Georgia Brewery Three Taverns Opens 2nd Spot At Atlanta Dairies

The Imaginarium is an extension of Decatur's Three Taverns Brewery and is set to open next summer in Reynoldstown.

ATLANTA, GA -- Paces Properties has announced the fourth tenant to join tge Memorial Drive’s Atlanta Dairies redevelopment, Three Taverns Imaginarium. Set to open next summer, the Imaginarium, an extension of Decatur’s Three Taverns Brewery, will be equal parts laboratory, brewery, and tasting room. Expected to open spring 2019, Atlanta Dairies is currently leasing entertainment, retail, restaurant, and office tenants in the Reynoldstown community.

“The historical significance of the Dairies location and the short walk both from the Eastside beltline trail are key parts of our desire to join Dairies. Equally as exciting is the vision for Dairies location itself as a mix of living, shopping, dining, live music, and entertainment all connected by a communal gathering space right outside our brewery doors,” said Three Taverns Imaginarium owner Brian Purcell. “With one of the few open container licenses in the city, the Dairies location offers the opportunity for customers to carry our beer freely throughout the complex, making our beer a complete part of the Dairies experience.”

The Imaginarium plans to have 4 to 5 of its core beers on tap, followed by a rotating list of 20 to 25 experimental beers exploring many different styles, ingredients, and brewing techniques. Beyond a heavy rotation of experimental beers including juicy and hazy IPAs, and in keeping with the Dairies theme, The Imaginarium will use lactose in some of their beers to craft styles like milk stouts, fruit and cream sours and milkshake IPAs currently gaining popularity in the marketplace. Its hope is to complement its beer offerings with small food plates from rotating kiosks or pop-up stations.

The new urban renewal project will be Three Taverns’ second brewery location, with its first location having launched in Decatur in 2013. While The Parlour in Decatur gets its look and feel from early European and American pubs, the Imaginarium draws inspiration from the scientific world of centuries past: laboratories, apothecaries, and cabinets of curiosities, where collectors would put their experiments and discoveries on display.
