Craft Brews from some Crafty Rappers: Nappy Roots. We are proud to be one of the few black-owned breweries in Atlanta located in the historic Castleberry Hill area. We welcome our friends and fans to come and share in our passion for craft beer! We've been brewing since 2017 but we're just getting started!
"Backed by the members of Southern rap quartet Nappy Roots, Atlantucky Brewing is where music, art, and beer merge in Castleberry Hill. The group first became interested in craft beer years ago with home brewing while on tour. Nappy Roots then began partnering with local Atlanta breweries to create their own beer, including with Monday Night Brewing and pale ale Front Porch and Kentucky Mud, a nitro chocolate milk stout with Arches Brewing in Hapeville. Now the group has its brewery on Northside Drive where folks can drop in for beer, food from local pop-ups, and live music. Keep an eye out for appearances from Nappy Roots members Fish Scales, Skinny DeVille, B. Stille, and Ron Clutch who often pop by to greet people in the taproom." - Beth McKibben, Eater Staff
"The Grammy Award-winning rap group the Nappy Roots doesn't just own this 6,000-square-foot brewery, you can often find them in brewer boots actually making the solid beer they serve. Besides pulling taps from a broad selection of styles with witty names (like The Bluff American lager, Castleberry Pils, and Honey I Drunk The Beer honey wheat), Atlantucky is also an event space with a stage where Nappy Roots and other artists under their independent label perform. Given that the brewery is steps away from Mercedes-Benz Stadium, you’ll often find a steady stream of people pregaming with a couple drinks before heading to the Falcons/Hawks games or a concert. It's also Georgia’s second Black-owned brick-and-mortar brewery." - dennis malcolm byron

"When rap outfit Nappy Roots decided to take the group’s beer-brewing hobby to the next level, it was Atlanta’s prominent Russell family who created space for them at one of the family’s Northside Drive properties. Located just down the street from Paschal’s, Atlantucky Brewing is where Nappy Roots members Fish Scales and Skinny Deville now make craft beer and host community events, art shows, and musical performances in the taproom. Stop in for a fresh and frothy jalapeno kolsch or the sturdy ATLKY Mud imperial stout and maybe grab some food from one of the Black-owned pop-ups featured in the kitchen or a live performance by Nappy Roots and other Atlanta musicians. Don’t miss Nappy Hour on Thursdays and Fridays, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., where you’ll find food and beer specials." - Mike Jordan
"Owned and operated by Grammy Award-winning rap group the Nappy Roots, the 6,000-square-foot brewery also serves as an event facility and art exhibit complete with a stage, where the Nappy Roots and aspiring artists under their Not Regular independent label perform. With their spacious brewery just steps away from the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlantucky welcomes a steady stream of visitors interested in the rotation of brews on tap, including the well-balanced Mile High Pale Ale, light-bodied Castleberry Pils Lager, Chesapeake Bae Fruit Beer, and Peaches + Queens Peach Cobbler Ale." - Ale Sharpton
