Naked City Brewing has a location!!!!!

[Brewmeister Jeff]

That is way cool my friend!!!!

You must let us all know when the GRAND DADDY of ALL OPENINGS is so we can all get out there and christen the pub the right way!

Congrat again!!

 

[drost]

Congratulations Don! You're gonna rock!

Can't wait to see pictures.

 

[Seabee John]

Lets all just hope he remembers us "little people" after he makes it big! Congrats Don, I wish you the best, and I'll do what I can to get out there...SWMBO's been begging for a trip.

 

[Klainmeister]

Wow, I'm fully impressed and wish you the best of luck. My father runs a company not to far from there so let us all know when you're open and I'll be sure to send him and group of his partners to help lighten their wallets on some fine brew. I might fly into Seattle once I am done here in Deutschland, so you might see me too! Congrats again!

Cheers!

I'm down in Seattle on a semi-regular basis (yes, Seattle is "down south" for some of us ), and will have to drop in when you're up and running.

Hearty congrats!

+1 on being jealous...

 

[Rhoobarb]

Man, oh man. tha is awesome! I now have another reason to visit Seattle. Good Luck and congrats!

 

[Grimsawyer]

That is so awesome! SWMBO has been begging to get up to seattle for some time. She wants to see pike's fish market, spend some time in the space needle and hit the underground city... I've kinda wanted to see all that jazz but what's really in it for me? BEER YOU SAY!?!?!? Maybe I can help you brew when we're in town. Hell, I'll clean out a hot, humid, hot, messy, and hot mash tun and sanitize anything you want me to sanitize for the opportunity to help ya brew up some killer brew. And I would gladly do it on my vacation.... err, the SWMBO's and my vacation! HA!! I can't wait to see the date when you open! My birthday is in August and the SWMBO's is in September. Maybe I'll buy myself a birthday present and her one as well in the form of a vacation to go somewhere we've been meaning to go anyway(and to do some beer sampling!!!! :rockin: ) Can't wait to see a post of an opening date my brewing buddy! LIVE THE DREAM MY BROTHER!!!

 

[tranceamerica]

can't wait!

seattle friggin' rocks. :rockin:

Not a lot of progress on the space yet. Did get it cleaned up, finished the south wall and posted coming soon signs in the windows. Our construction drawings are complete and we go to permit on Wednesday. If approved, the real construction will start shortly.

Here are some updated photos.









I'll update more often once we get into the heavy duty build out.

Cheers

Hey Topia - I got my Naked City shirts in the mail on Friday and they look GREAT!! I can't wait to be the first in Maryland to sport the NCBC shirts.

At the rate we're moving, I may have to fly the Bee Cave Brew Haus construction crew out to Seattle just to make sure we can make our projected August 1 opening date.

No problem Mike. That way if/when I finally make it to Anchorage, I'll feel right at home.

 

[McKBrew]

That rocks Brewtopia, I am planning on being one of your first customers.

 

[Brewpastor]

OK, is August 1 a sure enough deal that I can buy plane tickets to come out and celebrate the opening?

 

[ShortSnoutBrewing]

Man, I'm getting thirstier and thirstier by the minute!!

 

[vfinch]

My wife plays roller derby and her team was just in Seattle for a quick scrimmage with the local gals... The next time is happens I'll have to tag along to check out the new pub, congratulations!

Don't book anything yet. I'll feel alot better once we get our permits and construction actually begins. I'll continue to update this thread as we progress.

It'd be great to have you out.

 

[EvilTOJ]

Yea man, keep us posted! I'm sure me and the SWMBO would be glad to come up and drink ourselves blind in your fine establishment then sleep it off in one of the many fine hourly rate motels in the area

 

[9/9]

For non-beer related reasons, it looks like I will be in Seattle around August 6th. I hope you are open then so we can stop by!

 

[RichBrewer]

I'm excited for you Topia! I can't wait to see the progress.

 

[Brewtopia]

Well, we finally broke ground in the space! The concrete cutter came out yesterday and made the cuts for the plumbing and trench drain in the brewery. Today we rented a jack hammer and went at it. We should finish clearing the trenches by tomorrow. Man it was a bear! There are places where there is a 4'' slab sitting on an 8-10 inch slab! We're managing to get through it though.

Plumbing and electric begin early next week!

Here are a few pics.

Cut lines are marked


Day 1 - all cuts complete


Day 2 - clearing the trenches


4'' slab on top of another slab

[arturo7]

That is some serious work.

Every drop of sweat will surely be refected in the quality of your brew.

Cheers

I need an excuse to head north.

 

[ohiobrewtus]

That actually looks like a lot of fun (and hard work). I can't wait to see more pics. Keep them coming, Don!

 

[brauhaus]

cool, keep us posted! awesome!

 

[Brewtopia]

Well, we finished the trenching and hauled off the concrete. Plumbing and electrical will start this week!
