LESSON LEARNED
Stain writes a personal story in response to "Where's Jaquin?":
In supplement to the "Where's Jaquin" post, I would like to share a story about Jake. Now, Being younger than most on this blog, I never knew him while he was active at 131 College Place. But, during my senior year, he did show up out of nowhere in the Spring semester. I
don't recall what he was doing in town or where he stayed, but he was a fixture in the house for a couple of weeks. And then as suddenly as he appeared, he was gone.
Of course during that time, Jake told many stories about the old days and what not. He also had lots of suggestions - and one of his biggest gripes was why there was not keg beer on tap at all times - generally only Thursday through Saturday. I gotta say, Jake had a great point. All it would have taken was a CO2 tank, but then again, storing a potentially expolsive gas in the Crow House probably wouldn't have been the best idea.
Anyway, I have incorporated Jake's vision into my house and had a kegerator built into my kitchen as shown in these photos. Keg fresh beer is always on tap at the Tryka residence. If anybody is ever in SW Florida, be sure to drop by for a ice cold brew.

I'm surprised by the lack of mixers on the bar space.
Where's the 2-liter of Red Pop and loaf of Price Chopper brand bread?
a true crow would never have a granite counter top, plywood all the way baby

It is quite 'posh' looking. I would never had fathomed such an aesthetically pleasing set up, it's almost surreal. It does look good though. Salute.
