I received a nice e-mail from Jason this morning regarding the Four Firkins. He picked up the keys for the new space in St. Louis Park on Friday. He’s on the agenda for the April 28th City Council meeting for liquor license approval. It probably won’t be an issue, but if you live in St. Louis Park, please consider joining us at the meeting in support that evening. The plans are set – look forward to a May 24th opening!

The above photo of Bryon Tonnis epitomizes Gitchee Gumee Brewfest for me… AAAHAHAHGH! Craziness. I had fun. I did. I’ll probably go back. I’ve had more fun at our local events (Autumn Brew Review, Winterfest, etc.), but I think we can still learn from those crazy Wisconsinites. Details below the fold…
