Its not that bad, and i encourage anyone to have a go, far from trying to bring a bad impression here.. But there is a few threads here in one. Running your own business, and one based on cash (as a venue is) is damm hard. If you are the brewer and salesman and accountant it is even harder. You...

Greg - um no. Same rules apply at the state Level across NSW. A council can put conditions which impact the state license. O'Henry forgets to mention he not only turned up with a hangover on day 1, and did not learn from that, and kept turning up. Per his example, lots of volunteers but few...

As above, no need to mill. just gelatinise it first (ie cook it). If you can get rice flakes they are usually steamed and rolled and therefore the job is done. Scotty

Forgot to say 'oh yeah, sexy floors'. Spent 5 years trying to hose down floors uphill and to a small pit, never doing that again! Floor was relatively cheap too, worth every cent

About 500,000 at the mo, can slide to about 1.2 mill with a few tanks in. All the services are oversized so I can add tanks straight in. On contract I am at about 250 odd ATM, so it will fill pretty quickly. Last bit of kit is in on Thursday, just Need to finish the building stuff and away we go.

I'll side step the issues that SHFA have had around other tenants, but there is no room for any brewing and at 40+ kegs a week that is still a reasonable sized bit of kit. Growler fills will be in place as well as packaged sales. Looking forward to taking home growlers personally! ;p

We are 100% contract atm, across 4 breweries on average from Mildura to IBC to Australian Brewery to 6 String. Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority told us from the get-go that we would never be able to put the brewery in The Rocks. Happy for us to have the pub and beers named after the area, but...
