Marshall's beer in This Land

[Nik]

I read about the trials and tribulations and was going to make a statement to that effect.  While it would have been nice for him to start there (I seem to remember reading that he had looked at places downtown---Eric, correct me if I'm off-base here---and they were cost-prohibitive), he's in a good location for moving his product to locations around town.  Close to 244, close to the BA where he can essentially move out from any direction.

Yeah, the capital investment that has been made at the current location will make it hard to move in the new future. Not to mention that location at 1st & Elgin is not going to be sold anytime soon. Regarding the transportation, correct me if I'm wrong, but he doesn't have to worry about that very much. That would be more the distributor. If the beer is ordered by customers, the distributor would go wherever the brewery is located to pick it up.

Out-of-state owner?  Wants far more for the property than it's worth?  It's a cool old building, reminds me of the Upstream Brewery in downtown Omaha hence why I've always thought a brewery/brewpub would be appropriate there and a draw to the Blue Dome.

If twe're talking about the red building, from what I've heard is it is filled with lightbulbs or something and the owner has plenty of cash and no desire to sell.

That's usually the story behind many desirable buildings.  What is reputed to be the old Ford dealership on the NE corner of Main & Cameron across from the Hunt Club is another example.  I've heard the owner is in his 90's and no desire to sell.  Some people claim they don't want to pay cap gains on a sale as a reason or using part of the building for storage or whatever.  The real problem seems to be somewhere between a hoarding issue and a pride issue of being afraid of selling an asset for too cheap.

That old dealership, by the way, has some great tile work in it.  It would be a really cool restaurant/bar or restaurant/retail/loft development.  I salivate every time I go past it.

It pisses me off when people do nothing with these properties for years and wait for the values to go up.  So many great things could be done with these properties now.

His new brew, El Cucuy has been said will be ready December 1st, if I'm not mistaken.  It's an India Black Ale, for those who like them.

I had two of them Saturday. Ahhh the memories.
I wish they would become a year round instead of a seasonal.

Purchase and store enough of them and problem solved.
