Big Beer News! Bells coming to Georgia!

Well it is going to be a banner weekend for the beer snob and friends. I have friday off and plan to celebrate the opening round of March Madness by tapping my keg of HopNog homebrew. Really looking forward to it. Have to keep track of how long it lasts but I doubt it will make it to Sunday.

Beer is getting interesting here in Georgia. Taco Mac has a special Sweetwater brew on draft for the next week or so, Ron Burgundy. It is a 30th anniversary beer brewed just for Taco Mac. Terrapin and Atlanta Brewing will also be making special beers.

Biggest news in my mind is that New Belgian and Bells are on their way to GA! Bells!!! Sweet. Should be here this summer. I can see my beer being permanently stocked with Two Hearted Ale for the foreseeable future, I am giddy with the news. Now if someone will get off their butt and get Bear Republic here in GA I can drink in piece.

Anyway, I'll take a few pics and let everyone know how the HopNog turned out. I also may have some guest posts up about the beer scene in the Far East (Yes Reed I may have you tell me a bit about beer in Japan). 'Till then..

Happy Drinking!!

Moved from Chicago 9 months ago and I missed Bell's return there. I did a 6 hour round trip with a friend last year to pick up a trunk full of Bell's, esp. the Consecrator Dopplebock. Love the stuff.

Thanks for the news!
