Taco Mac Honors SweetWater Brewing Company’s 20th Year with March Beer of the Month Status

Taco Mac wishes “hoppy birthday month!” to fellow hometown suds bud SweetWater Brewing Company, designating four SweetWater brews as March Beers of the Month. Four goldens from SweetWater Brewing Company sail into the BOTM spotlight: Grass Monkey (hoppy wheat with lemongrass, 5.4% ABV), 420 (extra pale ale, 5.7% ABV), Goin’ Coastal (IPA with pineapple, 6.1% ABV) and Hatchery: Mosaic (single hop IPA, 6.4% ABV). On Thursday’s Pint Night beginning at 5 p.m., enjoy a pint of the evening’s featured beer and take home a different glass each week. Still thirsty? Ask for the month’s special SweetWater Super Vessel sporting a colorful 20^th-anniversary logo. It’s filled with 23 ounces of beer bliss of any featured BOTM for only $14.95, while supplies last. Taco Mac taps a special 20^th Anniversary ale on Mar. 14, one more reason they’re known as having the most craft drafts around. Taco Mac and SweetWater have eyes on sending some lucky winners to the SweetWater 420 Fest taking place April 21-23 at Centennial Olympic Park. Each Thursday, guests who pick up the weekly SweetWater glassware during Pint Night can snap a photo of their new glass and post it on Taco Mac’s Facebook page to enter. The person whose photo garners the most votes each week wins a free pair of tickets to the hottest music fest in the ATL. Two VIP wristbands are up for grabs to the dedicated Pint Night fan who collects all five unique SweetWater glasses and snaps the most creative photo incorporating their new glass menagerie by Sunday, April 2.

SweetWater 420 Fest Taps Bands, Brews and Seminars April 19-21 in Candler Park

Going to SweetWater 420 Fest this weekend? You won't want to miss Arianne Fielder, head mixtress at Seven Lamps, guest speaking and doing a beer cocktail seminar on Saturday, April 20 at the Fest in Candler Park. Fielder whips out some mean craft cocktails involving craft beers, so you could call her the "proof-fessor" of the beer cocktail seminar.
