Fortunately for you, there are plenty of options.
Good morning. Here's what you need to know for Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2015:
Today is National American Beer Day, (yes, it’s a thing).
You might think there isn’t a better place to celebrate than in a town with more than 10 bars on one street and houses of a university fresh off a number 1 party school ranking from Playboy.
The U.S. is home to more than 1,700 breweries churning out sudsy, malted beverages, according to a CNN article in 2011.
Whether you’re on the hunt for Great Lakes, Samuel Adams or Jackie O’s, Athens has plenty of options to find your favorite domestically crafted beer to honor the holiday.
If you’re still looking for tips on how to celebrate, The Post can hook you up. Check out our guide to all the bars on the bricks we published last spring. Also look into sipping Little Fish, a local microbrew new to the scene. We published a photo story on them earlier this week.
