Out running errands today, Hubs and I stopped by this place.....
First trip down the mountain to a tiny microbrew called Coal Breaker Brewery housed in an old Catholic church and rectory near Laurel Run outside of Wilkes-Barre.
If you know coal mining history you know about the LAUREL RUN Underground Mine Fire. That one predates your Centralia Underground Mine Fire Judy by 47 years.
Here's your words of wisdom for the day......never buy a house that sits over coal mines because some day they will be abandoned and subside or some fool will locate a dump in an abandoned strip mine and another fool will cause a fire in the dump to ignite a vein of coal and that sucker will burn until forever.
Just sayin'.....
Anyway, back to the Microbrewery....
They are awaiting their pub license so just have a tasting room and you can fill your growlers for home enjoyment.
Interesting brews and Hubs filled 2 Growler-ettes today.
Beer brews are named for the history of coal mining in the region.
5 Whistle Wheat
Black Diamon Dark IPA
Olde King Coal Stout
They have a Chocolate and Cherry Porter concoction in the fermenter tanks now.....sounds interesting to me!
There's a write up on them HERE.
Like 'em on Facebook HERE
They hope to be open with a kitchen before the end of the year.
We'll be back....
