Twenty years now, where'd they go
Twenty years, I don't know
I sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they've gone
- Bob Seger

I signed my lease to this shop May 2006. It has now been twenty years since I started a homebrew shop in Dubuque. Today I locked up for the last time. But what a trip it's been!
The only reason it lasted this entire stretch was all the enthusiastic homebrewers and w**e makers that Dubuque had to offer. That includes every one of you! Because of you, I have no regrets and would do it all over again. And, because of that, I offer you my most sincere THANK YOU!!
As I now enter the next chapter, retirement, I truly hope each of you continue with this great lifestyle we have shared for so long. Please stay in touch and let me know what's brewing.
For those that noticed, I hung this clock up when I opened and never installed batteries. It has stayed set at 5:00 behind my counter for 20 years. Today, I it was the last thing I removed and took home.
Take Care and Brew On!!!
