6 Best Craft Breweries near Watkinsville

“Amazing staff. knowledgeable and friendly. the oktoberfest was delicious“

“Small intimate brewery with really friendly staff. One of the brewers Eric took the time to recommend a variety of different beers despite being busy and even suggest a particular brewery that offered more stouts as they only offered one. Really standout service.“

“A good selection of beers with a full liquor selection. The flight is really nice; select 4 and then you can choose a favorite. There was an also an impromptu band playing when we went, 3:30 pm on a Sunday. Very relaxed atmosphere. No food however.“

“I love Figment! It's really nice to have a local kombucha brewery to support. The staff is very friendly and the kombucha is tasty. I have a 32 oz growler and can refill it for $12 which is way more sustainable and cheaper than buying cans--(which I do love that they package in cans). They always have a lot of interesting flavors that you can't buy at the grocery store. They also have a booth at the Athens farmers market virtually every Saturday which makes it that much more convenient to get a refill.

They also sell boutique-y pantry items in store which are cool for gifts and stuff.“

“The beer is just phenomenal. The Athens location is also most excellent. I love the vintage tire store vibe, and the patio is super nice with fans when it’s hot. We took our pup and he was comfortable. Excellent staff as well. Thanks for a great experience, we’ll be back next time we are in Athens to visit our UGA student.“

“Terrapin is one of those breweries that gets a lot right and after trying multiple beers that were standout in their own right I knew they were more than their IPA style. The chocolate peanut butter pretzel stout was really good and not overwhelmingly sweet. Several of the other beers were great and the server was really friendly. One of the brewers even came to the bar to recommend other beers. Great service and great beer. An absolute must visit for craft beer if you are in Athens.“
