Our Guide to the Best Beers To Enjoy in Spring

Best Beers To Enjoy in Marietta

McCray's Tavern East Cobb is the best place to celebrate the arrival of Spring with family and friends in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Whether you're looking to catch the game on one of our dozen big-screen televisions or slide into one of our oversized booths to celebrate a Brave's win, we've got you covered. 


But what makes every occasion even better is the perfect drink. Below is our guide to the best beers to enjoy for Spring and how raising a toast is the perfect way to celebrate the arrival of our favorite season.


With warmer temperatures and longer days, we want our beers to be as light and refreshing as the world around us. That's why we're trading in our stout and other dark beers for lighter and crisper varieties like pale ales and local IPAs bursting with flavor profiles like citrus and floral accents.


Bottled or Tap?

With one of the largest selections of craft beers on tap and in the bottle, we're serious about serving only the finest beers on the market at McCray's Tavern East Cobb. If you're new to craft beer, all we can say is "welcome" to the family. 


Craft beers come in an array of colors, and each is uniquely different. We always recommend a refreshing IPA on tap because it's the only way to appreciate many of our offerings' full-body flavors and distinct notes. Poured directly into the perfect glass helps your beer achieve a foamy head that lingers on the palate and has you reaching for another sip.


Not every beer is available from the tap, especially imported ones. So if you're looking for something new to try this Spring, we invite you to check out our selection of imported bottled beers that have something for everyone.


Spring brings a new season

Spring is the start of a new growing season, and this is a time when local breweries can experiment with different flavors and a new crop of hops. Spring-grown hops are lighter than hops grown in the fall, which is why many companies come out with new selections in the Spring.


With so many beers to choose from, it can take time to figure out where to start. We recommend consulting with your server, who is knowledgeable about our drink menu and who can make recommendations. Plus, trying all of our craft beers in one visit is impossible, so the best way to enjoy your favorite beers this season is to keep coming back!

Spring is here, and we're ready to celebrate the arrival of warm weather and outdoor activities. So, we invite you to join us for lunch, dinner, and before or after the game, and on Thursday evenings, grab a partner and join us for Cornhole Thursdays.
