Sorry bout the huge delay in posting. It’s been crazy busy here at the brewery and we’re still fighting to catch up. We liked our new 30 bbl fermenters so much, we ordered two more. They should arrive in early December. Not sure how we’ll manage brewing enough beer to keep them filled… We’re also working to commission a “new” bottle filler and labeler. They will run about ten times as fast as our current system, which is sorely needed. We just finished adding roughly 1,000 sq/ft to the building in order to get us through the winter. So as you can see, we’ve had a lot of irons in the fire. The last of the Hundred Yard Dash will be leaving the brewery soon, and we are already looking forward to next year’s harvest. We are extremely happy with the beer, and with the response! We are working on our next seasonal, hoping to have it on store shelves by Christmas?!?

Just got our copy of Beer Advocate. If you’ve ever been out to the brewery, you’ll recognize the picture on the cover! Great bio on the brewery, and on the town that is Lucan. If you haven’t been out to the brewery, make sure to plan a trip.

Planning for BrauFest (June 4-5) is coming along well. Here's the outline: There WILL be camping available at the brewery. Weather permitting, we'll campfire Friday night – homebrewers bring beer to pass! Saturday we've added a bike ride from the brewery to the Laura Ingalls Wilder dugout site near Walnut Grove. 11AM departure, lunch at the dugout, then back to the brewery for beer and fun. Softball tourney all weekend, if you have a team email Mary. Street Dance Saturday night outside the BrauHaus which is about a block from the brewery. Should have a couple new beers to intro that weekend as well! It shouldn't be hard to beat last year's weather. Beer and food available all weekend, including a couple casks. If you've never been to Lucan, this is a great opportunity to grab a pint and tour our little slice of heaven!

Save the Date, June 5-6 is BrauFest here in Lucan! Open House here at the brewery; come check out the hopyard and barley patch. BrauHaus has karaoke Fri night, and Street Dance Sat night. If you've never been out, it's about a 2 block walk. Softball tourney at the park all weekend. Of course, great Brau Bros Beer available everywhere. We're still rehabilitating the Beer Garden here at the brewery; I'm not sure it will be ready for festing, but we'll keep you posted. It's a great opportunity to come out and see what's going on in Lucan, hope to see you here! We hope to have Old 56, the fire truck, up and pumping (beer) for the weekend. If you have any questions about the festival, just shoot me an email! dustin@braubeer.com

Heading to New Prague tonight to sample some beer at Fishtail Grill and Bar @7pm. This Saturday we'll be at Firkin Fest at the Gnome in St. Paul. Looks like we'll be bringing Double Dry-Hopped Sheephead and Elisha's Olde Ale. Should be a blast! We hope to have The Old 56 truck in house in the next week or two. After that, we'll try to get it ready for events this summer. Old 56 the beer is doing extremely well; can't keep any inventory! We hope to announce a new spring seasonal any day now. We're very excited about this one, it's something we've never done before. Maybe a collaboration brew?

Elisha's Olde Ale will ship soon in 750mL bottles, SD kegs already left the brewery. Nice article in the Sioux Falls Business Journal, http://siouxfallsbusinessjournal.argusleader.com/article/20100210/INSIDELOOK/100209041 -does a very nice job of describing the whole competition. Ring Neck Braun Ale is year round, so keep drinking it!

Rainwater Oak Aged Stout is officially released. So far, very positive feedback. http://captainsbeerblog.com/2010/01/10/brau-brothers-rainwater-vsod-oak-aged-stout/ It was just a single batch, so most of it is gone here at the brewery. Drop me a not and let me know if you're having trouble finding it. Also - on Feb 8, I'll be talking about homebrewing in Windom from 6:30 - 8:00pm. We'll talk how-to's and why-for's with some demonstrations. Maybe even sample a couple beers. Email Kris for details and sign-up.
