    It’s a verbal menu, so it’s not on paper. It’s got the standard offerings: chicken tenders (standard choice of my 5 y/o), PB&J, grilled cheese, and buttered noodles (my 7 y/o’s favorite meal, which immediately lifts a restaurant to near legendary status in her mind). I actually called before going in because I knew the regular menu wouldn’t work for them. Throw in the wi-fi, and this could now be a regular family lunch/brunch option.

    I’ve been coming to FR for the better part of the past year under the impression that they only have the advertised menu (which I love BTW). Now that I know they have a kids menu; I see my visits increasing even more.

    Regarding the anniversary party this Thursday 3/8, being it's my birthday and the only day I don't have plans ironically I definitely plan on attending. Tickets go on sale at the door at 5 I read. However, if you are already in the building prior to 5, can you purchase a ticket a few minutes beforehand? I'm sure there will be a designated area to purchase from. Looks like I answered my own question. Any insight into the guest draft offerings from Corridor, Lil Beaver, etc?

    We are open all day so you can come whenever you want. Tickets don’t have to be purchased if you don’t want. It is just that is a good value and you get raffle
    Tickets, glass etc 3 5oz pours of our beers-

    Ghost Tropic sales at 6pm in the front corner. Doubt line really starts till 530-545-

    As for the guest taps it is Squeeze it from Corridor
    Whole Lotta Wonderful from Lil Beaver.

    I’ll update Scratch and On Tour guest taps soon.

    So sad I can't make it to the anniversary. Have a stupid root canal at 4:30. I'll see you all at the next share though.

    Has anyone seen Snoochies around yet? I'm following on beer menus but don't see anything in the 'burbs yet.

    A growler of Toro is a hell of a lot cheaper than an anesthethioligist... I'm just saying....

    I'd love to figure out a way for insurance to pick up the tab on the Toro (minus a small co-pay, naturally).

    Ok guys! Time for an update!

    Anniversary is Thursday!!! The taplist will be insane! Can’t wait for everyone to come out-

    Ghost Tropic can release is Saturday at 11am- the Saturday releases are by far the easiest to execute at open. Also the mobile canner could only do today or Friday and as of 6pm last night GT was still fermenting! If we canned it there was a chance it could have exploding cans! Changing can releases will not be what we want and moving all to Saturday gives us the extra time to make sure the beer is 100% ready!

    Sorry for any inconvenience but in my mind I’ll get to see most of you both days- we will do some special taps for Saturday too to make up for the day change!

    Ghost Tropic still be ready to go
    On draft at 6pm Thursday AND to make up for it we added what? MORE HOPS-

    More Hops than the last Snoochie is in this GT!!!

    Thanks for all your support!
