Don’t get me wrong, I do like their beer. But the taproom itself didn’t “wow” me. Served me my beer in a plastic cup? Wtf. I did pick up a rum barrel aged milk stout for 12.99 though. 

I will never, ever understand this at a taproom. Saw someone posted from Trillium today, drinking from a plastic cup. 

 

Oh hell no!

No sh**? Some sort of special event or something? I definitely drank from proper glasses when I was there.

It’s such a waste. I doubt there was a shortage on glasses considering their gift shop was packed with them.

I loved that CC has a 10oz option for pouring size. That’s a perfect amount to get to try a lot of beer but not getting hammered on.

And still have enough in the glass to get the fresh pour vibe and the been-breathing-for-a-minute vibe.

Not sure if I mentioned here but I'll always have a soft spot for the CC guys on a personal level, even though I've never met them. They were selling their pilot system at the same time my buddy was getting his brewery (Main Channel in Guntersville) going, so it was perfect timing for him to level up on the cheap. He went over there and ended up spending the entire day with them talking about the business. He said they couldn't have been kinder and more generous with their time and knowledge.
