SweetWater Brewing Company
Joe Abbott's Company Details
The first brewery for SweetWater was off of Fulton Industrial Boulevard, on Atlanta’s west side and opened our doors on February 17th, 1997. SweetWater’s second and current location is in Midtown Atlanta, adjacent to Ansley Park, in the Armour Circle Industrial Park just off of Piedmont and Monroe. This new building is 115,000 square feet of brewing goodness and smack in the middle of all the action. Since the brewery began we’ve wanted to be closer to our homes, the bars and stores that sell our beer, and all the good folks that drink it. Fortunately seven years of great growth gave us that opportunity. We learned a lot from that location and left all those mistakes behind as we built our new home. We have been here since 2004 and it feels good to be settled in. Our new home has enough capacity to brew 420,000 barrels of beer a year, but hopefully it'll be a few more years before we start feeling the walls getting tight again. SweetWater holds tours and tastings weekly on Thursday's and Friday between 4:20 and 9 Saturday 11 - 10 & Sundays 12:30 - 7pm. SweetWater is also open for private events throughout the week.
