Just last week we told you about four other brewing companies that were issued liquor licenses, though we have few details about any of those. (read it)

First test batch of Foggy Noggin!

Getting ready to fire up the kettles for the first test batch of Bit O'Beaver.  Huge ceremonial gala, everyone is here - Matthew, Stephanie and Nicky.  Good thing we added the rail on the stairs so there are no injuries today.

Passed Our Final Inspection

Remember the date - December 22, 2009.  This is the date Foggy Noggin Brewing passed our final building permit inspection.  We are good to go and ready to start brewing our beers.  Grand opening TBD - late Feb or early March 2010.  Stay tuned.
