We do something like that. It's called our Guest Brewer Program. I ask a home brewer what he wants to brew then I get approval for my brewpub to brew and sell it from the state. Then they come in and brew. We promote it and he returns a month later and tends bar and pours it. I buy the...
My pleasure. I'm not doing anything new or anything any one else can't do. The difference is I'm doing it. You have to realize the difference between " I want to do it " and "I like the idea of doing it". It took me 30 years of working for the man to be able to do this. My business is debt...
The name of my brewpub is Uncle Bob's Brewpub. It is located between the cities of Nixa and Springfield Missouri. Right now our most popular beer is the October Fest-sold out last night, the American Boch, and our Raspberry wheat. I have 5 pub tables that seat 4 customers each and a 35 ft bar...
My brewpub has a ten gallon two vessel electric system with 40 gallons in fermenters. My place has max occupancy of 67. I do just fine. 13 faucets on two keg boxes. I brew two sixth barrels twice a week. We do have a full service bar with a liquor license so its not just beer I sell but most...
My LHBS lets me sample the grains and provides a valuable source of information. I'm not going to buy a bunch of grain to save on shipping when I can get what ever I need local for the same as the online price...and let the business worry about storing the grain. It's a 30 minute drive why pile...
I don't like IPAs. Never have. Never will. I brew wheat beers, Belgian Wits, Blond ales, porters, stouts, my award winning Irish Ale, Golden ale, bochs, pale ales, or anything....but IPAs.
Almost 20 years brewing and I've never bought any supplies on line except my refractometer and one no weld brew pot temp gauge. I don't like the idea of buying grain without seeing it or tasting a new one. Plus the info I get from my LHBS is invaluable. As far as price I have looked and...
I've built a lot of kegerators (15-20). Never saw coils in the sides. I always put my faucets in the door but that's just the way I think it looks better. fridges are thinner then they are wider and when the faucets are in the side it sticks out into the room farther and the back is always...
Well, mine isn't quite like that. It's a bolt action target rifle. Made by a gunsmith who migrated over from Germany as a child and built a successful business building 50 cal rifles. Then he died in a car crash.
I quit using corny kegs years ago. I only use sanke. But, I force carb in them I don't transfer carbed beer into them. I built a gravity fed manifold for filling and it has a co2 system for cleaning and emptying.
Happens all the time in summer. The tanks have a pressure relief valve in them. When the gas heats up it expands and the valve releases the pressure. I've had them pop off so long they almost emptied. Always got a replacement refund because of the amounts I bought from the supplier.
