From East End Brewing:
Then on Wednesday we get the call that we're going to have Senator Bob Casey out the the brewery for a tour, a taste, and (most importantly) a press conference about some new legislation that will give Small Brewers some tax relief on the Federal Excise Tax we all pay... and he's coming Thursday! Luckily, we were able to bring a few other Small Brewers into it on short notice, and lend our collective voices to the growing support for this legislation.
The tour happened during an active brew day (we actually did get some work done last week!), so you're seeing him react below, to Nordy climbing out of the Mash Tun after giving it a thorough cleaning. (This always seems to shock people, but it's really the only way to clean it properly.)
Senator Casey actually bought that Growler of BigHop he's holding in that photo...allegedly for his staffers to enjoy after the long drive back home to Scranton. But who can say...he seemed to enjoy the sample I poured him out of the fermenter.
