I was just reading about a family that got the idea to open a brewery, and has been traveling around visiting breweries and drinking beer to get a feel for the market. They recently began brewing, and came up with extensive business plans on how to grow into a brewery who will sell nationally through various (and some complex) channels.
This got me thinking: the article mentioned nothing of credentials and made it sound as though they have no restaurant/hospitality experience. Rather, it appears they have a "solid business plan".
So what do you all think is the best way to open a brewery? To plan extensively, or to sell as much as you can produce and see where your business takes you?
