She’ll have to come back. “The notary,” she sighs. “I would have known that 23 years ago. I wasn’t even thinking about that now. I’m not on that level.” Every day, she faces challenges in navigat- ing a world from which she’s long been de- tached — with little help or direction from government agencies. Since leaving a halfway house in July, Bozeman has been living with her mother in the same pink house she used to escape from. Since her release, she hasn’t driven a car. Four days a week, she catches rides to cosmetology school. Each day, she has to check in by phone with a probation office. One day recently, she was called in for a random drug test, but she didn’t have a ride and couldn’t figure out how to catch the bus. “I’m not walking down the street with all those flakkaheads trying to get to a bus stop!” she says. “I’ve been gone 23 years. There were no bus stops then. Nobody’s on my level. My mom and my sister and my kids, they don’t know.” Prison was just four walls, work rou- tines, and guards keeping everything in line — the same scene on repeat for 23 years.

Like much of the brewery space, the taproom design and furniture represent a labor of love for the brewery owners, each table and chair constructed using reclaimed materials.
