Wow, I'm glad to hear it. I finally found some Punk IPA last week and it wasn't bad at all.
But, I've always thought their beers were more U.S. suited and I think they'll do good here.
Guess you'll have to have a meet and greet at your place with a tour.

Don't forget where your kilt came from. I think I put a tracker in there somewhere.
I think one of those guys likes to go around buck naked anyway.

I think that's a good suggestion. I've been to Columbus a few times (even met Chris there) and they already have some great breweries there. So the more the merrier. :party:

BTW if you drink enough you really can't smell OSU all that much. So that's a bonus! ;)

That would have to be one heck of a wind to be able to smell Oklahoma State University!

An hour to an hour and a half for me. Though my surname is French, I have Scottish ancestry in the clan MacPherson. Pronounced MacFurrson, for there’s “no fear in MacPherson!” I can bring my clan tartan, but it’s just a scarf.

Here’s my label with the clan coat of arms:

Ya, I can make it to Columbus. And bring a Kilt. Or two.

Canal Winchester eh? That's past I70. That's like driving over the Mason-Dixon line LOL.

BrewDog in America

Post by BlackDuck »

So the location for BrewDog has officially been announced. And it will be in my home town of Canal Winchester. The location is only about a 5 minutes ride from my house. :hammer: Right now, the property is mostly one big corn field. The article says they want to complete construction by August of next year. They better break ground quickly. I'll update the thread with pictures as the place starts to build.
