Yello'bar > Resurrection Ale House

Leigh Maida and Brendan Hartranft, who own Memphis Taproom and Local 44, have plans for the Grays Ferry watering hole.

Leigh Maida and Brendan Hartranft are continuing their expansionist ways.

The couple, who opened Memphis Taproom in "Port Fishington" last year and Local 44 in West Philly earlier this year, are in the process of taking over Yello'bar, which opened in Grays Ferry/G-Ho in April 2007.

Maida didn't want to talk about it today, and neither did Yello'bar's Ken Hyland.

Update: On Friday, Maida divulged details to Jack Curtin's Liquid Diet blog; name will be Resurrection Ale House. Hartranft later told me that the concept is "beer bistro," with 12 on tap and 50 (mainly Euro varieties) by the bottle.
