Boy, has it been a busy week for beer fans. Earlier this week, we broke the news that two former Anheuser-Busch employees will be opening Urban Chetnut Brewery Co. later this year. Now, St. Louis Post-Dispatch’s Evan Benn’s got the scoop on another new brewery headed to town, this time by way of Chicago. Phil Wymore, head brewer over at Half Acre Beer Co., will be making his way west next month to open Perennial Artisan Ales with his wife and father-in-law here in The Lou. No word yet on where he’ll be located, but Wymore did tell Benn that he will be brewing “with the seasoned, adventurous craft-beer drinker in mind.” Mmm, sounds tasty.
Cheers!
