BRING YOUR WIRELESS PDA TO BREW FEST
A student media group from the University of Georgia has put together an
interactive website for attendees of the Classic City Brew Fest to use with
their wireless PDAs. The BREW FEST BUDDY application will help you locate
beers at the festival and find out more information about your favorite beers
and breweries. This is a student project that is being provided free of charge
to beer fans at the Classic City Brew Fest on April 3 in Athens. For all the
details, click on...

WOW, WHAT A WEEK!
SWEETWATER BREWING COMPANY MOVING
Atlanta's own Sweetwater Brewing is moving to a new brewery located in midtown
Atlanta at 195 Ottley Drive on April 1. The 2002 winners of the "Small Brewery
of the Year" at the Great American Beer Festival have outgrown their original
space just seven years after they began their company. Last year's sales
topped 14,200 barrels and the opportunity for future growth forced the owners
to look for a new spot to continue brewing their award winning ales. Their new
25,000 square foot facility will have the capacity to brew up to 30,000 barrels
of beer. Tours will continue on Monday's and Thursday's at 4:20 pm.
