I can safely say that
1) I have never heard of 4-Way Market
2) I have never heard of anyone on the Nashville Craft Beer boards talk about 4-Way Market

Did you all go in?

Hell yes we went in. And he may not be kidding, the selection was incredible. And yes, we bought more beer too.

Sadly, I left with yet more beer to take home.

For the fourth year in a row I am blessed to have been able to spend time with my Borg brothers and sisters. If you can find a way to meet up locally with your Borg friends,please do so as it is extremely good for your soul.
Special thanks to Chuck (Swenocha) for giving his time and expertise this week. He truly made this trip extraordinary.
Jody, Donna and Sharon really worked hard to keep us on line.
Jeff, Chris, Steve, John, Chuck and Swen are all excellent brewers and excellent people!
We come from different backgrounds, and are different people but have a common love and enjoyment for beer and each other and I am grateful for the friendship.
I also excelled in aggravating the Shyte out of them all which is what I planned to do.
Thank you to all my Borg family for this gift the last 4 years.


And thanks for the hug Jody (cuz Jeff is such a sharing guy)

Sean Jewett (http://www.eastnashbeerworks.com) says: It was a pleasure to host your group Chuck, thank-you for including us on the tour. Days like yesterday are why I love this industry. Cheers!

I made it home. It was a great week, as usual. Thanks for the memories everyone. Oh, and thanks for the beer.

Even though I wasn't able to make it to Nashville with you guys I'm grateful this community has really brought us all closer and I'm going to do whatever I can to make it to the meet up next year!

~Cheers

Yes Swen, it was a great trip and I really appreciate all you've done to make us feel at home for setting everything up.

Leigh, you're always welcome!

Thanks guys, it was great. You are nice people and fine brewers. I really think the best beers I drank this week were brewed by Borg. East Nashville and Bootleg were great stops.
You guys even helped John and I get over our shyness. Our new found confidence let us go out and support the local economy (Every Night)
I think Jeff is coming out of his shell too.

Glad we could help out there John! Jeff and Sean were great hosts as far as their facility visits, interesting info from Bootleg Biology and very solid lineup at East Nashville Beer Works. Again another great trip that went by way too quickly, but we are still stretching it out in Cincy on the drive home with visits to Rhinegeist and Morlein today.

It was a great week with great folks who are awesome brewers. Being the least beer knowledgeable person of the group, I made sure to soak up what I could and as in the last 3 years, learned a lot. The tours were EXCELLENT (even the non beer tour at JD ) and Chuck did an AWESOME job lining things up for us as the "Nashville host".

And we added new folks to the travelling Borg that made things even funnier.

We even had time to drink some beer.

CHEERS

Hmm... might have to open one of these this weekend...

Yazoo announced their plans for their new campus. Unfortunately for me, it's in Madison, TN, which is a northern suburb of Nashville. As I live 20 miles south of Nashville, that won't be convenient for the semi-regular taproom visits I've enjoyed since 2004, but the 6 acres of riverfront property will give them a lot of room to grow, hold festivals, and make this a destination. Linus apparently really likes the New Belgium campus in Asheville. This land, though 1/3 the size of the NB location, will still give them room to build a great place from the ground up and increase production from their current 24,000 barrel per year output.

Good news for them. So, still only 1 location planned? And, have you gotten any more info who will occupy the current place? I think you said it was still going to be a brewery.
Maybe there's another trip to Nashville to be planned in the near future!
