More than 3,000 cases of beer stolen from Atlanta brewery

[techbeck]

A mystery is brewing in Georgia after thieves stole two trailers containing nearly 3,300 cases of beer early Tuesday.

 

SweetWater Brewing Co. said the trailers had been loaded for an early morning pickup when they were taken from the company's plant north of downtown. The two trailers carried 3,272 cases altogether -- or more than 78,500 bottles -- of SweetWater's Summer Variety Pack, company spokeswoman.

 

Both trailers were located with the help of GPS later Tuesday. However, the beer was gone. 

 

By Tuesday afternoon, about one-fourth of the stolen beer was found at a warehouse in Clayton County just south of Atlanta, spokeswoman Tucker Berta Sarkisian said. But Sweetwater marketing director Steve Farace told the Associated Press "we can no longer trust that that beer would be up to the quality standards that we as a brewery maintain, so unfortunately we have to destroy it all."

 

"For a small company like us to lose that much beer, it really hurts," Farace added.
