E-Malt.com News article: USA, IL: Open Outcry Brewing Co. aiming at mid-June opening

Open Outcry Brewing Co. received some important equipment in the afternoon on May 11 — two large stainless steel tanks and other devices used to make beer, DNAInfo reported.

The tanks were delivered on a flatbed trailer. Installers and a few others were offered a rare glimpse inside the new restaurant and brewery at 10934 S. Western Ave. in Morgan Park, Chicago.

Owner John Brand expects to open in mid-June. Already, the bar and other accents have been built using vintage barn wood he's hand selected from a wood collector in the Downstate town of Wing.

The tables have been made from wood pulled from the floor joists of a shuttered hardware store in Colfax, Ill. The roughly 4,000-square-foot brewpub will have seating for 110 people, Brand said.
