I'm game if you are! I've got a killer London Pride clone.
B
Mine turned out quite good. It's been a while since I've had London Pride, so I can't compare directly, but it's good though! Maybe I'll stop by Abe's on the way home today...
how many square feet do you say that whole area is?
I noticed you have tile in there. What kind of foundation does it have? Pier & beam? It does not look like there was a cement pad poured.
Thats right no poured foundation-which keeps local permits to a minimum-off grade, I added 1/2 plywood to the already 3/8" floor, then used 5/16th" cement board, then tile, it is noteworthy that the tile is 1/2 thick commercial stuff, with all that, the floor is solid as Sears , almost no flex whatsoever.
Which is better, because it's about 8 miles from home, I plan on keeping it somewhat conspicuous.You're right, the exterior doesn't give you any clue to the amazingness containted within!
Seeing as you are keeping this conspicuous, and not inconspicuous as I would have thought, can I get turn by turn directions from Oxford area?Which is better, because it's about 8 miles from home, I plan on keeping it somewhat conspicuous.

Thanks for sharing. Very nice set up. I'll have to schedule a tour next time we are down your way which may be in April or May. Can Hosfeld and I access it via mountain bike?
Leaving the brewery, there are miles and miles of mountain biking trails , I have a map of those trails hanging in the brewery, matt will know this place well .
got a technical question for you - I have a 400 sq ft studio on my property that does not have a designation - yet. It would make a perfect small brewery. I notice you use propane and have an exhaust hood. How many CFM is that hood and do you have a CO monitor ? Or are you using natural gas?
It's a most common shed ,22' x 14' or just about 300 square feet , the beauty of it all, is that from the outside , you would never know what's going on in there. Since I purchased the property back in July 08, I started on the inside first, winter came fast here in PA , and it's been cold since November. I can hardly wait to start some needed improvements to the outside of it, although it's a very solid structure.
Here is a small picture of what it looked like early on. This is my kilt wearing buddy explaining that a "stripper pole " would be a critical design element to the success of the layout. Of course my wife didn't see it the same way :

Then I added the French doors and dormer/porch:
Any completed picture of the exterior? I love it!!!
Amazing! There is nothing better than a proper English pub. Well done, sir! Are those actual hand-pulls you've got there? If so, how are you working them? Cask-breathers?

Just snapped a few shots on Easter, need to do some landscaping this warm weekend in the East .
