Appreciate the offer of help. We've not made it to Sheffield yet but have spoken with Triple Point about doing a collaboration at some point but nothing has come of it yet. When we're all back together again on a match day I'll try and find a pub who'll put a cask on and we can have a chat.whentheballmoves wrote: ↑Thu Jun 11, 2020 2:54 pmClaret brewer sounds good.
Sell in any Sheffield outlets? Beer Central are good...
Happy to liaise, and / or help eith delivery if it's a bit far... ☺

Re: Jamestown IPA...
Had a look at your twitter page and website, looks like you've got a good thing going on. I worked at moorhouses for 7 years doing packaging, delivering and brewing. Even worked in the lab. Left to go to a large multinational. One thing I saw at moorhouses is other breweries that tried to go too big too soon and failed.ClaretBrewer wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 6:45 pmWe're called Shadow Brewing, based over in Otley. We've had about a dozen one off beers and collaborations out to the public so far and most have gone down really well.
Keen to listen to advice if you have any!
Know what you're good at and play to your strengths.
I really like the micro pub model. For a small outlay you can get some good turnover. Also means you aren't tied into to traditional pub styles and themes

Re: Jamestown IPA...
Appreciate that, thank you. Definitely want to go down the brewery tap route and actually looked round a place last week, but with social distancing rules couldn't make it work financially for a few months, and now someone else has put an offer in.padihamclaret wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 12:26 pmHad a look at your twitter page and website, looks like you've got a good thing going on.

Re: Jamestown IPA...
The new brewm in burnley are now selling cans of reedly Hallows beers between 10 and 1 monday to friday cheers
Re: Jamestown IPA...
I suspect we'll be seeing fewer of these small breweries soon after the government change in small brewers relief (as pushed by a number of larger breweries).

Re: Jamestown IPA...
I sampled your beer while enjoying us beating Norwich on Friday. Ghost was the pick of the bunch, very nice- any plans brew another batch? the Brut was a bit on the strong side, couldn't manage many of those in a session!ClaretBrewer wrote: ↑Wed Jun 10, 2020 10:14 pmThe Curious Hop should still have some, or The Hoptimist in Guiseley. If not drop me a message and I'll sort some out for you. Contact details are on the website.

Re: Jamestown IPA...
Glad you enjoyed it. They'll definitely be more Ghost at some point. Ideally I'm trying to find a venue to put it on keg. It was a regular at The Stew and Oyster in Otley and was outselling Camden and Beavertown before it shut down.
Re: Jamestown IPA...
Maybe try Andrew at the Barlick Tap? Think he was on about putting a couple of keg lines onClaretBrewer wrote: ↑Wed Jul 22, 2020 8:19 pmGlad you enjoyed it.
