Good to see another brewpub open.
always excited to hear about new breweries in the area. i've been getting back to LBC more recently and i'm enjoying the heck out of it. i've been a mug club member for years, but hadn't been a frequent visitor. really love their pils and hop hog.
I stopped at the JoBoy on Tuesday. THe had their Manheim Red on tap, and that's all. They only brew in 15 gallon batches, and are overwhelmed by demand. They normally also have an IPA and a dark beer. They hope to eventually rotate a seasonal. As soon as they can afford it, they are going to get a bigger brewer.
Their BBQ is excellent BTW. The menu is authentic and a perfect excellent example of restraint. Their creed seems to be "Keep it to the size where you can guarantee quality".
