TailGate Brewery Chattanooga

TailGate Brewery's Chattanooga taproom opened June 2022 inside a four-story historic building on Southside's Market Street — the company's fourth location after its Nashville flagship. The taproom pours 30 craft beers and ciders on draft, including Chattanooga-specific brews from an on-site 7-barrel brewhouse, and runs a craft pizza kitchen alongside the bar. The dog-friendly patio and upper levels are a Southside fixture for both quiet pints and Tennessee Titans game days.
