September 2013

  1. Heavy Seas's new hospitality manager Dan Bueter gave us a tour of the newly expanded brewery, with a brand spanking new cold room and tasting room. The tasting room will eventually be a bar where they can sell beer by the pint. There is also an outside deck. Looks like we have a new local hangout.
  2. There were some great beers, both homebrewed and commercial. Kudos to Drew Morgan for his great Belgian IPA and to Craig Bryant for bringing some Three Floyds beers.
