Sounds like it's time to start planning for the full-scale brewhouse.

So the event was quite a success. We ended up having to have the distributor pick up more beer about 2 hours after the event started. I knew they hadn't ordered enough beer.  ;) Already have a few local restaurants requesting kegs.

awesome!

Oh man, I'm soooo jealous. I'm stuck behind a desk while you're brewing beer and selling it! Maybe I'll be there someday.

On the bright side you are making money where as I am working my ass off basically for free.  ;)

Full scale brew house is already in the plan. But it may be a year or two. We need equipment immediately. Just got the cold room up and running so I can instal my bright tanks. But this first few batches had to be force carbbed in the keg and I admit it wasn't completely dialed in, specifically on the White, which was a bit under carbonated. Still disappeared rather quickly though.

Oh yeah, I bet. I said hopefully I'll be there someday as in I have made tons of money at my desk job, now time to open a brewery.... Or hopefully my wife starts raking it in  ;D
