We certainly appreciate the support we get from you. It is a affirmation to hear in person, by mail, email, and phone. We are at the point where financial support and in-kind contributions are increasingly important.

Accordingly, we will recognize these financial and in-kind supporters with brief acknowledgements on-the-air, so that others will know who our new contributors are. We will also maintain a list on this page, and hope that some day you too might join this list.

VISALIA BREWING COMPANY
Also known as "VBC", this comfortable pub pours micro-brews, imports, and domestics, plus well and call spirits. In addition to their 24 tap handles, they have a great selection of bottled brew. The downtown tap-house is also partnered with Paco's Tacos. Conveniently located at 112 West Main, between Court and Locust, there's lots of free parking in the city lot out back.
The weekly line-up includes a Happy Hour that's 180 minutes long, from 3 to 6 pm, and it's only $2.50 for a pint of ale in a chilled class. But wait, it gets better - on "Two Dollar Tuesday", any pint or regular bottle is only 2 bucks. Also on TDT, Paco offers two of his great chiquito tacos for, once again, 2 bucks. Karaoke is usually Thursday and Friday, and live local musicians are on display Saturday night. A number of special events also take place, so get the 4-1-1 on VBC entertainment for the current week at 734-2739 or click myspace.com/VisaliaBrewingCompany.
