Reminder for This Saturday:

3,000,000 Bottles of Millstream Brews!

We’re going to have a party and we want you to a part of it!  We are going to bottle our three millionth bottle since we bought the brewery in Jan 2001.  On Saturday, March 31 we would like to invite everyone down to Millstream Brewery to help us bottle that day.  Aaron & Eric bottling1See how happy Eric looks when he’s bottling. Eric has volunteered to bottle with us several times and he keeps coming back for more.  Wear boots to bottle in as it gets quite wet on the bottling line.  We’ll be bottling from 3:30 – 5:30 so feel free to come and go as you please.
We will then pull the three millionth bottle off the line, shut it down and move the party into the warehouse (it’s just too cold to go out side this time of year!!)  Electric Mule will be playing from 6-10 pm so put on your dancing shoes and of course we’ll have brats and beer available too.

Brewmaster Aaron promises to have something special on tap just for the party.  He is being very secretive about what this will be though, so you’ll have to come out to find out!

Here is some 3,000,000 bottle trivia for you.  Remember these, you just might be quizzed on them while the band is playing and win some door prizes (yes, the prize will be free beer!).
3,000,000 bottles laid end to end equals:  22,500,000 inches, 1,875,000 feet, 625,000 yards, 355.11 miles!
355.11 miles would reach into 10 states.  Iowa, Minn, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin.
3,000,000 bottles equals:  36,000,000 oz, 281,250 gallons, 9072.5 bbls and 18,145 - 15.5 gallon kegs!
3,000,000  bottles equals:  54.25 semi loads of glass!
