Jamie Floyd is Staying Put

In the post below, the Eugene Register-Guard made this odd comment:
Eugene-based Ninkasi is one of the companies feeling the pinch. The brewery, which is restructuring its warehouse in preparation for a new brew master, needs to expand to remain successful, Floyd said, even in the face of rising costs.
It didn't sound right, and it wasn't. From Jamie himself:
It means they said brew master instead of brew house. They also said Nikos' last name was Brink instead of Ridge. Pretty common mistake for journalists. We are expanding our facilty and upgrading our brew house. We hope to have it up by August. I will very much be there for it all, along with the rest of our Ninkasi family. They are printing a correction tomorrow. I am just getting started friends.
Excellent.

  1. Jeff,

    Thanks for looking into this for us. Ninkasi is one of my favorite breweries and Jamie really makes great beer.

  2. Yeah, I know. I was a little panicked there for awhile. But it really didn't make much sense, so good to have it cleared up.
