Terrapin Beer Co.
Founded by Spike Buckowski in Athens in 2002 — home of the University of Georgia and one of America's great college music towns. Terrapin grew from a homebrew operation to Georgia's most respected craft brewery with a fearless approach to stouts, IPAs and experimental styles. Now part of MillerCoors but still brewed in Athens.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
