TASTE OF ATLANTA UNVEILS LIST OF ATLANTA’S MUST EATS MENU 2020 AND BINGO SCHEDULE

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 10/28/20

Atlanta’s most anticipated 3 day food & beverage festival creates a
2 month experience, October 23 – December 23, that will continue to show commitment to support and celebrate
Atlanta’s restaurant community. 
 
For 18 years, Taste of Atlanta has drawn thousands of restaurant participants and hundreds of thousands of excited, hungry guests to gather together and taste delicious bites, experience stage demonstrations, and enjoy live entertainment. This year, the script has flipped, and the Taste of Atlanta team is unveiling Atlanta’s Must Eat Menu Items 2020 from October 23 through December 23, 2020. Everyone will be directed to order take-out, delivery and dine-in from more than 200 of our city’s beloved restaurants.
 
To encourage spending at local restaurants, Taste of Atlanta will launch Restaurant Bingo inspired by Atlanta Food Bingo.Diners will play by spending $20 minimum at any five (5) participating restaurants on a themed Bingo card to win gift cards and prizes. Receipts will be shown to collect prizes. Restaurants do not have to be “in a row” on the game card–diners simply choose any 5 restaurants they wish to patronize. We encourage everyone to play all Bingo cards.
 
The bingo cards help promote Atlanta-based, nonprofit partners such as: #ATLFamilyMealGiving KitchenAtlanta Community Food BankSecond Helpings AtlantaGlobal GrowersAtlanta Pride, and Les Dames d’Escoffier. Each organization will be featured on the center square of different Bingo cards.
 
Nine (9) themed Bingo cards will be announced over nine (9) weeks and can be found at Taste of Atlanta as follows:
 
October 23 – November 12
Iconic Dishes, LGBTQ+-Friendly, and New Around Town
 
November 13 – December 4
Black-Owned, ITP, and OTP
 
December 5 – December 23
Women-Owned, International, and Desserts
 
 
Taste of Atlanta Founder Dale DeSena shares, “Once the pandemic put a hold on organized festivals, we’ve thought day and night how we can creatively pivot while supporting chefs and restaurateurs all around town. This new, virtual experience will give the Atlanta community an opportunity to come together, support our restaurant community, and gather around our tables to reconnect.”
 
Traditionally, all restaurants have paid a participation fee to be part of Taste of Atlanta. This year’s event is free of charge to restaurants. All dollars generated by Taste guests go directly to the restaurants themselves.
 
The restaurants were chosen by well-known Atlanta writers, publicists, food bloggers, and influencers who were asked to submit their favorite, “Must Eat Menu Items” in and around town.
 
Check out the Taste Of Atlanta website for “soon to be announced” classes, cooking and mixology demos, and timely “At the Table” conversations with local chefs to learn about a restaurant’s history and hear how their “Must Eat Menu Items” were created. The promotion will help drive food purchases at restaurants by working in tandem with chefs and owners to offer restaurant-created meal kits large enough for two. Meal kit recipe cards will be posted on Taste of Atlanta’s website for those who may want to take the class at a later date.
 
The first 1,000 people to register their email at Taste of Atlanta will receive a $10 DoorDash discount code for their next purchase. Supplies are limited, so sign up early.
 
A special thank you to our sponsors DoorDashGeorgia Peanut CommissionHope Springs DistilleryPopmenu, and Old Dominick Distillery, who have helped support our pivot and enhance the experience for our guests.

SECOND SELF 6TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION BRINGS TWO BIG RELEASES

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 10/22/20

Second Self Beer Company

Thursday, October 29th thru Saturday, October 31st

Join us as we celebrate our 6th year anniversary with two new beers and a beer/candy pairing all week!
Manic Pixie Dream Beer #2 (12% ABV) is an American Barleywine aged in wet high rye bourbon barrels. It follows Second Self’s highly acclaimed Manic Pixie Dream Beer #1 in 2017, but it certainly deserves its own spotlight. With forward oak and spice nose and caramel and vanilla notes deriving from the malt and barrel used to brew it, Manic Pixie Dream Beer #2 is a slow-sipper that opens as it warms up. Hints of sweet, dark cherry lighten the overall body of the beer, creating a slightly boozy finish.
According to the Second Self team, “although it feels like we’re all living in an alternate universe right now, at least we still have good beer.” Malternate Universe (9% ABV) pours a rich amber color with a nice tan head. Sweet aromas of caramel, brown sugar and English toffee give the decadent beer a full mouthfeel with tons of flavor. Tasting notes include fig, raisin and molasses.
Information on the beer release here.

ATLANTA INSTITUTIONS 680 THE FAN AND WILD HEAVEN BEER TEAM UP FOR “FANFARE” COLLABORATIVE BEER PROJECT

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 10/20/20

Mixed Six-Packs of Craft Beer & Hard Seltzer Launch This Week

In a year when sports fans can’t gather in their usual ways, Atlanta’s leading sports talk radio station, 680 The Fan  and Wild Heaven Beer one of Georgia’s oldest and most respected craft breweries, have teamed up with those fans in mind. Releasing at Wild Heaven’s two taproom locations and in stores next week, Fanfare is a pair of mixed-six packs of beer and hard seltzer created to help fans celebrate wherever they can safely gather.

Each Fanfare six-pack contains two each of a Classic American IPA, a Golden Ale, and a Mango Hard Seltzer. Retailing for just $10.99, each of the three can designs call to mind the region’s great sports teams.

680 The Fan invites listeners and fans to use the QR code on each can to vote for their favorite of the three. A special release party with a live broadcast from Wild Heaven’s West End Brewery & Gardens will take place on Saturday, October 24, from 11am-2pm featuring 680 The Fan’s Former UGA quarterback Hutson Mason and Georgia Tech and College Football Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Hamilton. Fanfare will be available at both Wild Heaven taproom locations beginning Friday, October 23.

Mixed six-packs will be available at retailers around the Atlanta metro area starting Wednesday, October 28th. A second Fanfare mixed six-pack will release in November featuring a Modern IPA, an Amber Ale, and a Black Cherry Hard Seltzer.

After fan voting concludes, one of the six Fanfare recipes will be chosen for broader distribution in 2021, so 680 The Fan’s on-air hosts and Wild Heaven Beer are calling on Atlanta fans to make their voices heard!
