Nickel Beer Company “Grand” Opening
by Michael Hart
The process was started back in the spring of 2013. Tom and Lindsay Nickel closed escrow on the old sheriffs sub-station next to Hwy 78 and Hollow Glen Road. Then it was months of converting the building in what is now the Nickel Beer Company. In October Tom had begun brewing, but only on a small scale, partially to insure everything was working properly and because of other commitments, he could not devote “full time” to getting the tasting room up and running the way he envisioned. That all changed this past weekend, the three day Presidents holiday was the ideal time to make the opening official and do a little something special for the patrons. First was the beer - an “Apple Pie Ale” was ready, and along with some of the other offerings; a new “Filthy Paws Porter” was brought online, meaning there would be 11 different beers on tap. Pleanty of choices. Saturday also included a bit of food for those stoping by to taste of quaff a pint. “Jeremy’s on the Hill” was serving fresh burgers from the grill and Brats and his soon to be world famous Brussel Sprouts. The weather Saturday was ideal for sitting out on the patio,
enjoying some luch and tasting some “Julian Made” brews, the crowd consisting of numerous locals, casual visitors and tourists kept the parking lot and street parking full all day long. The celebrating continued through the weekend, with Olympics viewing inside on the big screen. Plenty of tasting and lots of growlers going out the door, lots of folks on the patio. It was a family affair with
dogs, kids and moms and dad, grandparents and just couples discovering the newest destination for beer affectations, a reputation that Tom Nickel has long been building in the San Diego craft beer marketplace and now has a place he calls his own right here. If the word continues to spread a lot more locals are going to know where the brewery is, because their going to be giving directions - “on the right as you head toward Banner, past the County Yard and bus garage.
More Progress On High School Reconstruction
The progress on the new science building is starting to look more tangible every week, workers are finishing up the roof framing and tieing the building into the existing little theater. Construction is running ahead of schedule primarily due to the unseasonable weather.

This is also an opportunity for anyone who wishes to become more involved with the Friends of the Library to become a committee member or volunteer to assist in some of the Friends sponsored events that occur throughout year. The FOJL Annual meeting will take place in the main room of the library and will be followed with entertainment by Judy Taylor and the Kenner boys. Refreshments will be served in the community room following the entertainment. Judy Taylor, a lifelong professional entertainer, and The Kenner Brothers are a local group created by their teacher, student relationship. Judy has performed several times at the library and is an audience favorite. Her infectious smile and rapport with the audience, whether singing love songs, country-western, or performing rope tricks, she is a very classy entertainer. After a few years of lessons with Judy, the Kenner boys, brothers Collin and Daniel, took off with mastering their education and musical skills to become professional level performers. Collin and Daniel were raised in Julian and are pleased to be sharing their musical talents at a local venue. Judy Taylor and the Kenner boy’s have performed together on many stages throughout the San Diego area with their own brand of musical style. Collin is a great singer and classical guitarist and Daniel is an amazing banjo and piano player. From bluegrass to western swing, this trio is very entertaining and versatile. Their entertainment style shows a great joy and mutual respect for one another that brings the best out in each of them. We believe that you will be thoroughly entertained by their performance.

Julian Historical Society
Rancho Guajome Adobe Through The Eyes Of A Docent On February 26, 2014, Wednesday, 7:00 p.m., Julian Historical Society welcomes Ron Quirk, historian and docent of Rancho Guajome Adobe, Vista, California. We are fortunate to have Ron speak as he has probably done more research on the 2219-acre rancho than anyone else. Ron was the Fire Marshal/Division Chief, City of Vista Fire Department for 28 years. In 1987, he and his wife, Norma, built a home on 5 acres in Julian. After retiring, Ron became
Ranch Guajome - 1935 a park ranger at Mt. Rainier National Park and Grand Teton National Park. Now he is a docent at Rancho Guajome Adobe in Vista. Ron presents the legacy of California’s rancho days. Ron Quirk Rancho Guajome Adobe, the centerpiece of what was originally a 2219-acre Mexican land grant, stands today as an authentic representation of two cultures- Hispanic and American- and offers the region an illustration of a colorful era in San Diego’s past. Come and hear the story about a handsome young Army lieutenant from Tennessee, sent to California in 1849 with a company of U.S. Army Dragoons to reinforce U.S. troops. While waiting in Old Town to complete his assignment, he meets one of San Diego’s most prominent citizens and begins courting his daughter. Wait until you hear the rest… Ron has all the details and is an excellent historical story teller. This event is free to all. Refreshments will be served. We are planning a field trip to Rancho Guajome Adobe, with Ron Quirk as our docent. If you are interested, we will have a sign up sheet available at the presentation.
