Is there any other way?

Luckily we found a standard non-front vented Frigidaire model that only required 2" of clearance (most others are 5" +) which is something I can live with.

Next issue was they looked like this

Stainless steel isn't really something that fits in our house or our bar plans and these fridges don't have optional wood door kits.

So I took upon myself to remove all the stainless and fit a wood frame in it's place.

Routered the outside edge to be flush with the door, a little stain and two custom fridges in place for less than a $1000 combined.

They'll look built in once I trim around them.

Don't get too excited, they were on sale :mrgreen: but a personal local favorite none the less, except for the lime.

I have not taken the tour, is it worth it?

You're easily impressed, you haven't seen nothing yet, much more planned for this bar.

I have to agree here, I'm a big fan of most of the Big Rock products (especially the Rock Creek cider in bottle) but there lime tastes too artificial for me... I feel this way about most beer with lime in it though.

This will be my fourth year in a row going, you pay just over $40 for a wicked tour and then you get unlimited drinks when you get back to the club house!
I go with all of my Geo buddies though, not sure if its the brewery or the geologists that make it enjoyable probably a nice combination of both!

I guess you like geologists? Enough to say they really rock and that you really dig them?

My sediments exactly, geologists are the schist! It's their fault I've turned into the bloodly alcoholic that I am :razz:.
