Boatrocker Brewery

[Yob]

I was lucky enough to have a visit to Boatrocker today while they were brewing, a most enjoyable couple of hours, thought Id share a couple of snaps of the kit, sure had me drooling a little..





Mash was complete by the time I got there and boil was well under way



One hell of a steam generator



one hell of a chiller



one hell of a set of valves



one hell of a beer



One hell of a set up

So they do tours to the general public or was this by special arrangement as your a fellow brewing industry retailer of sorts???

 

[Yob]

What do you mean of sorts?

Was by way of invitation, I don't think they do tours mate. I saw it when he was still building it so was sort of a catch up.

Hey Yob, good to have you over for the tour!
Power supply issue fixed... a truck had hit power pole, causing 3 phase to crap out the whole street.
Lost 2 motors and the batch of beer you saw... But up and operational again.
Glad you enjoyed the beers. There'll be more new ones shortly.

Cheers,

Matt

Looking forward to that lambic when it's ready mate, also the 'strong dark' is superb (pictured above)

Thanx again for your time, was great having a chat and seeing the finished brewery in action, power issues aside, backup generator on the cards?

Cheers

Yob
