beer is a step below the competition in the surrounding area, but that’s just because the quality of the completion is so high; not necessarily a criticism. There’s plenty of choices available and it’s always rotating. The food is solid with the tater tots being much better than the fries. It’s dog friendly with bowls available so you don’t necessarily need to bring your own. Great place to go with a group not as many seating options for individuals/parties of two.

I’ve had a handful of great memories here! The staff is so kind and patient when asked about the menu, both food and beer. When I was there once with a friend whose birthday it was, I asked the staff what we can get, and we got a token for a free beer! It’s always a great vibe when I’m here, and it’s a perfect place for a large group to meet.

SweetWater Brewing is a must visit spot while in Atlanta. Definitely sign up for one of their tours. They have two options a 30 minute tour and an hour and a half long tour. The longer tours were all booked up so we elected to go with the 30 minute tour and it did not disappoint. I am not sure if they bring different groups together on the tour but it ended up just being the two of us and the tour guide. It starts in the bar and just let one of the bartenders know you are there for the tour. You start out with a free beer at the bar and get a couple more along the tour. When you get to the end of the tour there is a trivia question to win another free beer. Well worth it to sign up for the tour. Actually the first place in Atlanta that we went that the t-shirts and souvenirs were not outrageously priced. We will definitely be back.
