Guess what Georgians, in just a few short days one of the greatest summer activities within the state will be available again. Not only will you be able to canoe down the Chattahoochee River enjoying adventure and nature all in one shot, but you can also bring some ice cold beers to enjoy the afternoon float. Sounds like a dream come true…

It’s about that time Georgians…that time where you gather together your friends or family and take a journey that has been lovingly dubbed “shooting the hooch”.

In fact, Shoot the Hooch rentals will provide you with everything you need for the ultimate canoe and brew experience in Georgia.

With headquarters directly on the Chattahoochee River, visitors can rent a canoe, kayak, or stand up paddle board on an hourly basis and spend the afternoon floating around Georgia.

There are even trips down the river that you can take in your canoe, whether it be the 1.5-mile trek from Don White Memorial Park or the 3-mile trip from Island Ford.

Heck, they even have an all-day 9-mile trek from Garrard Landing that you can take in a canoe—Shoot the Hooch provides transportation during these excursions so don’t worry.

Of course, shooting the hooch wouldn’t be what it is without bringing a floating cooler filled with brews.

While glass and Styrofoam are no allowed on the river, other acceptable coolers filled with some local Georgia beers would really make the entire trip.

Consider this summer afternoon spent a right of passage of sorts for Georgians, as shooting the hooch with a cold beer in hand is an experience worth having.
