The Local Agenda: Planning board to hear request for brewery today
Placeholder Image
Pap Datta hopes to turn Gainesville into the next hub of the craft beer industry, and he will ask the Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board tonight to rezone a brick warehouse along Maple Street, near Wild Wing Café, so he can launch Left Nut Brewing Co. The former Hewlett-Packard executive and Forsyth County resident considers himself a connoisseur of beer. Several micro-breweries have emerged in the metro Atlanta area in recent years, perhaps the most notable being SweetWater Brewing Co., which explains Datta’s desire to locate in Gainesville.
