TV and the Cards (Day 14)

Read Now

This is a TV.  It is in the pub on the second floor.  It is not going to be there long.  Best see it now.  

Once the Cardinals finish the World Series it will disappear.  Magically... 

So last night we set up the TV’s.  Which is one thing, I am normally completely at odds with in a pub setting.  TV’s are conversations killers and it is my honest to goodness opinion that they have no place in a pub.  Pub’s are about drinking and conversation and putting on a TV is the best way to deter conversation.  Now having said that, I put a TV in the pub on both floors for the Cardinals games.  Let’s face it, when a new business is faced with two options.

  1. Put the TV on and have a good amount of business and 
  2. Don’t put the TV on and have 0 business.  


A person, such as myself, who had to move in with his parents to open the brewery and owes lots of money to a small local bank has little choice but to put the TV on.  If you can’t beat them, join them.  Now this isn’t the only reason.  I actually really do like the Cardinals and having them in the World Series is immensely great national exposure for our city and great for our city’s residents.   So it is with great City pride that we pump up the volume and let our great customers enjoy the game inside of their favorite brewery or maybe their second favorite brewery or even third.... doesn’t matter much to me as long as we are in there somewhere.

So this week, come on by and watch the games.  Sunday and Monday included if needed.  We will have some tasty eats and if you can’t stay for the game we will definitely fill a growler for you.

Now some of you may take issue with putting an item on this blog termed the 100 days in a shameless sort of caving to capitalism mantra but I did open a business and not a tumbleweed farm as experienced during the NLCS.

Cheers!

    Hello earthlings. I have been sent here to open a brewery. I hope you have time over the next year to check in from time to time and see our progress (or lack there of at times).  

    I look forward to helping you come along for the ride through this blog. For me, there is no better feeling than creating a place and a product that becomes part of peoples lives. I am focused, immensely passionate and hopeful that each of you one day will toast “To the Civil Life.”
