Meet Andy. It’s Andy’s lucky day.

Andy has been given front-page status for this day only for one reason: he is a pack mule. When you ooze excellence like Jeff, Joel and I, it’s easy to forget the little people that make Monday Night Brewery possible.

Though not technically a brewery, Blind Bat seems to have quite the head start on MNB. I was reading The Daily Catch today and found an interesting post on Blind Bat, a Long Island upstart focusing on “artisanal ales.”
