January 05, 2007 - Triumph's Philadelphia Brewpub Opening Pushed Back To March
That new Triumph brewpub in Philadelphia's Olde City?

Still definitely gonna happen, just not quite as soon as planned.

Director of brewing operations Jay Misson checked in with The Beer Yard late last night with this update:

We have adjusted our dates and things are looking towards a mid March, rather than February opening. Too many construction issues...

We have not yet been able to brew as we await construction details and approval from all the various powers that be. We are trying to get brewing within a week or two...We will not open until we have six weeks of beer brewed, fermenting and aging. By all accounts its a big project, and we only received our chiller condenser for the roof on Saturday, so we are pluggin' away every day to move things along...

When ready, the new pub at 117-121 Chestnut Street will be the third location for the award-winning local chain, after the original in Princeton, NJ, and a second in New Hope. A fourth Triumph is scheduled to open in Red Bank, NJ, in 2008. Patrick Jones, winner of four GABF medals over the last two years, will move down from the New Hope pub to brew in Philadelphia.--JACK CURTIN
