Cobb County, Ga. – (May 1, 2023) – Cobb Travel & Tourism presents awards to nine Hop Spots that participated in the fourth annual Bubbles & Brews, the month-long celebration of Cobb County’s local craft beverage makers.
Each March, craft beverage enthusiasts can travel to all of Cobb’s breweries, distilleries, and wineries to taste each location’s unique beverages. Participants use a physical or digital ‘BrewPass’ passport to guide them to each Hop Spot to collect stamps and return the BrewPass to Cobb Travel & Tourism to earn prizes. In 2023, Bubbles & Brews made more than 100,000 impressions online, and Cobb Travel & Tourism distributed 2,500 physical BrewPasses and 737 digital BrewPasses to interested participants.
“Cobb is currently home to 19 craft beverage locations, each with their own special story and unique offerings,” said Holly Quinlan, President & CEO of Cobb Travel & Tourism. “The craft beverage industry in our community continues to thrive and serves as a year-round tourism attraction for both residents and visitors. We are glad these business owners chose Cobb County as their home and add to the growing list of reasons why Cobb is Atlanta’s sweet spot.”
