Schoolhouse Gymnasium Review - Druid Hills - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"Two middle school science teachers opened Schoolhouse Brewing in Marietta, Ga., more than a decade ago, and their second location called Gymnasium gets an A for their clever take on fusing suds with academics. In a shopping district just a few steps from Atlanta’s prestigious Emory University, tap handles resembling pencils complete with the pink eraser pull 16 different ales and lagers for beer nerds, gamers, sports fans, and even educators who get their own monthly “Teacher Tuesday” night. And we really love Gymnasium for their community activities. Besides hosting everything from European car meetups to run club nights, food pop ups, and trivia, Schoolhouse also takes folks to school with homebrew courses and cooking lessons." - Ale Sharpton

Great theme with good beers! This place had tons to do and was perfect for us to watch the Braves game and keep our son entertained while drinking some delicious cold craft beers. We definitely want to come back at nighttime to enjoy the outdoor space, fire pits, and some fun trivia.

Tasty beers!! The vibe is the school house meets bar!! The staff was friendly and helped with a great beer selection. If you download their app, your first beer is on the house. Also, they have a rewards program, too!

Great brewery with a laid back, open space to hang out, play ping pong, beer pong, video games, and an extensive pinball room. They have new beers almost every week.

This is a very solid brewery located within a business park. I tried a hazy IPA, west coast IPA, and a cider and enjoyed them all. The vibe of the place is good as well. Lots of arcade games with chill lights. There’s a big outside patio for dogs too. One singular beer style will not blow your socks off but nothing will taste average either. It’s worth a visit and I’m glad I stopped by. A variety of seating options as well, which is appreciated.

Always something to enjoy! Variety is the spice of life here. Very welcoming atmosphere, easy going, entertainment options for adults and kids and oh yeah... beer (and seltzer and cider sometimes). Love always trying something new. Beers aren't cheap, but also... they aren't cheap. Not looking to get trashed, looking ro enjoy something interesting and you will get that here. Also know I am paying to enjoy the space and entertainment so a good value overall!

We live 30 minutes away but look for reasons to go here including suggesting to our friends who live in that area that we ought to meet there. Beer quality and variety is strong. Arcade games, both paid and free, are plentiful. Ping pong, foosball, beer pong all ready to go. Tons of comfortable seating and board games, a few TVs for Braves or football. Great for (well-behaved) kids. A+.

The establishment was nice and had a cozy feel. Me and my husband went on Saturday August 10th, 2024. I took a point away because they didn’t have food, and the restrooms weren’t clean. Other than that the staff was friendly. Me and my husband aren’t drinkers we went to meet up with some of my husband’s friends. I also loved the attention to detail ❣️

Nice place. Great beer and friendly folks! I went in for brewing supplies but of course had a couple beers!🤣 One of the brew masters helped me out with some great suggestions. A bit far away from me but I’ll def be headed back!

Wide open with a great patio. Unfortunately, it was 95 degrees so I stayed inside and enjoyed the AC. Their selection is great and the staff is helpful and friendly. I ordered a beertender concoction. The Side Beach hard seltzer mixed with the Tropical Like its Hot barrel aged sour. It was delicious. Fruity, sour and just the right amount of caramel and smoke from the barrel. Coconut and guava. Yum! I also had the Wicked Pissah hazy NE IPA. It's dry and earthy and at 51 IBU just bitter enough. It's a little bit citrusy but not too much. I'm thinking there is a blend of Citra and Mosaic hops in this beer. I finished up with Serial Chiller. A session IPA at 5% ABV and 53 IBU. It's mild, has a bit of a citrus flavor and nice bitterness. This is another ode to mosaic hops and the addiction of Idaho 7 and Nectaron. They also have a brew shop, which I wish more breweries had. It's great to have a place to buy beer supplies and be able to talk to larger scale brewers.

Hidden gem....like seriously hidden back in what looks like an office park. Loved it once back there with the summer outdoor area that is pet friendly. Had a nice stout beer as we played some pinball. Really nice collection of Pinball if are in to that and if you are not be careful as you may be get hooked (especially on the new game of Jaws).

