Two Girls and a dream
I have been dreaming about owning a brewery or restaurant for a long time. Maybe it was the relentless winter, maybe it was discontent or maybe it was seeing my two daughters start to spread their wings; something got me to take action on this dream this spring.
After coming up with several potential brewery names I settled in on Shalooby Loofer Brewing, stealing the nicknames from each of my daughters. The initial plan was to buy a small nano-brewing system (1/2 barrel) and begin brewing in my basement before going commercial. Well, as the saying goes, go big or go home :) In a short period of time I have a property under contract and a larger brewing system on order (1 barrel).
