Wednesday Pub Night #50 - 8:30pm at Commonwealth Brewery

Back to the Pub Night home page


Hi there,

PubNight Number 50 - yet another reason to celebrate. This week we're heading to a brewery. It's been a while since we've been somewhere that really brews their own beer and since Zip City and Heartland are not allowed on our list, our choices were numbered. But, in the past few months, new breweries have been popping up all over. So, the first relatively new one that we'll head to is the Commonwealth Brewing Company.

Reasons to celebrate this week:

We'll be there around 8:30pm. Dan - don't forget to forward this one. We won't get much closer to your office.

See you tomorrow,

- stuart
