Yes. Yes you were. We did promise to start doing regular construction updates.

About that…

Turns out spring is a busy time for, well, just about everyone but especially contractors and permit issuers. So as of yet, we don’t have our construction permit and are still waiting on contractor bids to come in. Until then, we can’t make any major progress on the building itself.

HOWEVER! We’re not just sitting around thinking up clever space related beer names for beer we can eventually serve you (we’re doing that, it’s just not the only thing we’re doing).

What’s been done so far?
– we have applied for our federal TTB permit and hope to have that in the next few weeks
-We have applied for our local alcohol permits
-We have ordered our Blichmann Engineering 5 barrel brewing system and hope to have that the beginning of August
– We have started buying kitchen equipment
– and we’ve been petting and hugging a lot of cats to keep our stress levels under control.

Permits and paperwork have taken up most of our time.

Ideally, all the things we’re waiting on come in all at once and we can power through construction quickly. Luckily, the plumbing and electrical upgrades are the biggest construction needed and the space will just need some decorating and some places for you to sit for us to open our doors.

Stay tuned for more updates.
