The Montana Gay Health Task Force will be on hand in the community room offering FREE HIV (results in 1 minute!), syphilis and Hep C testing from noon to 8pm. Anyone tested will receive a free drink voucher.
The big expansion at Imagine Nation is a year in the making, and Fernanda and Robert are excited to be able to expand in order to meet an ever-growing demand. That's a great demand to have to accommodate! A couple weeks ago, they added two new 15bbl tanks (twice the size of their other tanks) that will increase their annual capacity by 25%. The hope is that this will allow INB to keep beer flowing to the taproom, along with parts of the rest of Montana, along with Portland, Washington, Idaho, and California. Congrats to Imagine Nation and a hearty WELCOME BACK from the pandemic!
