http://www.post-gazette.com/stories/local/obituaries/obituary-thomas-pastorius-made-craft-beer-popular-here-with-penn-brewery-652652/ Can't help but wonder if the period when the brewery closed aggrivated his issues....I had the pleasure of doing Tom's brew tour where he instructed us on the brewing process and demonstrated the brew tanks...I think it was a couple of Christmas seasons ago....And as some of you veteran beerpals know, I have held Tom and the Penn Brewery in the highest regard via several articles here on the site...Oktoberfest this year will not be the same.....What a story....What a life....What a legacy....Thank you Tom Pastorius....and Rest in Peace.......
