Gypsy Brewing

October 9, 2014

Bushido Brewery is brewing again! It's been nearly a year since the brewery was packed up in storage and I left LA to travel. Since then I've drank a lot of beer but haven't brewed any myself. Now with the help of various brew on premises (BOP) partners, Bushido Brewery is brewing again. Last month I did the first gypsy batch in Seattle. Today I am brewing in Victoria BC. Stay tuned to the blog for pictures!

Today is our second annivarsary! Our first beer was brewed on this day in 2011 and there are still a few bottles in the back of the cellar.
