    I swear I read they are projecting 8k bbls in 2013. Mind boggling.

    Wow that is impressive, where would that put then in terms of size? Schell, summit, cold spring surly indeed? How close am I to the ranking?

    Small, but big? Summit/Schell 100k bbl give or take. Surly, maybe 30k bbl. 1.5 years old at 8k, very impressive. I don't know what the brew pubs do, but Indeed is probably the second largest, non regional brewer in the state behind Surly.

    Anyone know what surly's capacity will be when they are in their new home? Schell and summit will both be at near 250k after expansions this summer

    What will be indeed maximum output at their current location?

    Well, I brewed about 3bbl in 2012 so I'm still impressed.

    I agree I was on their website remindding myself what they brew and some of the beers hardly said what style they are. Just drop the over thought clever names and tell us what's in the bottle.

    I went to northbound yesterday and liked the atmosphere. Just had the honey what and thought it was merely fine. The food was a mixed bag, my beef sandwich was excellent the onion rings were odd, not sure how I felt about them, my where's fried chicken and the fries were Pretty bland I thought. All in all I should go back, but doubt I would pick it over town hall

    Pour Decisions might be the most underrated taproom in the cities. Went there for the first time a couple weeks ago and was really impressed. I loved the fact that you feel like you're sitting at a friends garage bar, but bigger.

    Otherwise Dangerous Man is the top of my list.
