I love this place so much. And I sure hope my boys will too. As I always tell them, please be nice to the plants. Protect them like you protect each other.
Happy Earth Day.

Views from a pit stop in New River Gorge National Park on my way to Virginia to check out some equipment. Hiked a few trails and chowed on some PB+J by the river while contemplating what it means for this project to land some brewing gear. More real. More freedom. More exploration. A step further into the unknown.

I ended up putting a deposit down on a nice lil' setup in need of a new home. It'll make its way to us in about a month which feels slightly scary as we still dont have a spot yet (the basement unit fell through). Needless to say, the location hunt is on. Currently accepting any and all leads 🤞

Just a lil spent grain honey foccacia for ya. As we gear up for market season, we got to brewing Tiaca - our little golden lager with Chilean honey. Just as we were graining out, we dialed up the sammie specialists to see if they'd be down to clown with making some bread from our spent grain. They were. They did. And a spur of the moment snacky was born.

Along with spent grain from the beer, they tossed in a little dab'll do ya of the Chilean Tiaca honey. You kiddin' me? Guys.

There was a bit too much spent grain for focaccia making so the remainder went to feed Jack's chickens to make for some happy, chubby cluckers.

We're getting ideas for market season. So far, you'll be able to see what we're up to at the on Wednesdays, on Thursdays, and on Sundays. If you got other places you want us to be, just say the word.

Behind these doors is a basement; an underground space where this idea is beginning to take shape. Like how a seed becomes a sapling or mycelium morphs into a mushroom. Slowly, but assuredly the foundation forms beneath the surface. Unlikely to be seen unless a little digging is to be done. Occurring at a natural pace unlike the one we've invented here above ground.

It's early. The seed has just been sown. Much can still happen. One day, I hope to welcome you to our decidedly humble underground space. But for now, I'm just grateful to those who've been willing to do things a little bit differently to get the idea planted and give it a chance of growing into something. Thanks for being here.
