Lagunitas Our Own Bavarian-Style Doppel Weizen

In far-away 2006, in a beer hall in Philly, at the end of a long raod, we shared our first beer with a Friestat Bayern Brewer enharmonically named; Wolfgang. At stake, over a Prima Pils, was whether or not Lagunitas would purchase from him a new 80bbl brewhouse. it was a lot of money. Playing Silenus to my Brewery's chariot, together- with the benefit of the Pils- we forded the emotional-economic crevasse and commissioned thebrewhouse. Unforseeable at the time would be the need for even more brewing capacity today in extra-local 2011. So, for the sixth time in our short history, we lurch down that increasingly familiar road towards the new 250 barrel brewhouse. The actual installation, beginning in November, will bear a strong resemblance to a heart transplant, on an awake patient, performed on the backside of a galloping horse, or at very least in tow behind Dionysus trustworthy Silenusu. Some is good, more is better. The good news is; it's still us!
