Hey everyone! We're officially paid in full on our Localstake raise! Hurray!
I want to put out a heartfelt thank you for all your help during this process. We never would have gotten over the hump the past couple of years without your investment and support and I can't tell you how much that means to me.
I'd love to be able to host a party in honor of everyone that helped with the funding! I know at least a few of our investors live out of the Indianapolis area so please give me a shout and let me know what day / week might be good for you and I'll do my best to pick a time when the most people can make it.
As always, feel free to give me a shout on my cell - 734-341-4171 - or e-mail me at jason@booksnbrews.com!
Cheers!
