If there's one thing I've learned over the years doing Cowtown Eats, it's that construction takes longer than expected. No matter how well organized or financed an operation is, there are always delays.

As recently as early March, Jackrabbit Brewery was slated to open at the end of March. It's now slipped until early April, per an e-mail to Cowtown Eats from Jackrabbit partner Ed Edsten.

We will open the first weekend in April.  We will feature 10 beers on tap with an emphasis on Belgian and English style ales, but also IPAs and some less conventional beers (a saison dryhopped with green bullet hops for example).

Those who want a sneak peek can check out their taproom on their Facebook page (where the photo above comes from), or visit when they do an growler refills on Thursdays from 5:30 to 7 p.m., or Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

When Jackrabbit does open, it will add another leg to the the West Sac Beer Trail, which now includes Bike Dog Brewing and Yolo Brewing companies.

Jackrabbit Brewing Company will be located at 1315 Terminal St in West Sac, or can be found online at http://jackrabbitbrewingcompany.com/.

You can get a preview of Jackrabbit at the Red, White, and Brew event on March 21 taking place at the brewery. $50 per person or $90 per couple. Limited to 120 guests only. Ticket details are at bridgewayplay.com

North Natomas is picking up steam - Inside a warehouse the size of an airport hangar, tucked at the end of an oddly named street called Professor Lane, there’s a sign that North Natomas might be getting its swagger back. It’s just one business, and that can’t fully reverse years of a neighborhood feeling like it was dissed at every turn. But when that new business is Track 7 Brewing Co. – one of this city’s most successful startups of the past five years – you start to wonder whether Ryan Graham and Geoff Scott were on to something when they opened up shop in this far-flung outpost last month.
