It's a short article, but the photo can only be described as lush:

Where can I get one of those shirts ?
I would make a great large walking billboard.

The shirts are available for purchase anytime the brewery is open. They have several for sale in the main lobby area. One of the on duty brewers will usually be available for a quick sale.

On a related note, I heard Marshalls is expanding into an attached building. Sounds like it's still going strong.

Well, sure it is.  Conan, myself and several others do enough sales to keep it going...

In all seriousness, though, I'm glad to hear it.  Couldn't happen to a nicer or more hard-working guy.

I had a Atlas IPA last night. Helping to fight for the cause of good beer everywhere.

I'll drink to that!

Eric needs to chime in here, the clerk at the Country Club Plaza liquor store told me Saturday there's a new black IPA coming August-September from our beloved brewer.

Yes Conan, This is true, El Cucuy, a Black IPA will probably be out sometime in August.  It will be limited release in 22oz. bottles only.  We have not brewed it on the big system yet, as we are still putting the final touches on the recipe.  Black IPA is a relatively new style of beer that has come on to the craft brewing scene in recent years.  The Black part of this beer strictly denotes the color and doesn't have a lot of roasted or chocolatey characteristics like porters or stouts.  El Cucuy's hop profile will be significantly more pronounced and aromatic than Atlas IPA making it a bit more on the aggressive side.  El Cucuy will be the first in a series of beers that will have a completely different look in terms of label design as compared to our core and seasonal brands.  The name for the beer was inspired by Latin American superstition.  El Cucuy is the Latin American version of the Boogie Man whose name alone strikes fear in children and some adults.  Be good or the Cucuy will get you!

Thanks to everyone for all of your support!!!

Eric, ever thought about moving your brewery downtown?  Definitely understand your current location but it would be awesome to have a brewery like yours downtown, specifically at the corner of 1st & Elgin in that old brick building..  

I'll keep drinking my fair share of Marshall's, especially Atlas Pale Ale.

You apparently don't know what a PITA it was to get the place he's in now built.  Nightmare after nightmare.  I sure wouldn't want to do that twice.

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.

That and very good access for trucks coming and going with minimal disruption to area traffic.

And, right next to the railroad tracks.  Think BIG.

The Examiner has a home brewing writer here in Tulsa:

http://www.examiner.com/x-16115-Tulsa-Home-Brewing-Examiner

She not a prolific writer, and she does specialize in the home brewing aspect since she owns a business devoted to it.

But I had an errant thought - perhaps one of the folks here on the forum would be interested in writing about beer since the Examiner also recognizes 'craft brewers'.  Is that the same as a home brewer?  I dunno.

If anyone is interested, you can contact the Examiner directly, or get in touch with me and I'll put in a word with one of the editors.  Full disclosure - I do get paid a head hunter's fee.  It ain't much, but it'll pay for some beer (if only I could drink it.)

Understand.  It would be cool though.

.  Be good or the Cucuy will get you!

Mmmm.  Therefore I shall not be good!
