Bob Hargreaves, owner of Yakima’s Bob’s Keg and Cork, was hit by a car while walking home from the grocery story on December 26th. He is recovering, but facing a growing mountain of medical bills. The collision crushed his knee and he is expected to be in rehabilitation for the next three months. The motorist that hit Bob was uninsured.
Although Yakima is the heartland when it comes to hop production, it can be a tough place to find a good beer. Bob’s Keg and Cork is a beacon and Bob himself is an institution.
I don’t want to start a debate about health care, but because of the circumstances surrounding this accident Bob’s business could hang in the balance. Bob’s Keg and Cork remains open while he recovers, but the locals are getting worried. A benefit for Bob is in the works. We’ll keep you posted as we learn more.
