Well you can't get upset over something you have no control over. This is what I keep telling myself. Yesterday at approximately 11:50 am the universe decided to give us a power surge. Transformer failure (apparently they are more than meets the eye) Everything in Bier One, the brewery and my house went nuts. Some lights in the pub that blew I will fix today. Unfortunately the brewery took most of the hit. My brew panel was smoking. Multiple VFD's fried and possibly other things that I haven't diagnosed yet. So Luke won't be able to brew beer for a while, possibly weeks. My compressor is not kicking on which makes it impossible to clean kegs for kegging beer. The house is a little chilly cause my heat pump is not working. Hopefully I can possibly fix it today but not holding my breath. That's most of the bad news which is pretty sh*tty. Here is the good news Coolers are working, beer will be cold and the food will be hot! And we'll be open as usual today. So suck on that universe!
