So when I got the idea for The Georgia Craft Brewery Tour, it was 2019. Late 2019 in fact. And while I have been to a few since then, the blogging about it kinda went to the wayside with this b*tch called COVID! It really threw a monkey wrench into a whole lot of activities, right? But....let's fast forward .... 26 MONTHS!!! .... and the tour has returned. Now I first have to admit, beer and the desire to drop some pounds from your waistline are not the best match. UGH! There's a reason it's called beer belly.....but...I'll just have to work harder to work it off! So, yesterday (Saturday) with the not so warm winter weather of Atlanta making me stir crazy and a case of cabin fever, I said to my husband, "Let's go for a drive. Someplace." We ended up headed North on I-85 towards Commerce... 01/23/2022

It's a tough assignment but someone has to report on all these craft breweries that are popping up....well almost everywhere it seems... in Georgia! My count is around 68 of them...and this post is about one that's not even included in that number. But on we go with another edition of The Georgia Craft Brewery Tour! The Georgia Craft Brewery Tour -- Stillfire Brewing Suwanee, Georgia So I stumbled on the Grand Opening of StillFire Brewing via a Google Alert that is set for Buford Highway. It was a VERY rainy Saturday for their Grand Opening weekend (meaning no outdoor patio use... and they have two really nice ones!) so I really was wondering if there would be many people there. Haha!
