ABOUT PONTOON BREWING:
Pontoon Brewing was founded by a group of longtime pals and home brewers who were passionate about developing scrumptious beer for the pontoon lifestyle – an idea of escaping the daily stresses and relaxing on a pontoon boat – “a slow moving party platform; it can’t go far and can’t go fast so might as well drink”. Opening their doors in December 2017, they became the first microbrewery in Sandy Springs. Learn more about the brewery here, and follow them on Untappd.
