Soon. I’d like to hope maybe this weekend, but I’ll go buy cans of Marzen tonight anyway.

Here’s hoping the beer is as good as it was in its heyday! Miss me a good pint of Scrapper.

Excellent news.

Looking forward to tasting Stir Stick (stout) and Pothole (porter) again.

Their stout is amazing!

Agreed. It was one of my go-tos for several years.

The porter was good too but it seemed to only be available intermittently.

It was my go to for years. I don't drink much anymore, but I'd have another for old times sake.
