New Warehouse Preparations
26/05/2013Today we had a productive Sunday morning at the new BSBC HQ. We spent the morning cleaning the warehouse internal walls ready for painting which will spruce it up nicely.
Ahead this week we look forward to a mountain of paperwork to do. We have Excise Application, SA Water Trade Waste, Strata Development Application and Manufacturers Design Report verifications all to be done.
It never ends but we love it.

Good Beer Wheaty – Homebrewer to Pro wash-up
18/05/2013We had a great night tonight on Day 3 of Good Beer Wheaty. Our session on stage ended up running overtime which was a healthy sign. After the session we got some great feedback from the crowd in attendance. There really is some great love out there for more local craft beer action in SA.

17/05/2013Our first warehouse: Its in our current location but was too small to house our commercial brewery. Many mornings were spent here working on recipes and talking through our plans. We also met some great people who worked in the surrounding premises, including our great friend and new landlord, Len from LeGrande Kitchens
