How much does the founder of Wild Heaven Craft Beers love Avondale Estates?

Let him count the ways.

Founder Nick Purdy, opened a 8,500 square foot brewing facility on Maple Street in Avondale during the summer. Today, Atlanta Magazine published his list of “8 Reasons to Love Avondale Estates.”

Among them:

– A strong creative community

– Locally-owned businesses.

Purdy started Wild Heaven in 2010 and the brewmaster is Eric Johnson. The company says its beer is “designed in the great tradition of European brewing but with a distinctly American creative flair.” The Avondale Estates facility has a 30-barrel brewing system that has its own story, having previously been used by the Georgia-based SweetWater and Terrapin brewing companies.
