Let the games begin. A few years ago, Maple built one of the nicer gymnasiums found at a prekindergarten to eighthgrade school. It appears the move is paying off.

Adventures in beer making

Body

There are many forms of art. One is making beer.

A new brewery is opening up in Okarche. Called Expedinture Brewery, it is owned by a team of five men with ties to Okarche — Heath Robinson, Keith Griesel, Cody White, Michael Vogt and Thomas Vogt.

“It’s a mash-up of ‘expedition’ and ‘adventure’,” said Robinson. “Our slogan is ‘Not quite an EXPEDITION, but more than an ADVENTURE.’”

Robinson said the team has brewed beer off and on for more than a decade, kicking it up a notch over the last few years making their own original recipes.
