Main Street taphouses · The brewery row
Breweries in Buford
Buford's brewery scene put down roots in the downtown storefronts: the brewhouses on Main Street and the taprooms of the old commercial blocks, plus the taphouses along the corridor.
Every room below is open and real, verified by name and address.

The honest note
Downtown first, corridor after
The downtown rooms are the reason to make a brewery night of it: two brewhouses within a walk of Main Street's restaurants. The corridor taphouses are the second stop, and the Sugar Hill and Suwanee breweries a short drive further if the tour keeps going.
