Who on here owns or has a link to a commercial brewery

Post by simon12 » Fri Mar 18, 2016 1:16 pm

Just wondered purely out of interest if there are people on this forum who are in any way involved in commercial brewing. I bought half of Crooked Brook Brewery in November 2015 just a 1 barrel pilot brewery.

I've just set one up. South Lakes Brewing Co. It can only produce 1BBL at the moment. I really need a bigger BK so that I can fill my 300L fermenters.

Interesting does anyone linked to a 20BBLish have any advise on getting from my 1BBL to there?
