    Grainreaper is heading to Atlanta, GA. May 16-20 possible gathering?

    I'm heading to Atlanta for work training may 16th through 20th and was hoping to meet a few of the rabble from the area while out there, I get that it's a weekday gathering but I can bring my kilt and kit along should the opportunity arise to meet up. Please post up thoughts and ideas, I'm heading out for training with Mitsubishi. I will add my hotel and location as soon as I get further details.

    I will be happy to meet while you are here! Our kilt nights have been pretty uneven, sometimes we've done weekdays, sometimes weekends. We usually try to meet at either a brewery for a beer tasting, or a bar/restaurant.

    I'm not aware of any breweries in Lithia Springs, nor have I ever stopped there for a bar or restaurant. I do drive through it every day on my way to work, though, so I don't feel that it is particularly far from anywhere. In Atlanta, every drive is at least 30 mins, often more, to get anywhere.

    What would you be interested in, and I can see about getting more information? So far, we've met at a couple of local midsize craft breweries, but there are several more that we could tour, such as Sweetwater, or Second Self. You aren't far from my favorite local chain of bar/restaurants, Taco Mac in Douglasville, although that is their smallest location, with only 57 beers on draft. You are about 15 minutes from downtown Atlanta, with a huge variety of places to meet, as well.

    I'm always up for a brewery/brewpub! I'd imagine that by the time I'm out there I may want to leave the heavy wool kilt and tweed jacket at home and opt for more lightweight kilt options?