Got into town not long before these guys were scheduled to close but we popped in for a pint. The bartender was great and encouraged us to have another and not rush. All in all we tried three IPAs and each one was better than the next! A nice large location with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. We learned they have an interesting concept. They never brew the same beer twice. Once a particular beer is gone they package up ingredients and recipe to make that beer and have it for sale on site for folks that want to brew at home. Plenty of home brewing supplies available on site as well! Great spot!

Schoolhouse brewery is one cool brewery! They have rotational beers, meaning that they never repeat the same beers on tap. They have a brewing night, in which people who brew at home can come in and learn and share with other brewers. They have a little show to get some of your brewing needs. The space is huge,  both inside and out. Games, ping pong, a foosball table, pinball machines, as well as a few console games and a mini shop. They host different events throughout the month, comedy shows, arts and crafts, etc. The building is litered with lights and personality,  if you haven't been here, and like beer, i recommend a visit!

Great beer and a fun atmosphere! It's off the beaten path but would highly recommend minus the green snake I saw on the fence.

Nice clean brewing, plenty of free parking and the. There is the beer. Slightly disappointed in the quantity of IPAs but the two they had tonight were both very good. Although being in SEC country, they still got the big 10 game I was looking for for on the big screen. The service was good tans the bartender was very knowledgeable about their brews.

This was my first time at Schoolhouse, and as the name suggests, there are quite a few reminders of your youth. They have school-bus chairs, a principal's office, and home room desks. If ever you need to walk back into memory lane do check this place out. Besides which they have a good selection of beer to suit anyones palette. I tried the peaches and crème sour, and Nicole had their Hazy IPA. Both were tasty. There is ample seating inside and out. The outside seating are on Adirondack chairs on mini River rock pebbles, that surround fire pits. Pretty nice setup. I counted 9 different outdoor fans to keep the bugs to a minimum, which was also nice. Nice that this place is just 15 minutes from where we live so we will definitely be back.

We really enjoy going to Schoolhouse Brewing. We live in Marietta, so the location is super close to us, and it has its own parking lot, so you don't have to deal with driving into the city and finding parking. They have a good amount of seating inside, and even more outside. Their outdoor area is low-key and has cute lights and fire pits throughout. They are dog friendly and even allow them inside, which is really nice. Their beer is good. I like their sours, and my husband likes their IPAs. They are unique in the fact that they always rotate their beers - they don't keep a flagship beer on tap. They have food trucks on the weekends, and We don't home brew, but they do have a home brew store inside, which is cool!

Got invited to a friends going away party, and this was the spot. I had never heard of this brewery prior so that was shocking to know there was another brewery near me. The location of this one reminds me of Tucker Brewing: both are located in industrial parks. You might seem a bit confused while driving to this one, but if you think you're going the wrong way ... you're not. I give this location 5 stars for the atmosphere & creativity. Plenty of room to relax and spread out inside, with two gaming screens, large screen to watch the big game, community tables, old school bus seats to sit in, games galore, comfy outdoor area with fans & a country boutique type souvenir shop. It's a great hang out. I do love that the name of the place aligns with what they have within: the bus seats and the report card for the beer. I opted to start with a flight: Peaches N Cream, Terminal Wheat, Tin Foil Hat and Kick Axe. The Peaches Sour was not good: F. The Terminal Wheat was meh as far as wheat beers go: D. The Kick Axe was strong but still not too much to my liking: C. The Tin Foil Hat was actually really good, as far as light beers go: B. My favorite was the big pour I did and can't freaking recall what it was: either the Alien Amber or the I'll Be Bock. It was a B+. Overall, I'd give the beers a C. Certainly a good place to gather with friends. I would leave the expectations of great beer at home, and you'll not be disappointed.

