Tap Rooms Iowa

I'm surprised that Toppling Goliath hasn't been as aggressive with opening satellite locations as Big Grove has been. They are both huge in the craft beer world.
Expansion is tricky. You will see less and less of it going forward.

Toppling is still planning on expanding in the Drake neighborhood. Toppling's main focus is out of state distro and they have done a very good job of that. I believe they are in 13 states now.

The Drake project is still a go?!
 
TG has expanded distribution across much of the country. Not sure taprooms are their focus.
