Georgia Brewery Growth

Georgia breweries are booming. The passage of SB63 (allowing to go “souvenirs”) in 2015 spurred a wave of new breweries and the passage of SB85 in 2017 (allowing direct sales at breweries) strengthened that growth. We saw a 28.9% increase in the number of breweries and brewpubs in the state from 2016, and a whopping 70.4% increase in just two years.

With the revised laws, it is much more feasible for a very small brewery to open here. The ability to sell directly at the taproom means a small brewery can be financially viable by keeping more of their money in-house. On the opposite end of the spectrum, a brewery can open as a “production brewery” with a restaurant, giving visitors the feel of a brewpub but allowing for higher production and distribution levels for the brewer. The recently opened New Realm Brewing Co. operates under this model.

Several breweries are already slated to open in 2018, and I’m sure we’ll see even more added to the list as the year goes on. It’s a great time to be a craft beer fan in Georgia.

As of Dec. 31, 2017 there were 48 production breweries and 27 brewpubs operating in Georgia, plus 5 cideries and 4 meaderies (Does not include contract/gypsy breweries.)

2017 | 13 new breweries and 10 new brewpubs opened (38.9% growth from 2016)

2016 | 7 new breweries and 3 new brewpubs opened (22.7% growth from 2015)

New Georgia Breweries Planned for 2018

This list is ever-changing. Breweries will be added and moved around here as needed and we’ll update with relevant info throughout the year.

Athentic Brewing Co. | Athens, GA

Owners David Rice and Glen Sprouse plan to open by the end of 2018.
