2025 Happy hour zoom

[BarbarianBrewer]

If y'all are still BSing later, I might pop in when I get home. With the holidays, I have been neglecting my normal Saturday brewery.

I get it. You'd rather be with your real beer buddies than your imaginary ones. Still hurts, but I get it!

IKR... Kicked to the curb for real humans.

 

[Craigerrr]

We try so hard to be realistic too, it ain't easy being one's and zeros

 

[Zambi]

I think @Josh Hughes should wear those Christmas PJ's during the zoom

 

[Craigerrr]

Haven't we already been through enough?

 

[Sunfire96]

Roped into running post Christmas errands tomorrow. Not sure where I'll be around noon, but if I'm home I'll at least pop in and say hi!

 

[Donoroto]

Hey @Josh Hughes is it time for another quarterly brewer pick?

Yes it is. I need to find the jar…

Wow, I just opened up BF after about a month! Super busy getting ready to close up everything on 12/31.
I doubt I'll be able to join today as Saturdays are typically busy at the shop and I'm solo until 4.
This will be the 2nd last work day before closing and 12/31 is my last day!
2026 will be much more time friendly for me, so I hope to catch up more often.
Happy New Year to you all!
Cheers
Brian

Congratulations on your pending retirement. Although I expect more than a few of your customers are not so happy about your store's closing. But, it's good for us because we can see you more often.

I don't think it's closing. He just won't be there.

I got the same thing. I just got home from the beach, and I wanted to say hi before I left again. Having Zambi on would have been nice. Oh hell, oh well. Hi Zambi

Weird I started it at noon.

 

[Dave Y]

forgot about the noon start.

I don't think it's closing. He just won't be there.

I'm retiring after 15.5 years.
That means everything. The retail, the Brewery and selling the building.
The early plans were to just shut down the retail as the Brewery was turn key profitable and growing, but I decided I was ready and I dont want liability any longer.
It was a great run, I had a blast, and no regret, but on 1/1/26, the doors will be locked for good.
Cheers,
Brian
