Draught Season Celebrates Five Years, Showcases Atlanta Craft Community

Draught Season is celebrating five years with a community pop up at Atlantucky Brewing in Atlanta today from 1:00 to 5:00 PM. The gathering features exclusive small batch beer releases, vendor showcases, limited edition merchandise, and a roster of local creators and entrepreneurs drawn together to celebrate craft beer and culture.

Founded in 2020 to expand representation, storytelling, and culture within the craft beer world, Draught Season has grown into a nationally recognized platform that connects beer, creativity, fashion, and community. The anniversary event is both a celebration and a marker of the organization’s continuing goal to elevate diverse voices and create inclusive spaces within an industry where those voices have often been overlooked.

The event showcases a curated group of partners and collaborators that reflects Draught Season’s community driven approach. Participating groups include Crafted for Action, Off the Wall Brewing Co., Urban Hippie, The Social Light Book, and BudBar Experience. Guests can expect one of a kind collaborations and product launches from Atlanta makers alongside opportunities to meet the entrepreneurs and creators behind them. Admission is free and the event is open to the public at Atlantucky Brewing, 170 Northside Drive SW, Atlanta, GA 30313.

"Reaching five years is an honor, especially in a space where representation is still growing," said Branden Peters, cofounder of Draught Season. "We built this platform to celebrate culture, uplift community, and show that craft beer belongs to all of us," said cofounder Kevin Irvin.

For homebrewers and craft beer enthusiasts, the pop up is a practical reminder that community building can be as important as recipe development. Small batch releases and collaborations provide a laboratory for experimentation, while vendor showcases create direct connections between makers and drinkers. The gathering in Atlanta offers both inspiration and tangible opportunities for hobbyists to engage with diverse perspectives and to support local businesses as they expand the cultural footprint of craft beer.
