Nate Prittie joined Three Taverns almost 4 years ago and in addition to brewing some of your favorite beers he also oversees our barrel program. Read more about him below in our "Behind the 3" feature, where we highlight instrumental folks of Three Taverns:

Born and raised in Decatur/Atlanta
Favorite place to eat in Atlanta?
Doggy Dogg or Nuevo Laredo or Homegrown or Thai Chili or We Suki Suki or Fat Matt’s.
