So I've been on this site reading for quite some time, and this is my first post...
Anyway, I entered and won my first ever competition recently. Part of the award was going to a local brewery to brew with them. I'm really excited about this chance to learn on a professional scale because I (like so many others) have the hope of starting my own place.
My question is this. They want to brew my recipe and put on tap at their brewery. While this is very cool, am I a fool to give them my recipe? A few people I've talked to have suggested I ask for percentages or other types of reimbursement. What is standard here? I really want to have this opportunity, and don't want to offend by asking for money, but don't want to lose out on what is obviously a good recipe. They are going to use the name I've given the beer, as well, so on places like untappd it will show up under my homebrew name, but is that enough?
Anyway, any advice or opinions are greatly appreciated. I'm on this site daily, and without it I wouldn't know half what I do now. Thanks for your time,
Cheers
