Currahee Brewing and Hop Alley Brewpub
Brandon Hintz pulls double brewing duty as the owner of Alpharetta’s Hop Alley Brewpub and North Carolina’s Currahee Brewing Company.

Back in the studio this week, with Currahee Brewing and Hop Alley Brewpub!

Brandon Hintz is owner of Hop Alley Brewpub in Alpharetta, GA and Currahee Brewing in Franklin, NC.  Hop Alley was one of the first to break into the now growing Alpharetta craft beer scene back in 2013 and Brandon added Currahee to his arsenal in 2016. Along with head brewer Taylor Yates, he has grown the North Carolina brewery, and is now distributing in Georgia. And if that’s not all, Hop Alley was one of the first brewpubs in the Alpharetta area. We talk to Brandon about his homebrewing background, his reasoning behind opening up a brewpub, and why he had to open Currahee in North Carolina instead of Georgia. 

Truck and Tap‘s Beers of the Week

We started out with Terrapin’s newest “Side Project,” Chubby Bunny Imperial S’Mores milk stout. Then, Aaron brought back two beers from his work trip to Macon….Macon Beer Company‘s Macon Love and Macon Progress (there’s a theme there somewhere…)

Also, friend of the show Brian Hewitt joined us, and we cracked open a Founder’s Kentucky Breakfast Stout (KBS) and Rogue’s Voodoo Donut Grape Guerrilla.
