    I'm gonna be down there next Thursday night...any good beer events worth checking out? In the limited research I have done already it looks like Porter Beer Bar is pretty awesome and the best in town but I don't see any decent hotels close by...

    Any advise is appreciated as I always try and sneak a beercation into these work trips (I hit up ChurchKey in DC on a work trip two weeks ago.. incredible) so I can walk to the pub and back to the hotel without too much trouble..

    I am willing to bring down anything we have up here in NC that you don't get in GA (I'm in Charlotte)...lemme know and thanks for your time!

    I would say the Brickstore for sure. Great thing about the Brickstore it is right off a Marta station. So if you are staying in town it is very convenient.

    I ended up getting a spot at the Courtyard in Decatur which looks like its a block from Brickstore and a couple other little cool places worth checking out. GA here I come (and then back again for the Louie CK show in Athens at the end of Nov) Cheers!

    I think you'll be happy with your decision. Brick Store Pub, Leon's, and Twain's are all great beer places and certainly within walking distance. Make sure to ask for the cellar menu at BSP, make sure to have a cocktail at Leon's, and make sure to get an IPA at Twain's.

    When you're up in Athens you gotta stop by Trappeze Pub. Shoot me a BM and we'll grab a beer there.
