Things have gotten a lot sweeter for beer drinkers in Georgia over the past few years.
For starters, a new law went into effect on Sept. 1, 2017, that not only allowed breweries to sell beer directly to consumers in taprooms, it did away with mandatory tours and made it legal to sell beer to-go and food on-site.
