So has anyone had this beer yet? I have had it before and I love it.. they have at least 5 different brews.. i cant remember all of them... 420, Blue Moon, Festive (9.2% alcohol), Summer Hummer (soon to be called just Hummer and sold year round), Happy ending, and a few more.

It is brewed here in Atlanta at a micro-brewery (sp?).. One of the part owners, Freddy, is cool as shit. Every Monday and Thursday i believe, thursday for sure cuz i just got home from there, they open up the brewery to the public.. they give a free tour which is kinda cool, nothing fancy but they are working on it.They are expanding the front of the building to make a "tasting area" with a bar and a patio for hanging out on, the band, etc..

When u enter the gate you can pay $6 and get a Sweetwater 420 glass and 3 tickets for beer. They have a live band every time.. tonight's wasnt that great, but gives you something to listen to while drinking and hanging out.

Anyway, thought I'd see what everyone thinks of the beer, spread a little publicity around, and let everyone know of a cool place to kinda hang out and have some good beer. It is close to smith's old bar.. starts at 4:20 and ends between 7 and 8..

nah.. i know it has been around for awhile..about 10 years they have been going.. They were over on Fulton Industrial i believe before they moved to the new location.

I've only had their beer recently and just found out about the brewery a couple weeks ago. I had never heard anyone talk about it on here so i was just posting it up.. i probably havent heard/seen the beer cuz i live on the southside of town, which doesnt have a big customer base for the beer.

anyway, if this was already known.. forget i posted it, if at least one person hasnt heard of it then it was worth it

I'm 18 and I know about Sweet Water.

I don't care for 420, but Summer Hummer is quite good.

oh and it's "Sweet Water Blue", not Blue Moon. It's an awesome beer, by far my favoirte and I drink it on a regular basis.

Haha.. sorry.. i dont know why i said blue moon.. i think there might be a beer out called that.. i dunno.. sorry for the error.

Summer hummer is my favorite along with the blue though.. Festive was a little too strong and dark for me
