Updates from Barley John’s

By on May 28, 2009in brewpubs

Big things happening over at Barley John’s! First of all, for you Rosie’s lovers:

Rosies Old Ale has been transferred and has only to be carbonated before release. Become a fan of our pub (on Facebook) or join our mailing list for an official release date. The barrel samples were fantastic!

Second, the long awaited fermenters have arrived.

The fermenters arrived from our friends at St. Elias Brewing in Soldonta, Alaska. Hand unloaded from the truck to our basement over the Memorial Day weekend – no small task given our size and equipment limitations! Things couldn’t have been smoother thanks to the kind help of Andre, Dan, Jim and Mark.