I came here to celebrate a friend's birthday and was totally unaware of this hidden gem. They have an expansive outside space that is gated and super dog friendly. We sat on the patio on what appeared to be elementary school benches. You definitely get some of the school vibe. When I went in to order they had some laminated menu up front away from the line then another stand near the line. I was blown away by the variety of beers but wasn't seeing anything that tickled my fancy. I tried both of their New England IPAs, the Laziness and Flashback. While they were good, and resembled beer, I don't believe either carried the flavor fruity or juicy punch of modern NE IPAs. Maybe I ordered the wrong beer? Or perhaps I should've had a flight? What I loved about this place was the huge expansive indoor and outdoor space, but only wish I had a better more educated tasting experience.

Thank you Schoolhouse Brewing for letting us have my little 30th birthday celebration with you! The back yard had the overhead garden lights on, game playing, the best beers on tap, and the kids got to have their safe fenced in space to run around. Everyone loved it and we are all talking about coming back soon. For anyone wanting a light, easy drinking, yet flavorful beer, the Kolsch is fantastic. Their supplies for home brewing is great, the selection circulates and will make great stocking stuffers too.

This is the first time I have been here and I was really impressed with the outdoor sitting area. I also like the indoor area, although I spilled most of my beer at the video game station however the staff was very friendly and cleaned up for me. The beer was surprisingly really good. I had two of the hazy ipas! I will definitely be back and maybe my go-to brewery!

Let me just say that this rating has zero to do with the School of Brewhouse. @ClassPop holds their cooking class experience here. And also, Chef Chris was nice but to pay for a cooking experience based on what's on the website is not what you get. And...if this was actually on Valentines, I would be very disappointed in this experience and that my boyfriend be charged $200 for this supposedly amazing culinary experience. Luckily ours was only $85 per person, but it was less than a $20 experience. Luckily, my boyfriend and I enjoy anything we do and we laughed our way through the night and kept each other entertained. Also, let me say, we are foodies and also know how to cook and enjoy cooking a lot together. We thought we getting a semi-culinary experience with a chef and in a more intimate setting (based on their website) but that is NOT what we got. We literally learned how to make fresh pasta (flour, durum flour, eggs, and a dash of water). I enjoyed the pasta making and we made the best of it. (2 hours). Then we sat over 30 mins waiting on water to boil. For someone who has done this 12 years and taught for 27 years, I'm really disappointed overall and we were not the only ones. People drove over an hour to come so this experience. Wouldn't he have had that water boiling before class? All we did was make pasta. Literally, make pasta. We didn't learn how to make the red pasta sauce (from a can and some crab cherry tomatoes) or the pesto sauce. I know our table alone was sorely disappointed in the experience. No salad. No bread. No protein. No meatballs. How hard would it have been to add any one of these items???? Nothing!!! Just a plate of bland pasta. I'm allergic to basil so I couldn't even try the second pasta. He gave me a "smidgen" more of the red pasta because I couldn't have the other. I don't understand why each table wasn't making a different dish to pair with the pasta??? We sat with picnic table covers, served pasta on paper plates (environmentally friendly)and wooden forks. We grated fresh parmigiana cheese but we didn't get to add that to our pasta. No salt. We at least had crushed red peppers and pepper. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this experience by Chef Chris/ Class Pop. Their website is much better than the experience you will ever get, including the reviews. Again, this was my Valentines gift and experience and it was a true disappointment and I would not recommend it to anyone. Don't waste your money or time. We are headed elsewhere for dinner, drinks and laughs!

I always love going to schoolhouse. My friends like mixing it up and going to other breweries, but schoolhouse's ambience, aesthetics, and atmosphere always bring me back, and it's my first choice. The idea is just novel. It's themed after a schoolhouse, and they have retro board games, they have video games, a nice inside seating area with couches, and a great outdoor area with several burn pits. It's tucked away in an industrial building area, but it's worth finding. The service is great, and I have always had excellent, quick, fun service. They have a large selection of their beers available on a big screen with plenty of info. Great experience, I definitely recommend coming to visit. Great with a group.

