An industry insider and respected beer expert had an advanced tasting for Abbey of the Holy Goats. He says the female brewmaster is whomping up some of the best craft brew not just in the state--no siree Mad Bob--but the entire country. I hope he turns out to be right.

Do you know where their location is going to be?  I can't figure it out from their FB page.  Answered my own question by checking out the page again.  Looks to be off Old Roswell Rd, off Mansell over close to North Point.  Kinda far away from complementary businesses (food, bars, etc) but I think it's working for Jekyll Brewing so maybe it will work for them?

In other news, there is a zoning request to change that building across from the Roswell Library to a microbrewery.  Gate City and another brewery within walking distance to downtown Roswell?

Correct Richard. Very soon there will be three breweries in God's Country.

A slight bit off thread but we here in EastJesus are really fortunate to have the great growler house that is Lincoln Fill station and home brew.   I'm serious.  I hope I post all of their events here so that any and many of you that are true beer lovers get a chance to slide into their place and sample some of the absolute amazing beers this duo is bringing in from far and wide and to experience the kindof pub-like atmosphere that this place has become. 

If you truly want to expand your beer universe do two things, download the app "Untapped" to your device and visit (often) Lincoln Fill Station.   

I used to drink Miller Genuine Draft Light.    I have been shown the light all right.  I had switched to a variety of craft beers some time ago and was entrenched in an IPA sameness that took over what I knew about beer and then along came "Lincoln" with the wide variety ( 60+ beers on draft and rotated heavily ) and now several kinds of wine and a mead.  I have learned the words Shandy and Lambic, explored quads and bitters, have moved to sours for a month and then back to smoked beer and am learning to appreciate the explorations that brewers are making in barrel or wood aged beers.

I see a couple of our 285 folks there but have found a neat place, not too far from home that only serves a few pints per customer, per day (except on special "ticketed" events) ( Snellville City rules abide here), that has a "Cheers" like patronage with hugely knowledgeable beer servers (at least one of them is a studying Cicerone).  A good thing for any neighborhood in my opinion. 

Come out and see some of us at Lincoln Fill Station and Home brew.

Stone Xocoveza.....
I think that it is a little off from last years offering, butt, this bottle in front of me is still tasty. Aged it a couple of weeks in the cooler (a no-no) after the first two bottles, so that might have something to do with it. BWTFDIK!

We were surprised to see it at a craft beer bar in Germany, it is being brewed in Germany, I guess that was the real surprise..

I am not drinking spirits today, but with Lincoln selling ALL of the bottled beer (nearly), I did invest heavily on some 25% off beer, two refrigerators full.  :-)

That does sound really good..  I have meant to go back to a bit of bourbon a week, but I fall down too easily..

Ah hell, don't do no fallin down. That shit is hard on us Elder than those Folks!

Gotta nice Lagunitas Maximus working it's way across my palate as we speak. A wonderful IPA, especially at 8.2% with 72.41 IBU's and 1.080 O.G., and the price was right!
