I thought it was you who talked about it. It is a weird place, I
haven't been to many as I'm new to the hobby, but the showroom is
small. I'd say tasting and cash register room is more like it. They
must do one heckuva good internet business.

I'll have to look into Walker's Fruit Basket too, I think I've heard
of it but can't remember from where...

Here are some pics if anyone is interested. A couple of shots of the
stream outsider their place and one of the juice casks out back. I
don't think the front one will come through, I tried to get it to work
several times, but not much luck.
