Unfortunately, Hopmonk Tavern has fired their awesome bar manager, Aussie Brad for having a beer after he had finished work. The sad thing is that when I, ( i was a regular patron ) inquired why to Brad was not there, I was informed by the GM that he had moved on to other enterprises, It is rumored that Brad was right at his 3 months, ( cal state law allows you to dismiss for no reason before 3 months employment).
Brad was the reason why i went in there, he was putting in countless hours getting their " summer rotation" together, basically the hrs he was working were rediculous. I suspect that the real reason of termination was that he has out priced himself. I guess that Hopmonk in more corporation than what Mr Biersch had fought against.
I wish Brad all the best and it is a sad day for Hopmonk, Ill drink my beer elsewhere.
