REMEMBERING DANNY

On January 31, 2012 Tröegs Brewery lost a family member.

Danny Glover didn’t work for Tröegs very long, but his death nine days after a car accident on an icy stretch of the Pennsylvania Turnpike shook the brewery to the core. Our brewery family is relatively young and to think that a 24 year-old guy who leaves in a car one morning (ironically to attend a funeral) could be gone a week later is unbelievable.

Troegs Filling Some Oak Barrels (Splinter?)

I know this may seem a little like Tweeting when someone sneezes, but today we have a photo courtesy of Troegs showing some oak barrels being filled….and while this is speculation on my part, I’m hoping we’re seeing the beginning of an upcoming Splinter Series release.  It’s been a while and there have been lots of rumors as to what’s next, and while this may not be the next Splinter release, hopefully one is on the way.

Troegs & HydroWorx 2012 Underwater Marathon

Troegs will partner with HydroWorx to host the 2012 Underwater Marathon to benefit The Eagle Fund…a fund to help heal wounded special forces soldiers.  From PRWeb:

An operational underwater treadmill, which will be featured during the Underwater Marathon, will be on display and available for test runs.

To share the personal impact of the Eagle Fund and the funds raised through the September Underwater Marathon event, a Special Forces Soldier who was injured and, through the Eagle Fund program, has return to active duty, will also be on site to share his inspiring story of bravery and service.
