Savannah’s newest microbrewery and gastropub is debuting Paddy Wagon, a nitro dry Irish stout this St. Patrick’s Day. It’s malty, dark in color and has a bit of a chocolate flavor to it. The Paddy Wagon has a creamy taste without being heavy at all. It’s bitter, but doesn’t overwhelm you. With an ABV of just 3.5%, Hop Atomica brewer Chance Farago, aka “Chance The Pickler,” describes the Paddy Wagon as “crushable.”
“This is the kind of beer that I like for breakfast,” Farago said. “If you’re doing St. Patrick’s Day right, there’s going to be a beer with breakfast.”
The next time you take a gallery hop around Savannah, you’ll have a new place to see artwork: Gallery Hop Atomica.
“We love puns around here,” said gallery manager, brewer, and self-proclaimed ‘master fermentation geek’ Chance Farago, “Like we had a potato dish and we called it ‘Hop Potato.’ We’re working on a little frozen pizza thing that we’re calling the ‘Hop Pocket.’
“It’s cheesy but we like it.”
Hop Atomica, a microbrewery and gastropub in Baldwin Park, opened last July at 535 East 39th Street in an area that guaranteed that it would cater almost exclusively to neighborhood residents. With the new exhibition component now integrated into the space, Farago is adding local artists to the menu.
