Saw an article stating that Vavrick will be in charge of the beer programs for the Publican restaurants. Pretty exciting to have him back in Chicago.
Vav has risen from his internment in the nightmarish dairy hellscape of WI back to the quaint town of Chicago! Praise to the great and powerful imbiber! Vav is a cool guy but honestly why should I care where he works? (other than the fact he is often in close proximity to great beer that I would like to drink) He should, and clearly does, live and work wherever he wants to.
Hm. Octopi is also losing a talented brewer to Door County. Wonder if they just tapped talent to get things up and running.
Door County has such potential right now. Looking forward to the next couple of years to see what they create.
Only met the guy once. But following him, you know he's in beer for the right reasons. He loves beer and wants everyone else to as well. I'm in the burbs, but I'm happy he's back in Chicago. Makes sense he'd come back to a place like the publican.
