Athens, GA, host city of our 2016 Annual Meeting, has been named one of the "Best New Cities for Beer Lovers" by Fortune magazine. Just an hour and a half away from Atlanta, another beer renaissance is underway. Creature Comforts makes Tropicália, one of the hottest IPAs to hit the market in years. The city is also home to Terrapin and Southern Brewing Co. "A seemingly small college town that gave rise to an incredible music scene back in the 1980s with the likes of R.E.M., the B-52s and the Drive-by Truckers, Athens also has an incredible craft beer scene," says O’Sullivan. Joining Athens on the list are fellow cities Atlanta, Nashville and  Asheville. View all 10 under-the-radar cities here.