From a wide selection of delicious beers, hard seltzers, and more, Schoolhouse is one of the best new breweries from 2019. My favorite of their beers is Shut the Stout Up, a solid, rich, deep stout that drinks heavy but doesn't have a huge ABV. Drinkable enough to get an entire growler! They also have some solid sours like Retox, jam packed with fruit. Not one of those sours you pucker at, it's a little more fruit forward. I'll be back for those two again! John enjoyed their IPAs, especially 99 Problems. He liked the mellow hops and drinkability of the IPA. Beyond the beer, they have live music, and a ton of games you can play on site. In these times, they have to-go right now for your home drinking pleasure!

Not much to say except the place is great! They have a great outdoor seating area and the atmosphere inside is relaxed, decorations were super cool, employees were friendly. I appreciated the sign that stated all patrons must wear masks to walk around the brewery, AND it was enforce which I REALLY appreciated. You can't beat the beer and the prices! My boyfriend loved the big O and I LOVED the cider. Not too sweet and super refreshing. We left with two crowlers. We will for sure be back. Another note is that there is a ton of parking which is nice too!

I went here yesterday for an event that was being hosted there. I went straight in to check in with my people and then walked towards the bar to get a beer. I was immediately stopped by an employee who informed me that I needed to be wearing a mask. The only places where masks were not required was the private area (that I had just exited) and the bar area. I told him that I was going straight to the bar to get a beer. I walked the remaining 15 feet over to the bar. The bartender told me that I would need to put on a mask for him to take my order. I found this strange as there were other people sitting at that exact counter not wearing masks as they were enjoying their beers. I'm not sure why I had to put on a mask just to make an order. I told him I would leave which I did. I'm all for businesses being able to set their own policies. What I don't appreciate is uneven and arbitrary enforcement of said policies. It makes me wonder if I was singled out due to the political nature of the event that was being held there. Sadly I will not be going back to this venue.

You can find Schoolhouse Brewing at 840 Franklin Ct Ste 100, Marietta, GA 30067. If you're coming from I75, take the Delk Rd Exit to the west and drive to Franklin Gateway (the old Franklin Rd) and turn right (North) until you hit Franklin Ct. This is a short street with a series of commercial buildings - Schoolhouse is at the end in what amounts to a wide parking-lot cul-de-sac and there are several small signs to help you find the path. There's plenty of parking out-front and in the parking lot as it extends to the side, with overflow across the street. I don't know if I can adequately articulate how much I love this brewery, but I'll make an attempt. It's not just the beer, the location, the brewers, the staff or the taproom, it's the entire concept. Let me explain. Schoolhouse is the brainchild of brewers Thomas Monti (who has become "the face" of the brewery that you'll see out-and-about) and Justin Waller, two former high school science teachers who shared a love and passion for homebrewing beer. They went into business together with a bottle and growler shop by the same name, where they eventually started selling homebrew supplies - it was this ever changing repertoire of beer recipes, tastings, experimentation, collaborating with other home brewers and everything else that led to the concept of Schoolhouse Brewing - a place where visitors can enjoy an ever-changing series of about 20 taps, infinitely producing beer almost at whim, with a focus on innovation. Not only will you experience new beers every time you visit, you'll also be able to access and read the recipes you like with their concept of open-source beer. That's right, all of their recipes are offered up for free for you to try or modify for your own use. So you can see how this can appeal to me, both as someone who likes to try all different styles of beer, and as someone that's a big proponent of open-source (software in my case). The space is super inviting with high ceilings and plenty of space to either sidle up to the bar or to occupy tables in small or large groups, plus there's a patio for when the weather is nice. The interior is industrial-modern with school themes everywhere, concrete floors and wood-slab tables. Behind the bar are the 20 taps (one usually has hard seltzer) where you can sample pretty much any style of beer at any one time, lagers, IPAs, Belgians, stouts, kettle sours - you get the idea. According to Untappd I currently have sampled 19 different beers there and from my ratings, I've given 9 of them at least 4/5 stars with 6 above 4 stars. My favorites thus far: * Golden Goose Fairy Tale Belgian Tripel * Smoothie Queen Berliner Weisse * Advanced Social Stouties on NITRO * Halfway to Hefen Wheat Beer * That is Sum Juicy Chit Double New England IPA * Sac Lunch Brown Ale My favorite has been the Smoothie Queen Fruited Berliner - I hope they make several variations - Super tasty fruit infused Berliner - tons of berry in a hazy reddish-purple body. Super easy drinking and awesome mouthfeel. The brewery does tasters (4-5 oz I think) including flights, half-pints and full pints. They have some in between pours for the higher ABV stuff and they also fill growlers or provide crowlers if you're in need. The staff here are pretty awesome, especially the taproom manager Christianna and if either of the brewers are there let him know what you liked or didn't like - they're super receptive to feedback. The only downside is that you may need to wait in line to get your pours as it seems to be quite popular. You can find Schoolhouse on tap at various local venues, most recently I saw beers at Hop City in Krog Street market. If you're really feeling venturesome, this area has become a bit of a local brewery row, with Red Hare and Ironmonger just down the street. I like how close to I75 these breweries are - makes it super quick to access from the interstate and yeah, it's OTP but only by two exits - they're really not that far out. I don't believe any of them serve food, but Schoolhouse does have food trucks and other food vendors regularly scheduled along with some snacks (the flavored pretzels are quite good).

