August 15 Saranac Brewery

August 15 Saranac Brewery, originally uploaded by NedraI.

Once each summer on a hot day my husband and I go on a tour of our local brewery, Saranac. Today was the day we headed down there. The tour guides are college kids and the one we had today did a great job. He told us some interesting tidbits of information we hadn't heard before. It's a fun tour going through many different parts of the brewery. These copper kettles are beautiful. On a week day you'll often see people working on the beer but it's a quite place on the weekends. A little over a year ago there was a fire at the brewery. Due to the fire the brewery has to contract out their beers to be canned. They are close to having renovations completed but since it's not quite done we didn't get to go in the aging cellars or bottling room. The aging cellars are always are favorite part because it's nice and cool there. Hopefully by next summer the tour will be complete again.
