This post is gratifying to me since I am in complete agreement and wrote the script with this in mind. Thanks for the feedback.

The financiers are the parents of the brewer. The father has no interest at first, as he thinks little of his son's hobby, but the mother forces the issue and he comes around. But he's shrewd and takes steps to cut the non-family partner out, setting up a power struggle.

I am not a brewer myself, so I went to the most reputable source I could figure, the owner of a brewing supply store. He and his guys read my work and made sure it was not only accurate, but also reflective of what these sort of guys would realistically be able to pull off. It comes across as...

Once the place opens, there will be all kinds of true stories worked into the plot lines. This might just have to be one of them!

I have the concept for season 1 fairly well figured out. The second season picks up with the brewery open. How long it makes sense to show that part of the story, I'm not sure, but the story has legs if for no other reason than small businesses face challenges ongoing. Thank you for your...

In honesty, I figure the best chance for any show to take off is to get a passionate fan base to spread the word about it. I realized the results would be skewed before posting here, but for my purposes, identifying interest, it's okay by me.

I mentioned in another thread that the show is about the characters and their maturation from stalled young adults into business owners who manage the challenges of running a small business together. So it's about a brewery in a way similar to how Six Feet Under was about a funeral parlor. I...

I remember Hamm's but not in that regard. Fill me in? But the nickname for Asheville, where the series is set, is The Land of the Sky. I grabbed the initialism and ran with it.

It's like a brewery in a way similar to Cheers being about a bar. Hopefully, the characters will be relatable (if not always likable), and so will go places worth seeing and, maybe, even think/discuss interesting things from time to time, when not hammering each other with barbs, most loving...

If anything, the different structure I have gone with would make many say it is not formulaic enough, but there's a tone I'm going for which has me keeping it slower than the norm. It hopefully will be done in a way such that you get to understand these founders are in personal ruts across the...

Agreed. I want to keep it somewhat lighthearted. There's this thing called "comps" where you describe your written work by comparing it to other shows that have aired. My description is "Six Feet Under meets Friends" as I feel that would be the tone. There is some recreational drug use (in part...

Hey, everyone. I have written a one-hour dramedy TV pilot about the founding and operation of a microbrewery, and I am trying to gauge people's interest in having such a show be produced. I created a poll in LinkedIn and got just over 800 votes, of which 75% said YES. Curious to know if I'd get...
