I like it, ‘falls into that public-private partnership meme. So when does city hall set up the muni-tap at the Nburgh Brewery?
When does “city hall set up”? You know we need a “study” first Walt. – will the use of rain barrels result in a more equitable distribution of free beer to all city residents. However, surcharges on the brewery have already been determined. Will keep you posted.
