"Over in Sodo, Schooner Exact co-founders Heather and Matt McClung have departed the business they started in 2007, while their partner from the beginning, Ray Spencer, remains the owner and operator and Joel Stickney continues in his role as head brewer. Spencer has brought on Marcus Charles (Belltown Brewing, Local 360, and more) to help oversee renovations that have temporarily closed the taproom. The space is being turned into a beer hall and lunch counter, set for a March 1 reopening." - Megan Hill
