You may remember I blogged back in August about Abraxus Brewing, the new microbrewery slated to open in The Dalles. Wondered what was going on with that? So was I, but it had frankly slipped my mind until I received an email from the founder, Ray Bustos:

Currently we on a hiatus because my brewer and partner relocated to northern Washington.  I still have plans on opening a brew pub but it will be at least a few years down the road.  I’m still brewing test batches, but until I can locate some funding the brewery is on hold.

It’s unfortunate news, but I’m glad to see that he hasn’t given up on it entirely.
