Georgia’s top breweries celebrate at Georgia Craft Beer Festival

Georgia Craft Beer Festival

Beer aficionados and good-time-goers made their way to Atlanta’s Candler Park for the Georgia Craft Beer Festival. Celebrating it’s second installment, and with over 100 cold craft beers on tap for sampling, the scene at the Georgia Craft Beer Festival was a glowing outdoor celebration of culture complete with live entertainment, arts and crafts, and a smorgasbord of food trucks.

The Georgia Craft Beer Festival, presented by BDI Live, featured over 30 top statewide breweries, attracting beer mavens from all corners of the city to enjoy a supremely satisfactory afternoon beneath the autumn sun. The fun factor was amped with good vibrations, lip-licking libations and rockin’ live performances by local musicians Wesley Cook, Sailing to Denver, The Higher Choir and Neil Cribbs. Jamming to the tunes, guests browsed the impressive selection of fine local artwork, clothing, jewelry and the like – but the fun didn’t stop there! Twists on perennial party favorites had festival-goers enjoying games like life-size Jenga and bubble soccer.

Event proceeds benefited The Georgia Craft Brewers Guild, which is a trade organization representing the many delicious craft breweries and beer pubs throughout the state of Georgia. Those serious about their beer selections know that without organizations like the GCBG, fun-filled festivals such as this would be difficult to come by! Needless to say, the Georgia Craft Beer Festival’s second anniversary was a memorable afternoon brimming with great sips, tasty eats and cultural treats for all to raise a pint in toast. And if this year’s festival was a preview of what’s in store for 2015, then I will definitely be back for another round!
