I no longer drink, but I do sometimes consider the possibility of adding beer brewing to our product mix. Is anyone in the group doing anything along these lines? Is brewing too complex a task to approach it as side product?
@Grant Lee agree that with a small population to serve, a very small system would be appropriate. I can't imagine the juice would be worth the squeeze though, as it adds a manufacturing operation to a retail operation.
@John Breese I got the joke of the photo, also looked up Wiarton on Wikipedia and saw it was a sub 2K pop town. Watching your video now. Like your camera presence. My brand is distributed in 6 states. Idaho and 5 of the states that touch Idaho. Working on Wyoming, last one to get. We also sell to Tavour which ships across the country, and Rare Beer Club (sometimes) which is another nationwide shipper.
Welcome Russel! Russel has a unique brewery up here and is distributing in quite a few states now. He could tell you all about contract brewing and we’re gonna do a video sometime soon hopefully
