The taproom is closing, employees are loading tables and chairs back into the building, and Matt Yetter is now playing on the patio, and since the taps are turned off, we're drinking from growlers.

and then I played some Thelonious Monk, but I can't recall which. Good stuff, of course.

Everything's getting blurrier, but I must have had enough clarity to see her cuteness.

More of Zach Lozier, this time with Tanner Taylor in the frame, and lots of sunlight shining through.

Who's this? Who knows? He's amused by something, while Jason appears very happy at right.

And now, some more pictures!

More green-clad beer lovers getting their glasses filled by green-wigged Ginny.

something interesting happened when Matt Yetter took the stage later on, after the sun went down. Look at all that bright light inside, while we're cast in blue on the outside.

Things are getting fuzzier, with Paul Johnston, brewer, at right.

Pictures are coming down, perhaps due to heavy music vibrations, and Jason gets up on a ladder to correct this.

More of that light shining on the right side of the room, while a second shift keeps the glasses flowing.

Here's me, as captured by Jesse Brodd. All the great ales have caught up with me, and I'm basking in the bliss of my final musical selections.
