Cheers!

Beer Girl, Growlers & Bottleshop 

With a wide selection of rare craft beer, cider, wine, and even non-alcoholic options, Beer Girl has everyone covered! Have a drink by the glass or take a freshly poured growler or assortment of bottles to enjoy at home (or your hotel). The best part? Beer Girl is located right in Hapeville’s Arts Alley Open Container District, so you can sip on your drink of choice while taking a stroll.
 

Brake Pad 

Located in Historic Downtown College Park, Brake Pad is known for its inviting atmosphere, incredible patio, tasty burgers, and beer selection. It's been a go-to spot for locals and travelers flying in and out of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport for over 20 years!

Brass Tap Hapeville

With a wall of draught pulls and a robust bottle selection, Brass Tap offers 150+ craft beers from around the globe right here in the District. And the people serving your brew can answer just about any beer-related query you throw their way. Daily specials, unique monthly events, and a solid food menu make this a regular spot for locals and visitors alike.

Chattabrewchee the Hangar

Chattabrewchee The Hangar is the second location of Columbus-based Chattabrewchee Southern Brewhouse, fittingly named for its proximity to the airport and the owner's career as a Delta pilot. This aviation-themed brewery in Hapeville serves a rotating selection of craft beers and hard seltzers, ranging from crisp blondes to dessert stouts. The Hangar also regularly hosts community events like music bingo, trivia nights, and live music, making it a laid-back gathering spot for locals and travelers alike.

Hapeville Corner Tavern

What goes better with a burger than a nice, cold beer? The Hapeville Corner Tavern's extensive beer menu might make it difficult to decide, but you can always play a round of pool, hang out on the patio, or challenge your drinking buddy to a yard game while you sample a few.

The Manchester Arms Pub 

Nestled in a College Park neighborhood in a home-turned-pub, the Manchester Arms Pub is a local favorite and a respite for travelers. The cozy interior will transport you to England while you enjoy a Smithwick Ale at the bar. Or opt to sip a brew al fresco on the inviting patio. Either way, it's a great place to gather with friends for a cold one.
