I agree. Have anything else to add?mistermurphy wrote:This is a very humorous thread.
When I wrote that negative comment about guys brewing a homebrew kit and suddenly thinking they can open a brewery, there was a fair bit of sarcasm in my tone. However, this morning I was reading another forum, and there was a guy asking all of these questions about getting permits, finding a property, when to hire a lawyer and an accountant, etc. Made it sound like he was pretty much ready to pull the trigger, just looking for some advice on what order to do all these things in. He was also especially ticked that established breweries wouldn't give him much help, and were in fact quite rude to him. By the end of the thread, it was revealed the guy is 24 years old, has no money (not even enough to go to brewing school according to him), and has only been making beer from extract on his stovetop for the past 6 months or so.
So yeah, I ain't making this shit up.
