Hi everone,
We have decided to make the tour on the 27th of December a benefit tour for a friend of ours. James "Jimbo" Slusher, a friend and avid disc golfer, is currently in treatment for Squaemous Cell cancer. Survival rate for this type of cancer is 20%, however for those of you that know Jimbo, his survival chances are MUCH higher than that. He can't work right now because of the aggressive nature of his Chemo and Radiation therapy. Jimbo is one of the best spa and pool eqipment technicians that you will ever come across. Since most of us know Jimbo from the disc golf course, we will be having a silent auction with lots of new and vintage discs during the tour. Our distributor will also be donating some goodies too, so there will be some neat stuff to bid on. Come out and open your hearts and wallets for him. All proceeds will go straight to him and his family to help with buying food and paying utlities. Hope to see y'all there, and even if you don't know Jimbo, come out and have a cold one with us in the company of some great people. |

Hi All,
Things have picked up and we've been pretty busy here at the brewery. Thanks to all of y'all for your continued support. We have just submitted the label for approval for "Bombshell Blonde", a creamy blonde ale. The label is for 12 oz cans. Guys (and gals), we are pretty stoked about this new addition to our line-up. Feedback has been very good for the blonde ale (previously only available on draft, and pretty limited at best) so we decided to make the next move and can this year-round beer. Our artist is now working on can design for Buried Hatchet Stout, and we plan on releasing that as a year round beer also. Thanks again, and we'll keep you posted!

Our Oktoberfest party went off without a hitch. Over 140 people consumed an 80 lb pig, six chickens, 6 gallons of beans, over 220 brats, and 75 gallons of beer. I think that everyone had a pretty good time. This will be an annual event, so if you missed it, there's always next year. For those of you that made it, thanks for coming out and sharing your Saturday night with us! |
