Well done Tony and Phil :clap:

Let hope it doesn't get modified to 3% :shock:

Well thats my Saturday sorted Aleman. Wibblers (hadn't heard of them before) are not too far from me, and have an open day Saturday. I should be able to pick up a few goodies and see how a brewery compares to the Tolly brewery I worked in in 1967.
Congratulations on having your recipe mass produced, bit like winning X Factor, instant fame! :thumb:

I'm hoping to pop down. Just noticed my sister in law live about 3 miles away from the brewery, need to tell the wife and kids to go see her sister :whistle:

Edit: Well done Tony :

I went to school in the old Mayland Primary which is almost opposite the brewery. I'm not too far away now so might try and pop over.

I've attended twice, camping on one of those weekends, certainly worth a visit.

Are you not going this weekend Dennis? Thinking again, maybe I do need to bring the wife, I need a driver after all :lol:

I was in a GK pub today and saw a brew called experimental on the bar, it was a stout, is that where yours will feature T?

 

[Aleman]

Could be.

 

[sam.k]

without sounding to capitalist and mercenary about it, what do you get out of this arrangement?
its your recipe yes? will you see a commission? or even an acknowledgement? or is it just the pride that the big boys want to make your beer?

its a great thing and I bet your over the moon I just wonder if you will benefit from it.

 

[Aleman]

Absolutely nothing

its your recipe yes? will you see a commission? or even an acknowledgement? or is it just the pride that the big boys want to make your beer?

I was allowed full rein in Phil's Hop store and Grain Shed, and it was Phil that took the risk that he would actually be able to sell the beer we made . . . which when you consider that he was risking close on 750 quids worth of ingredients . . .that is some risk.

For me it's the pride thing that Phil thought the beer was good enough to represent Wibblers Brewery . . . It's not the only recipe he supplied, but even so.

What would have pleased me more, was if the beer had proved so popular that he would have been forced to make it a regular . . . which has happened once in the past when our 2.5BBL recreation of Ushers 1890 Stout sold out in an afternoon . . Crafty Stoat became a regular beer.

I see, once again well done :)

Well done tony

 

[calumscott]

Tony, do you happen to know if this is *all* houses? Tied and managed? (I've just found out that a friend works in a tied GK house in Burford and I could get advance warning of it going on...)

:

 

[Aleman]

It's a limited edition guest beer, so I suspect that pubs will have to order it in

 

[calumscott]

Thanks, this place does run a guest line so fingers crossed!
