Hello again! I know y'all are anxiously awaiting another 1,500 words about flooring, but that ain't the case this time around (partly but not entirely because we're done with the floors. For now. Hopefully. Maybe). After a small hurdle early on (we won't bore you with the details, but suffice to say it involved lawyers and the possibility of more town-hearing-related production delays), we had us a busy as heck week!
For starters, we received some goodies from the good folks over at Keg Solutions and now we got us somewhere to put our beer (once it exists)!

This is some of them. And we'll need to order a shitload more (possibly two shitloads) in the near future.
What's more, our bar got delivered! Admittedly, it hasn't been assembled just yet so it's mostly just some stacks of bar components sitting in the brewery, but still! This place is startin' to look downright habitable*.
See that pile of stuff off to the right? That's the bar. And that mysterious lump of linoleum in front of it? You'll just have to wait and see! (i.e. read the next paragraph)
Get ready to sip/swill/spill some suds all up on them chevrons
But wait, I have more things to say! With the generous help of our resident** wood enthusiast T-Bone (who, incidentally, built that bar that I was just talking about), we got us a cold room! Or rather, we have the frame of the cold room, but the rest of it is just insulation (and how hard can that be to install?). Now we got somewhere to put all those dang kegs that we keep tripping over!

Unofficial company motto of the moment #16: "It may not look like much at the moment, but really all that's left is little details."
And - to bring this up one more dang time*** - our hearing for our pouring permit is next week! We expounded on the details a bit last week, but in short: if you'd like to come out and speak in support of us pouring pints (particularly if you're a resident of this fine city), we would greatly appreciate**** it! The hearing is on Monday, January 25th at 6:30 PM in Everett City Hall, 2nd floor, room 29. So come on out, and make sure you say hi before and/or after!
*Assuming your definition of "habitable" includes "cluttered with construction debris."
**Assuming your definition of "resident" includes "lives 150 miles away."
***Well, we'll probably tell you about the results; be they glorious, life-affirming victory or brutal, soul-crushing defeat.
***If you're thinking "they really should buy me a beer for coming out to speak at this boring-ass meeting," that thought has crossed our minds. But, perhaps more importantly, the thought that crosses our minds immediately after that is "...but that's illegal in like three different ways so we can't do that."
