It\u2019s also the new second home to Firemaker Brewing Company, where history and modern flair converge in a pint glass.<\/p>\n<p>The brewery renovated a 114-year-old abandoned building, transforming it into Southern Social, a taproom with a small brewery space and the company\u2019s first full kitchen. In 2023, the city of Griffin saw the space as a perfect fit for a brewery, offering incentives to lure an Atlanta-based brewer to take a chance south of the city. Elliot Hall, Firemaker\u2019s owner and co-founder, seized the opportunity, announcing the project in September 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to fall 2025, and Southern Social has become a cornerstone of Griffin\u2019s revitalized downtown. Visitors can savor a beer and burger, pork chop, or fried bologna sandwich alongside Firemaker\u2019s tap lineup or sip wine and cocktails from their \u201cGet Lucky Spirits\u201d collection. The taproom radiates authentic Southern charm, with exposed brick walls and food served on brown paper atop metal trays\u2014a nod to old-school Southern meat-and-three diners or vintage department store lunch counters like Woolworth\u2019s or Kress. The fare is hearty, no-frills, and downright tasty: think pork chops, green beans, coleslaw, and creamed corn. It\u2019s practical, unpretentious, and inviting, much like Griffin itself. The price is quite on point as well.<\/p>\n<p>The spacious taproom also features a small brewing setup just off the kitchen and Full Swing Virtual Golf bays, perfect for working off that burger while enjoying another beer\u2014perhaps a pint of Calamity Jane, Firemaker\u2019s PGA Georgia sponsorship brew. Southern Social isn\u2019t just a place to eat and drink; it\u2019s a gathering spot that breathes new life into Griffin\u2019s historic heart.<\/p>\n<p>If you find yourself south of Atlanta, grab a stool at Southern Social and have a pint in Doc\u2019s hometown, or work on your drive before your next tee time and enjoy the warmth of a Southern town reborn.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forty miles south of downtown Atlanta lies Griffin, Georgia, the birthplace of dentist-turned-gunslinger Doc Holliday.
