The editorial take
Fire Maker Brewery & Bar pours a broad lineup of house-made beers, from hazy IPAs to Mexican lagers, with several year-round staples. Canned cocktails and alcohol-free THC seltzers extend the program beyond the taproom. The brewery earned a #2 Best New Brewery nod from USA Today and consecutive Best Brewery in votes. Customers consistently praise the beer variety and quality, making it a reliable stop for craft beer enthusiasts.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Hazed & Blazed hazy IPA or the Perfect Match IPA. For something lighter, Calamity Jane blonde ale or Uno Más Mexican lager are solid. Sour fans should try Sour Siren. Off the beer list, the canned Vodka Blueberry Lemonade offers a sparkling cocktail alternative.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Craft beer drinkers looking for a wide range of styles will find plenty to explore. Golf fans may appreciate Calamity Jane, and Georgia Southern supporters can grab a Hail Southern. Those seeking non-alcoholic options with a twist can try the Delta 9 THC seltzers.
- When should I go?
- Any time, but especially during warmer months when the patio and beer garden are inviting. The venue's dog-friendly atmosphere makes it a good daytime stop, and the outdoor bar is a draw on pleasant evenings.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- Award-winning reputation with a diverse year-round lineup including a golf-themed blonde ale and a college-themed golden ale. The addition of canned cocktails and Delta 9 THC seltzers sets it apart from a typical brewery taproom.

How it sits with the food
Food is available from a neighboring hot chicken spot or local snack setups, and guests often highlight the food as pairing well with the drinks. The hot chicken's spice would complement the hazy IPA's citrus notes or the tangerine mango sour's tartness.
