I just saw this in the D-Con guide:

Quote:
As per Georgia regulations, all of the hotel bars will be closing on Saturday, August 30, 2008 at 12:00 midnight (Sunday morning).


As I said; WTF?! There are going to be a LOT of unhappy Englishmen if we can't get a beer! ;)

Guess we'll have to buy some outside earlier in the day and bring it back to the seating areas. :wink:

They heard the Brits were coming; your reputation precedes you.

I think that's a typo. The bar is open until 2am on Saturday, but closes at midnight on Sunday.

Even if it closes early, there are still plenty of other places and parties to go to.

Yeah, I remember the bar open untill the wee hours.

I missed the last two DC's ... does the Hyatt still do the beer tubs, in the lobby?

The Englishmen will be unhappy, but the sole Scotsman will be so pished by this point* he wont know his own name never mind what time it is when the bar closes. :)


( * - chiefly because he's a complete lightweight :P )

No more beer tubs, now there are (nearly) full service satellite bars located all over the Hyatt to serve you even while you're on the escalator (practically).

Liquor Store (off-license) is about one block up the street.
I'd get your stockpile in before they close so once the bar closes....you can go to your reserves.

Harry, if you're smart you'll go to the liquor store the day you get there and stock up. Unless you're a really rich man and can afford $5 USD or more per drink at the bar.

A flask with something really strong can go a long ways too.

Oh I'm smart all right! I just need one of you guys to point me towards it! :)

That's pretty much average UK bar prices, and us Brits aren't doing too bad out of the exchange rate - but a good supply of cheap beer sounds good to me too. :)

Bleuuggh! Spirits aren't really my thing; unless we're talking Gin & Tonic that is. :)

Yep, walk out the front door of the Hyatt, make a right. When you get to the intersection, cross the street and make a left.

NW corner of Peachtree & Baker.

Most any kind of food you enjoy is around the hotels. Very Metropolitan.
