ATHENA®

Athena is a refreshing, gently tart German-style wheat beer. Our take on the classic Berliner Weisse is brewed with a house blend of lactobacillus, which imparts notes of citrus, cider, and sauvignon blanc. In 1809, Napolean’s troops dubbed the Berliner Weisse “The Champagne of the North.” That’s why we call Athena the "Champagne of the South,” as a tribute to our hometown of Athens, Georgia.

In tribute to our goddess city Athena, I drew the Goddess walking down Washington Street and by the her grace wheat has grown through the street. My surreal illustration has been turned into a series of Athena cans, Athena Paradisio with Cherry, Athena Paradisio with Guava, and finally Tritonia.

Athena Is now available in the marvel universe

This drink, I like it,” Chris Hemsworth says while portraying Thor Odinson in the 2011 “Thor.” “Another!”

Hemsworth might as well have been referring to a Creature Comforts brew, as his character was recently seen sitting at a table with a can of Athena, a German-style wheat beer, in the trailer for “Avengers: Endgame.”