Great selection of brews. I like that they offer kits for home brewing. Staff bet friendly and they had food truck on site when we went. Will be back to try more, menu rotates at least monthly from what staff told me.

Yes! Yes! Yes! I am such a fan of beer so stumbling on this place was a great find. I visited the shopping plaza because it was Wednesday and if you follow my check-ins then you already know I was heading to my favorite Wingz on Wheelz for their .60 cent wings on Wednesday. My only dilemma when enjoying my wings, is that I don't have a good beer to wash it down. Well, today I was provided with a solution to that problem. Upon entering the location, I was greeted by a friendly face who I believe is the owner. He offered to assist me in picking a beer as the selection was vast. They even had several games available to play while you sip on a wide selection of locally brewed beer. I had the option to either enjoy the beer in house or take it to go. The decor was cool and inviting and I really wanted to enjoy the full experience by drinking-in but I also wanted to enjoy my wings that I gotten to-go next door. The owner was so accommodating and said it would be no problem to enjoy my wings with my beer. I got a flight of beer and enjoyed every sip of robust and distinct flavors. One beer in particular got my attention I had to bottle it to go in the end. The location also sell everything you could possibly need to brew your own beer if you dare.

I don't know what was going wrong when my husband and I visited but none of the beer was drinkable. We tried several beers of different styles. None of them were true to the style and they didn't taste good. The hazy IPA wasn't hazy. The Pineapple IPA just tasted like pineapple juice. I took about 3 drinks of my first beer and just gave up. I've only ever been to one other brewery where I couldn't find a beer I liked, and I've been to many breweries across the country. It's disappointing because it's a great concept and has great reviews.

Really cool place with tasty beers and awesome people. My fiancé's birthday was made by this brewery. We stayed for two hours just having a blast hanging out and enjoying their wide variety of beers. They also have a neat little Alice in wonderland themed selfie station that we took huge advantage of.

You can find Schoolhouse in the same shopping center as Gabriel's and Chicken and the Egg. In fact, it is right next to Gabriel's. The owner is very friendly and willing to help. My wife and I are fairly new to craft beers and he was patient and informative. He explained the various beers on tap and made suggestions based on my wife's preferences. We ordered a flight ("Board of Education") and they were all winners! They have a large selection of bottled beers as well, both local and not. Also a single bottle of Bud Light for sale. (See picture.) I encourage you to stop in!

