It’s was really great to be a part of the Rohrbach grand opening. I attended with my wife and brother in law (pictured with yours truly on the right below) There was an ecstatic crowd there and Mayor Duffy made a inspiring speech referring what a great addition to the city/public market neighborhood the brewery is and the Mayor even mentioned Rochester’s rich brewing history. This area on Railroad Street is really looking great with all the new development down there. The brewery itself is really cool with it’s timber beam construction and brick walls packed full of big shiny brewing vessels and big bags of crystal malts. There were several sampling bars including food samplings and the beer was really flowing. John Urlaub has really done a great thing for Rochester so if you didn’t make it down there yet make sure you do! Festivities continue on Saturday from 10am-4pm…
The new brewery looks incredible…the beer is amazing, i was ready to set up camp the opening night under a vat of Scotch Ale! If you missed this you missed out.
