A bit of history

Atlanta’s craft beer scene exploded after Georgia law changes in 2011 allowed breweries to sell directly to visitors. Brews Cruise started around that time, capitalizing on the growing interest in local beer. West Midtown became a hub due to its industrial spaces converted into breweries.
