Good for Jeff! He is also a graduate
of the Spring 2005 BJCP class - which he passed with a NATIONAL score,
BTW.
Does anyone know if Jeff is also the
OWNER, or just the head brewer?

Jeff also used to work at Northern Brewer
before he started working at Town
Hall. If you haven't met him, he's a
really nice guy. I wish him all the
best of luck with his endeavour.
I was talking with him about the brewery
a couple weeks ago and have a
little info. They will have a tasting
room for brewery tours, but it's not
going to be a brew pub. He said they'd
be brewing to sell to bars and
possibly liquor stores to start with.