They are currently soft opening with a grand opening date of May 31. I really enjoy the peace and the beer. The building is in the back of an office park, but it is surrounded with trees and foliage. You walk into a large, open, and inviting space that is brightly lit. There are plenty of tables and seats, including an area with bus seats, to really remind you of school. There are 3 main screens, 2 playing sports or science channel, and 1 with the current tap list. Additionally, there is a really excellent outside seating area that is supremely relaxing. You can go out there and completely forget that you are right off franklin gateway. It's very quiet. Finally, last, but not least, the beer. I thought several of the beers were very good to excellent for a first run batch. One of the owners, Thomas, was very excited to talk about the beers and the space. They also sell home brew equipment and if you like one of their beers, they will sell you everything you need to brew if. Overall, excellent space and great beer. I can't wait to go back there! Edit: I realize that a lot of the reviews here were for the old bottle shop. They moved from that former spot and are now a full functioning brewery selling their own beers. Just an FYI if anyone is confused.

Love this place. I came here back in the fall for the first time and I felt that I would need to come back a few more times to leave a solid review. Love this bar all the beers are delicious, there is indoor/outdoor seating. It just gets busy, but it's a good thing. The place is spacious.

I had horrible experience here tonight. I went to enjoy a couple of beers with some friends for my birthday. The brewery is now requiring mask only for those who are ordering beer or walking through. Everyone else can sit at the bar or in their seats without wearing a mask. How is this helping prevent the spread of COVID? On top of all this, the owner decided to cuss me out for not wearing my mask correctly. This happened while everyone around me had no mask on at all or had them pulled down on their faces. How is this helping anyone? Very rude owner and ridiculous virtuous mask rules.

Attended the grand opening today. First time there. Great beer and wonderful venue. The service was amazing considering the rush of customers. Tried the DIPA and the Saison. Both solid choices. I went by myself, but the vibe allowed me to meet other interesting people. I will be back.

Their constant rotation of new beers is amazing(unless you find a beer that you can't get enough of and show up one day and they are out cough cough 1.21). The people are great and very friendly. Ask questions. They know their stuff. With everything that happened with Covid they have been very honest and upfront about their restrictions. Some might not appreciate their restrictions but I am one that is very happy with them. Just put a damn mask on until you sit down. Simple. If that's an issue order beer online(which is very nice) and they can bring it to the door for you. Thanks again for your wonderful beer and cider. Keep on brewin.

Beers and staff are amazing! Atmosphere is like being at home relaxing and the staff is willing to answer any question and make recommendations according to what you like. Definitely give this brewery a try!

Great place, lots of games and TVs! It was a cool environment and very original with indoor and outdoor seating. Only giving 4 stars because they had minimal snacks and seltzer options.

I needed a beer fix and didn't want to drive to South Carolina to get it from the source. I stumbled upon this place via untappd. Why not, I thought....my DD and I arrived on a terrific Tuesday afternoon. We were the only ones for a while then a steady stream of patrons came and went. The gentleman behind the counter help guide me to the types of beers that pleased me. My rating...4 of 5. Why, mainly because the place was geared toward male clientele and designing one's own beer, which by the way was okay and just wish there were more people hanging out.... but...I get it. It would be a good place to do beer flights with friends. Best of luck to you Schoolhouse Beer! We need more places highlighting local beers.

Great spot, great beer, and amazing staff. With a revolving tap list, it's always a fun adventure. And if you're into home brewing, they have you covered.

