I made sure that he knew we weren't interested in just a tour... I told him we've already seen a few metric tuns of steel....(I threw in a pun). But, they will give a tour and samples on a weekday. He said the brewers are short staffed on Mondays, so Tues-Fri are the best days to sit in. He said depending on the brewers down-time, we can actually have discussions with the brewers. I'd have to see if I can get off...I suggest sometime next week. I called the GM again today to find out when the best days are to go.

I suggested we wait until the yahoos gawking at Amish people are not in the way. November would be great. I'm off Mondays.

I have seen enough stainless steel tanks to say a brewery tour is boring after the first tour. Now if you can get the head brewer to give the tour and not a PR talking head it could be interesting. In that case you could drop tour and just have an informal sit down with brewer. Thought I’d bump this idea.
