Sorry, No Dirt News This Week

5/25/2016

Whoa golly hot tamale has this been one heckin' dang of a week! Things got off to a hot start when we got our spanky-danky fresh-ass new taster glasses for when we serve up some tasty flights (which will happen eventually, I promise)! Then things got hot in a much more literal sense when we brewed some beer.
Picture
That's right.
​Yes indeedy, after going through so many hoops and hurdles that a bunch of you out there in Internet Land probably started wondering if we were kidding about the whole "intending to brew beer" thing,* we finally (finally!) fired up our kettles for real! We've got some details below, Q&A style, but for now you should probably just feast your eyes on these here photos so that you can get yourself properly riled up to feast your mouth on our beers:
Picture
It's showtime!
Picture
Picture
Water.
Malt.
Picture
Picture
Hops.
Yeast.
Picture
Wort? Wort!
Picture
Jimbo exuberantly shoveling spent grain out of the mash tun and definitely not getting a whole bunch of it in her boots, that's for sure.
Picture
Picture
Our heat exchanger and aeration stone.
Picture
While that does appear to be a Home Depot bucket full of Legos on the floor, the truth is much more boring.
Picture
Basking in the glory of our gravity reading (dear lord was this a sight for sore eyes/hands/backs).
What beers did you brew?
As we mentioned previously, we wanted to start with some one-off batches to fine-tune our equipment and processes before we start in on our flagships. So for our first forays into the wide world of beer, we went with Honey & Hops (IPA) and Bone Smasher (Session IPA).**

When will these beers be ready?
If the initial batches meet our Quality Standards, we hope to have beer out in the wild within a week or two. If they do not meet our Quality Standards, expect beer around the time that you no longer hear sobbing coming from our building. 

Will your taproom be open once that happens?
I wish! But, unfortunately, not yet. We're bummed too.

So... when WILL you be open to the public?
Good question! That's really up to the contractors working on the outside of our building and/or the building department, who has some sort of fixation on making sure that people can get in and out of our building safely. So in other words, we still can't say, but things are moving along out there, which is something. 

If I can't get them in your taproom, where can I drink these beers?
That's... also a good question, actually. We're gonna be draft-only for a while, so the most general answer is "bars and/or restaurants," but we haven't narrowed it down much further than that. I'll spare you the boring details as to why,*** but suffice to say we're gonna start schleppin' samples and makin' awkward sales calls as soon as we've surely got suds to sling! So rest assured - you'll know where our beer is pouring roughly as soon as we do.
Picture
* Hi Mom!
** We were briefly tempted to call one of them "First Draft." We resisted.
*** In short, we wanted to make sure we had beer (nearly) in hand before we started making a lot of promises about having beer available by a certain date. We've been a bit... overly optimistic about our opening timeline in the past, and we'd rather not look like chumps as a result of that.

Making Jimbo grain out, cold-hearted Jared.

PS: love the mash paddle? Wherever did you get that?

It really is one hell of a paddle. We need to get one of those display racks that people use for katanas so we can proudly hang our mash paddles on the wall somewhere
(as for making Jimbo grain out, I'm pretty sure she chose that over whatever equally-pleasant task I was taking care of at the time. There's plenty to go around)
