Greg Hall Poster Boy for Goose Island

After my last Goose story I was prepared to steer away from Goose Island.  Personally, I feel the topic is getting somewhat old, but the Hall’s seem to have a miraculous ability to keep generating stories for this blog.  The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Greg Hall, exiting Brewmaster of Goose Island, son of the founder, and future brewing consultant to Anheuser – Busch (AB) mistook a pint glass for a urinal while standing in a bar.
