Greetings!
Happy Friday the 13th!  Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day, along with Happy President's Day - Happy Black History Month - Happy Heart Month, Happy Dental Health month - Happy Grapefruit month, man, who would think that the shortest month of the year could be so jam packed with crazy holidays!  Whatever your pleasure - we hope its happy! 
 
We are writing today to tell you about some TEMPORARY changes in growler refills and retail that will begin STARTING MONDAY FEBRUARY 16th. And to announce some new customers ( yes NEW customers in February - way to go Blake!)  And to keep you up to date with all that is going on around here.

Construction and Retail Changes
Starting Feb 16th - Retail Entrance and Parking is around the Back of the Building              click here for photos
About 2 weeks ago we started an extensive construction project that will increase our facility from 3,000 sq ft to 5,000 sq ft.  We have taken over the space to the left that was once Auto Diagnostics.  We are in the process of tearing down the cinder block wall and office space that is in that new space, along with the existing offices and storage space in our current space.  The big plan is the open up the whole facility - build approximately 1,000 sq feet of retail space across the front of the two spaces, and put about the same amount of office space above the new retail space.  If you have been inside the brewery, Todd's old office and Beth & Blake's old office (if you could call it that?) will all disappear.  The inside will be opened up completely from end to end.
 
We are at the point in construction that the current retail space and bathroom area need to be demolished.  So...starting Monday, you will find the retail space tucked inside the back door of the brewery.  There will be parking available out back too, and plenty of signs to lead you there.  We will still have a small assortment of retail items available - though some will be packed away and taken out on request (to keep as much as clean as we can).  Growler refills will still be available - as will new growlers etc.  But it will not be "as glamorous" as before. 
 
We weighed out the option of closing retail/refill versus this plan and decided that it would be worth a shot to make sure we kept our loyal refill customers happy.  So, bear with us during the upheaval.  The project is moving on nicely and things should only have to be this way for about a month (we hope).  We will have signs out to direct you where to go- so just follow the signs!

Steve & Sues Par-Tee Freeze on West Main St in Hyannis is open on Saturday and Sunday of this weekend..ok so they don't sell beer - but this is a big indication - at least for the Marcus family - that spring is on its way!   
Cherry Porter....
there are still a few bottles left! 
 Porter & Cherries are a match made in heaven, so we have paired them up for you as a special beer for Valentines Day.  Similar to our other specialty beers, this one will only be available in champagne bottles..and while supplies last. (I believe we are shooting for close to 200 bottles) It's just the right amount of cherry, balanced nicely with the chocolate / roasted flavor of the porter.  Yum!  It's bound to become a Valentine's Day favorite! $12 per bottle
 
Starting Friday Fe*BREW*ary 6th..
Available until its gone!
