From Fulton:
In celebration of the 300th batch at our Minneapolis brewery, we decided to brew a one-time only beer for our Garage Series. And since so many of those 300 batches have been IPAs, why not celebrate with an IPA? Batch 300 is built on a base of Weyermann Pilsner malt, and heavily hopped from start to finish with Mosaic, one of our favorite new American hop varieties. At 74 IBU and just under 7% ABV, Batch 300 will delight your palate without wearing it out.
Batch 300 is now available on draft at select Twin Cities bars and restaurants, and will be on tap and in growlers at our taproom startingtomorrow, 11/6. Get some while you can - Batch 300 can only be made once!
WHAT'S HAPPENING AT THE NEW BREWERY?
Two months have already passed since we signed our lease and closed on our loan for our new production brewery in Northeast Minneapolis. While we're still many months away from brewing beer, things are starting to happen. The first thing we did was move our warehousing in, which includes empty kegs, growlers, and some boxes of miscellaneous homebrewing holdovers from Pete's garage. We've also moved into the offices - yes, we finally have real offices for the first in Fulton's four + year history! Aside from that, the first two months have mostly been continued construction planning, up until this week.
In brewing, having the right floor is critical, and once your equipment is placed, you don't have a chance to do it over. This week, our contractors started jackhammering away at the nearly 6,000 square feet of concrete that will be removed and re-poured with proper slope, load bearing capacity, and drains. The new concrete will be epoxied to ensure that it's easy to clean and can stand up to the rigors of production brewing.
Once the floors are done, we'll be off to the races with all sorts of plumbing and electrical work to be completed before our equipment starts to arrive later this winter.
