Green's

We have a visitor this weekend: Brandon from American Beer Geek in Paris is stopping in Atlanta on his way back home to Washington for the Holidays.  And sure enough after a long day of international travelling and jet lag, his first request is a stop at Green's on Buford Highway (they also have a location on Ponce).  Green's is a large liquor store that carries everything you need and more for fun on a Friday night.  More importantly though, they have an extensive beer selection that rivals anything in Atlanta.  They carry many brews from small breweries all over America and an even larger import selection.
Brandon (above, pensive...) dropped some knowledge on me and gave me some great recommendations to try.  I went with some brews from Mikkeller, Rogue and Terrapin to try this weekend.  Of course these imports and special brews aren't cheap so bring some cash with you (credit is more expensive).  I'm also not too sure on knowledge of the staff because I didn't really get a chance to ask anyone any questions.
Typically, I frequent Red's 2 in the Kroger shopping center or Alex's Package on Peachtree because they are convenient.  Green's blows both of them out of the water in terms of selection and everytime we go, it is exciting to see what new brews they have.  Go check them out.