Was down visiting some family over thanksgiving weekend. Was staying at the FUNkles place, and had to get a way for a bit, as the afternoon there would have been spent unpacking boxes. So we looked for a nice place to kill time in the afternoon. There was a possibility of going to see the mother, but the timing didn't work out correctly, so that didn't happen. We scrolled through most of the breweries listed on yelp, and found a majority to be closed on Sunday. This place was recommended by an aunt, even though she had never been here. We went in, and were immediately impressed by the draft selection. Not just great local beer on tap, but also some very nice rare beers from throughout the rest of the U.S. We both got a flight, because that's all you can do. We thought about joining the "Flight Club", but knew we shouldn't ask, because ... the first rule is YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT FLIGHT CLUB!!! As we were getting ready to leave, we looked for a shopping cart, or other method to carry beer out, but that didn't exist (I'd assume most locals just go in for a mixed 6), as we were visiting a way out of area place, we picked out several beers to go, all local and not available in Champaign/Urbana. Again, no cart, so we ran out to the car, and pulled out the cooler, and brought that in as our own little shopping cart. Filled that up, and wound up getting more than 2 cases worth of beer. The overall bill was really low (we thought they didn't ring it all up; but they assured us they did). While we were there, a couple was transferring a beer they had brewed from primary fermentation into secondary, and doing an addition of whiskey soaked oak cubes. The lady seemed a tad upset that they weren't using a higher end whiskey and were using something from a plastic bottle. The staff (and us) assured her that the quality of the whiskey would not come through, and all you are really looking for is whiskey flavor (and oak), so you don't have to spend hundreds of dollars on a bottle of Van Winkle, you can spend $3 on a cheapo, and wind up with a good (if not better) product. Let your beer shine, don't make it about the whiskey. When the brewery I work at hired a new assistant brewer, who had a homebrewing background, I asked him how he liked the job... the job is just like homebrewing, except cleaning on a much larger scale. This place does the cleaning for you (if you brew there) (or so it seemed). So, you can have all the joys of brewing a 5 gallon batch of beer, without messing up your stove, without making the entire house smell like you brewed, and without having to spend your time cleaning, brewing, cleaning while brewing, and cleaning once you get done. Also, you don't have to spend hundreds of dollars on equipment just to brew a batch of beer.

We love this place! They are constantly trying new recipes for brews and we love the variety. The staff is super friendly and we love sitting outside. A must visit for anyone!

came in for tubing and a false bottom for my all grain set up. Guy behind the counter was super helpful and pretty cool. Got a real good vibe from everyone in the shop....how can ANYONE be having a bad day in a beer shop.......That would be like a kid having a bad day in a chocolate factory....inconceivable!!!! They carry tons of grain and hops and will now be my go to for grain set ups.....NICE...and it is less than a mile from Dave Pohs BBQ!!!!! Bonus!

Nice place to fill a growler. Detention DIPA is as good as it gets. Hard to find in the daytime; probably harder at night.

We moved to Georgia from Tacoma, Washington about 2 years ago. I was a part of the local home brewing scene and had very established relationships and expectations for service, availability, and recommended recipe options. Upon finding Thomas' store, I have found that his operation is top notch! I immediately fell in love with his store design (which he built most of!), and most importantly the service. Thomas not only uses software to help you build your own recipes, but he saves your profile, so you can go back and easily re-brew a beer. His growler selection is always diverse, ensuring you are getting the beer that you can't find in a bottle. One of my favorite things to do here, is try a flight of his mostly local (but not always) offerings. He also carries a wall full of craft beer from all over the country, if you are looking to customize a six pack. Once again, most of the items will be things you won't find at your local grocery. Another unique part of his business is that you can brew your own all-grain recipes in store, and let it ferment in his temperature regulated refrigeration unit! This is amazing, as it's college level, personal training on all grain brewing. If you are an experienced extract brewer, it's a great chance to use top of the line Blichmann equipment to learn to move to the all-grain process. If you haven't been to Schoolhouse Beer and Brewing, get up and go, right now!

I can't speak on the home brewing supplies here as I don't personally home brew, but from what I hear this is a really good place for everything you'll need. However, you don't need to be a home brewer to enjoy Schoolhouse, as they also have a number of really good beers on tap as well for you take home in your growlers. Their selection of taps include some of the best beers from Georgia that you usually can't find at too many other places. Even more, they don't have a huge selection of cans and bottles, but what they do have is definitely the good stuff and worth a look at. If do frequent this place often, they do have a monthly program available at different tiers, and it seems to be at pretty good prices. Worth a look at if you're always buying beer!
