This Monday, July 29th, we’ll be tapping a very special beer to support some very special people.

Amazing brewer, wonderful person, and friend of the Pub and her partner Pat have been working for years to bring their Keeping Together beer project to life, and they’ve recently run into a disastrous situation for their brewery.

“Our brewhouse equipment supplier notified us that they were closing—we won’t be receiving any finished equipment and won’t likely be able to recover our money. We were 90% paid on our contract, over $472,000.”

These folks have been generous enough to share some of their incredible and impossible-to-find beers with the Brick Store and our guests, and on Monday 7/29 we’re going to try and return just a bit of that generosity back to them.

At 4:30 PM, we’ll be tapping a keg of Keeping Together Thoughts Without A Thinker, a mixed culture saison with Earl grey tea, orange and saffron, and all the proceeds from the beer will go to Averie and Pat to help them recover from the loss of critical start-up capital.

Come down on Monday afternoon, enjoy some delightful beer and help Keeping Together get back on track. See ya down the Pub!

These casks will be gone before you know it so hurry down to the Pub tonight and celebrate with us. See ya down the Pub!

The Brick Store Pub opened on June 27, 1997 at 9pm.

Three friends from Athens, Georgia (Dave Blanchard, Mike Gallagher and Tom Moore) wanted, like so many others with a degree and no idea what to do with it, to own their own pub. Having worked in the bar/restaurant business for a combined 20+ years in Athens and Atlanta, they realized a niche had yet to be filled — a neighborhood pub where conversation dominates, pints are served properly and in the appropriate glassware, service is friendly and knowledgeable and the food is made from scratch every day, all accented by a beautiful historic building located on a bustling town square.

Patrons come for all that we passionately offer but also because we provide an environment that boasts no televisions, no neon, no obnoxious music and no major domestic beers. What you find at our main bar are local, regional and nationally acclaimed American craft beers, German and English specialty beers and our vintage and reserve bottled beer list. We frequently rotate a carefully chosen array of 29 draught beers, 75 bottled beers, plus an additional Beer Engine.

In 2004, House Bill 645 brought an end to Georgia’s 6% A.B.V. (alcohol by volume) law and allowed beers up to 14% to be sold in the state. This was the catalyst for our Belgian Room, a cozy host to all the new and amazing beers we could offer and the beer lovers who were eagerly awaiting their arrival. “Upstairs and to the left” is where you will find the Belgian Beer Bar, featuring 8 rotating draughts and over 120 Belgian/Belgian-style bottled beers.

Shortly after our new beer law was changed, the 3 partners took a trip to Belgium and came across a tiny pub in Antwerp they had heard about which specialized in cellared beer. A phone book size beer list met us and so began our foray into the world of aged beer. To say that experience changed the way we offer beer would be an understatement. Upon returning to Decatur, we immediately began purchasing beer that would not only hold up but improve with age. Strong ales, Quads, Lambic, Barley wines, Imperial Stouts. Curating in the last 10 years over 900 different vintages from all over the world. A never ending process which is equal parts hobby and labor of love. We believe this to be the largest beer cellar in the United States and one of the largest in the world.
