theeParticipantAl, you are a brave man for undertaking any sort of business relationship with Pac Rim’s previous owner. What a piece of work that guy is… The hop shortage didn’t put Pac Rim out of business, that guy did.
Good luck to you. Can’t wait to try yr beer and revist the old Rim.

RSMemberOkay, Socl, just don’t try to scale the rock wall to get there. And watch out for dog poop and bottle caps. :)

JimmyGMemberBig Al–get a porter on tap and I’ll be all yours!

ZenguyParticipantGuess I gott buy jammies then, but apparently not at Target cuz I can’t return them…lol. This thread is much more fun than that other one.

JoBParticipanteverything is more fun with beer:)
July 11, 2008 at 10:28 pm #628806
RSMemberYay!! Happy fun times with beer and no intense discussions/lessons about fighting oppression and recognizing privilege unless you politely ask for them and they are held outside with lots more beer!! Whew! I’m in! :)

soclwrkrinmotnMemberHappy fun beer? With cookies?
July 11, 2008 at 11:25 pm #628808
JoBParticipanti think we are jesting.. but i think a happy fun time with beer and no serious discussion sounds pretty good..
maybe it’s time for a party?
i still want to see what everyone looks like in their jammies:)

aunteesocialParticipantPlease oh please Al, I hope that you have painted the ladies room.
At PacRim it was gawdawful. And the men’s room had that well… men’s room smell. And then they changed the b-rooms to unisex, anyway. I hope you are nice to the ladies there and provide us with a decent place to rest a minute and light enough to put our lipstick on. And please take that rug/mat out. It smelled funny too.
I hope you took off the cheesy wine bottle wallpaper trim. You did, didn’t you?? I mean, really.
All that aside- alot of people are excited about the new owner and new (sounds delicious) beer and seeing some familiar faces. A pretty sizable group of regulars went pub-less for a long time. I think there will be campers on the sidewalk equipped with growlers! (And I’m not talking about that possum guy).
Whereas the old Rim was virtually unknown, I think with the community from WS Blog, and the up and coming art scene in White Center, all will be well.
You did peel off that wine bottle wallpaper, yes??
Cheers!!!

BigAlMemberJimmyG – We’ll launch our porter this fall!
aunteesocial – good news!! The wine wallpaper is gone, both bathrooms are painted, the mens room is clean, and the rug/mat is gone! My wife, Noelle, is the General Manager and she will make sure the place is lady friendly. We are even adding more purse hooks under the bar :)
Cheers!

kateMemberWhite Center Heart Big Al!
Have fun with the camping out, though you might not be the only ones in the neighborhood with a bedroll. (voluntarily anyway.)

BayouMemberI can easily stumble home from there so I’m very much looking forward to tasting the new brews.
*Growlers anxiously swinging in each hand*

ZenguyParticipantBayou, you and I can hold each other up on the way home. I can barely wait…open, open, open.

BayouMemberBig Al’s website is finally up, although it doesn’t say much other than “Opening early- August, 7th 2008” http://bigalbrewing.com/
Bring on the brews!
August 5, 2008 at 11:59 pm #628815
RSMemberearly- August 7th? So what, 6, 7 am? Sounds good to me!
I think we should all have some WSB Forum Flair to identify each other when we all finally break down Al’s door to get to the beer. :)
August 6, 2008 at 12:10 am #628816
JanSParticipanthehehe…well, beer has a lot of grain in it’s making…does that pass for breakfast?
August 6, 2008 at 12:11 am #628817
JenVMembercome on guys, show some restraint….remember when Zippy’s ran out of food the first day due to the WSB’ers? More tragic is to run out of beer….especially before I get there!
August 6, 2008 at 12:20 am #628818
RSMemberDon’t worry Jen, we’ll hide some growlers for you under our bar stools. Tragic if you don’t get there in time, but great for the new business owners! Horray for White Center!
August 6, 2008 at 12:35 am #628819
JoBParticipantJenV..
i don’t drink beer.. you can have mine:)
i think it’s past time for a meet up… would love to make it a WSB party.
August 6, 2008 at 5:46 pm #628820
BigAlMemberOops, it just supposed to say August 7th :) We are opening at 3pm and I look forward to meeting you all!
We should have a full site up in a few days.
Going to go fix website now….
Cheers!

RSMemberThat sounds great Al! Too bad I’ll be out of town until Sunday. :( Hey you WC WSBers, don’t drink all of Al’s beer before Sunday!!
August 6, 2008 at 9:16 pm #628822
ZenguyParticipantSo when are we doing a WSB night at Big Al’s?
August 6, 2008 at 9:34 pm #628823
BayouMemberI just washed my growlers last night so I’m ready!
