OLD NEWS (but maybe still interesting):
SOLAR POWERED BEER (Hawthorne {and now Quimby})
After getting our Hawthorne brewery up and running with solar hot water, we are now online with a similar system at our Quimby brewery. During the summer the sun is sizzleing our water to 180 degrees! Even on Sunny, cold, winter days we get about 140 degree hat water. Come on by and have a pint of Solar Flare Ale, made with the power of the sun! Check out the installation pictures on Ra Energy's website.
