Pint can sample thanks to Brad S., 7/17/25. New brewery! Brewery # 2580, USA # 1975, SC # 27. Hazy orange, medium white head, average retention. Aroma of citrus, earthy hops, pale malt. Taste is dank, resin, pale malt. Lingering bitterness.

Pint can shared by Brad S., 7/17/25. Black, medium tan head, average retention. Aroma of roast, coffee. Taste matches. Crisp, strong bitterness. Nice but no pilsner character.

Cool place. Huge. Big inside, bit outdoor patio. No food but food trucks are invited. Lots of styles of tap. Tried most of the hoppy ones. Ranged from slightly flawed to very good. Service was good. Joined one of the regular teams in their Monday night trivia, and they were in second place when I left so hopefully they ended well.

Killed some time here waiting for a brewery to open and I'm glad I did. Kinda divey but super comfortable place. Welcoming of everyone here. 12 taps but well curated and a cooler full of cool singles. Nice menu. Was deciding between three cheese grilled cheese and a cheese coney dog. Went with the grilled cheese and it was nice. Beer quality was good. Seems like lines are clean. Service was mixed. Parking looks like it could be tough but I Ubered. Overall a nice stop if in town.

On the same block as a couple other bars. Parking easy mid-day on a Monday. Big place. Long bar on the right, restaurant tables on the left. I did not eat but the menu looks fantastic. Large tap list. Lots of local, some more common Belgian beers. Beers served properly and tap lines seem clean. Customer service very good. Overall, this is probably the best beer bar in Athens, and well worth a stop.

Stopped by 9/15/25. Small place with two rooms. Small 4 person bar. Some tables. 1.5 stories of board games, which is the theme here. 8 beer taps, with thoughtful selections. The beer I had was pretty bad, but I'm not sure if that was the brewery or the bar. Set back from the sidewalk. Small deck outside with some tables. Decent looking food menu, but, I wouldn't trust it as the place is generally dirty. I did not see good sanitation practices and dirt and grime everywhere. Service was average. Unless you're really into board games, not worth a stop/
