We flew here to pick up our order of Bacon & Kegs. While there we tried all their craft beers. There wasn't one we didn't like. They know how to craft beers, which is why it's sad to see it's closed now. Cheers! Wish you were still there. read more

I really am glad that we stopped here to try some of the local beers. I ordered the habanero beer (to be honest I am not sure what type of beer it was - it was close to an IPA I think). We were catching up with family so we did not chat much with the staff about the beers but if we would have, they would have been very knowledgeable and talked all about it. I could taste the habanero finish and it was so unique! I made an excellent choice. We also had the stout and this was chocolatey and creamy. Delicious! Our glasses were plastic. It could be due to COVID-19. Prices were about $30 for 4 people to have one round. The staff was very warm and laid back but not too laid back that we felt uncomfortable to speak to them. I noticed when I travel to the south, I often feel like I don't want to be a burden. According to their website, they have a lot of events. They are easing back into it again after the pandemic. Next time I visit, I can't wait to listen to some live country music. They have a large space in the main seating area. If you went here you would be EXTREMELY social distanced. It seemed to be dog friendly as well (plus). I could imagine this would be a great wedding destination for a barn feel. read more

This place is HUGE! The beers I tried were good. Not the vast selection I'd like to see though. One IPA and no sour beers. We got there at 12pm and were the first customers of the day. At 4:30 they were going to have a food truck and at7:30 or so a band. I wood go back. Maybe they will have more options. They had lots of canned options to take home. The arg on the labels were pretty cool. read more

Oconee Brewing - a flight of beers - Breweries Near Me - Greensboro, Georgia

Finally got a chance to visit after a year or so wanting to. Large clean facility that also had live music playing in the evening that I was there. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I sat at the bar which was about 1/2 full when I arrived and grew to about 2/3 or so full while I was there. I had a flight that was based on recommendations from the bar staff and then a glass of my favorite. The prices were fair and also I saw several people order a half a glass which was 1/2 the price which I thought was an awful idea. The pours both full, half, and flight glasses were definitely full to the top and definitely a good half plus. Will definitely return to try some different varieties read more

We stayed at this Oconee Brewery as a harvest host on our travels home. This place is great. Beer was great the food truck The Burch was great. Dog and kid friendly very relaxing . Thank you! read more

Great space, but a bit of an odd layout. Likely due to Georgia's bass-ackward brewery regulations. You have to purchase a ticket and go redeem the ticket at the bar for your beer. Then, take your beer back across to the gathering space. Okay, no big deal - get a few Fitbit steps to earn those suds. Went once with my parents and had fun tasting their beers. The dunkel was our favorite. That was probably a 4.5 experience. Nice folks and pretty good beer. Last time we went was for family game night/ movie night just before Christmas. Great concept - just not very well executed. They had a balloon guy which the kids seemed to enjoy. And maybe I did, too! Nice open space with picnic tables, but really far from the source of the beer. And remember, you have to go buy a ticket then go get the beer from the bar on the other side of the building. They had darts and maybe 5 board games, most of which were for very young kids. We waited our turn for the Sorry! Game and played while we drank our beers awaiting the start of the movie. There was plenty of room for a few corn hole boards... They had a popcorn machine, but that was the only food available. We asked in advance about food and they said we could bring something in with us. Not a lot of options for carry out food in Greensboro. The market/deli they recommended had already closed (it was 5:00pm!). So, we went to Holcomb's BBQ - they were having some sort of ventilation issue and it smelled horrible in there with the windows all fogged up. - next time, maybe you could order a bunch of pizzas and sell slices or something. Or have a food truck parked outside? Or Grill some hotdogs? Then the movie started - the sound quality was horrible. I went and asked if he could turn it up... "it's up all the way. We aren't a movie theater." Wow. We went home and watched Elf on DVD. So, anyway, I hope they get the bugs worked out of hosting events because it is a great space and could be super cool! The beer is also good! It would be awesome if you could actually purchase beer in the event space... read more

Oconee Brewing features a nice space with plenty of room to spread out, though their seating is pretty underwhelming. I really liked the outdoor area, even though it was too cold to sit out there during this visit! The bartender was nice and took time to recommend certain beers based on our interests. Not sure either of us found one we were really crazy about, but they were decent. I think that this would be a fun place to watch a football game or play cornhole with friends. When it gets warmer, we'll maybe pay another visit! read more

Really enjoyed our time at Oconee Brewing. The beer and the atmosphere were wonderful! read more

We have been to the brewery a couple of times to see a show. We caught the Journey and Fleetwood Mac cover bands here. They set up the music in the beer hall with a couple hundred seats set up. We always watch from the outdoor court. They have plenty of picnic tables set up in the outdoor area. It is easy to get a beer in the front of the brewery. They usually have 6-8 beers on tap. Great brewery and venue for the Greensboro and Lake Oconee area. read more

Oconee Brewing is off to a great start and doing many things right as they open their brewery! I had the opportunity to visit the tasting room this past Friday on their third weekend they had opened and it was an incredible experience. Here is a recap: 1. Tasting Room To put it simply, it's the best I've ever been to. The building is an over 100 years old and they have done a great job of merging older elements that showcase the history of the building such as the old disks from the cotton mill with the new, beautiful, glass windows that divide the inside and outside of the brewery. They also had a great stereo system and a live band (jazz) when I visited to create an incredible environment. 2. Entertainment There are two dart boards and four or five corn hole sets for those who love tailgate games. There are roughly 10-12 picnic tables between the inside and outside if you want a place to sit and talk. There are also two tables set up with an array of board games so bring the kids along as well. It's also dog friendly! 3. Beer (what we all want to hear about) Many people get frustrated when new breweries don't have much to choose from, but I think this is a sign of a smart business and bright future ahead when they have limited themselves and chosen not to spread themselves too thin. It's better to have a few good/great beers than a lot of mediocre options. The IPA at Oconee was my personal favorite probably because of my propensity to drink IPAs, but the Habanero Pale Ale had a nice touch of heat on the front end of your drink to offer a unique pair. Both were very smooth even as a hoppy beer. They also had a dunkel that was a lighter option and a porter (I think a porter and not a stout) to offer a good variety across the board. If you are in the area its definitely worth stopping by to check out and it provides a nice complement to the quaint downtown of Greensboro. read more

Was quite a nice experience. Friendly staff, great Event space in back which 'doubles' as a common/Game area with super-high vaulted ceilings, making space seem mammoth. Beer choices were limited but had a GREAT Kolsch while there. Would refer others to check it out, and would like to get back in warm weather, outside seating, etc. will be back for sure.. read more

This is a great place and we will be back. Very cool atmosphere with corn hole, darts etc. The day we were there they had a food truck and live music! Also very dog friendly. Not to mention the beer was awesome! read more
