Golfers win big from Sweetwater Brewing at The Great Atlanta Beer Fest

Great Atlanta Beer Fest attendee takes his best shot at the Sweetwater 19th Hole Par 3 Challenge @ Turner Field

Atlanta, GA -  A bittersweet goodbye to the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field has opened the door to a multitude of events being held on the actual field...event a beer fest with a golf simulator!

On October 8th, Atlanta Beer Festivals held their 2016 Great Atlanta Beer Fest on the field at The Ted.  Over 30 breweries were represented and served up tastings of over 100 different beers to over 5,000 event attendees.  One of the nations largest 'micro-breweries' and Atlanta native Sweetwater Brewing, partnered with Mobile Golf Events to present the Sweetwater 19th Hole Par 3 Challenge. 

Contestants lined up to take their best shots at a 135 yard simulated par-3 contest for some great prizes offered up by Sweetwater.  Justin Menacker took the first prize of a private 'cask making' experience for 8 people.  Second place went to Zach Nichols who won a private tour and tasting for 8 and third place winner, Troy Beeler, walked away with a bag full of Sweetwater branded merchandise.  One other lucky winner on the day was Chris Koch.  Mobile Golf Events collected the names of every golfer who hit the green in regulation and drew one winner for a $100 gift card for Cobra-Puma Golf.

1st Place winner Justin Menacker shows off his prize alongside MGE's Brett Gorney.

Mike DiLonardo, ABF Founder, stated, "Having Mobile Golf Events set up their Mobile 19th Hole at the festival was a new and awesome addition to the overall experience.  We're definitely looking forward to having them at future events."  PGA Director of Events for Mobile Golf Events, Brett Gorney said, "You couldn't have asked for a better opportunity to showcase what we do to so many people.  And the venue...on the field at Turner Field?...come on..it doesn't get any better than that for a beer fest!  And a big thank you to Sweetwater Brewing for sponsoring the prizes.  It was an awesome day!"
