    I believe this is brewery #26

    The Vermont Brewers Association says Grateful Hands Brewing is opening this weekend in Cabot and will specialize in dark beers. Owner Ricky McLain will pour samples of his beers and sell containers called growlers on Saturday. His initial four offerings include an American brown ale called Time and an American stout called Courage. Grateful Hands is considered a nano-brewery because of the size of each batch of beer, 20 gallons. The Brewers Association says McLain expects to start off selling growlers from the brewery and at farmer’s markets and eventually start bottling.

    Anyone tried this yet? I drove by it and it looks like just a house with a keezer on the front porch.

    Very excited, though I'm not sure a giant logo reading GHB was the best choice for a beer company.
