Thank You all for the Support
I just wanted to say I have literally been brought to tears this evening by all the love and support from all over the world via texts, calls, emails, FB & IG messages, and offers from other local breweries to help in any way. The support and love sent our way has been incredible and I am truly humbled and grateful!
Long story short, the building to the west of the taproom caught fire around 1:30pm Tuesday. After several hours and 60+ firefighters working in extreme cold and wet conditions they got the fire out around 6pm. The taproom did not sustain any fire damage, but did suffer considerable smoke and water damage and part of the west wall behind the taps was busted out in order to fight the fire next door.
I cannot say enough about how incredible the Tulsa Fire Department is and the job they did to save our building from catastrophic damage. People always say that firefighters and first responders are heroes and there is no denying that, but seeing them in action first hand was simply amazing and took the word hero to a whole new level for me. The citizens of Tulsa are incredibly lucky to have these brave badass men and women protecting us and risking their lives to keep us safe.
I also want to give a shout out to our staff, family, and friends that happened to be there, for jumping into action to do whatever they could to help support and get things buttoned up after it was all over for the evening. A special shout out to @tulsabrewer aka Tim, our off duty Tulsa fireman, for his work, communication, and coordination to support TFD where we could and to get everything taken care of! Tim is the guy behind the scenes who never gets the love and recognition for what he does, but deserves all the love!!! I am beyond lucky to get to work and do life with all these people and appreciate them more than they will ever know.
Luckily production will not be interrupted while we will figure out what to do next with the taproom. Thank you again for all the love and support and please send love, prayers, good vibes, or whatever you choose to firefighters and first responders for all they do!
