Hi,

I appreciate the interest guys, but I cannot legally sell this until my licence goes through. The only reason I really wanted to make the beer, a part from being a life long dream to make beer of my own, is so that people in the restaurant can have an interesting beer with their meals.

As soon as I have some in a safe to send bottle, I'll let you know, and obviously make sure I get the all clear from the powers that be.

Cheers,
Nik

Just saw this thread, nice work Protest

Funnily enough I am involved with opening up new beer orientated small bar on Beaufort St Mount Lawley which will focus on crafted beers out side of the norm and will be bringing back the hand pump. So will have to hit me up with some more info when you guys get it all sorted as I can see some potential here.. Also are you out in the Swan Valley?? Kinda looks like it from a couple of pictures

Hi,

I'm actually based down south mate. Interested to hear more about the Mt Lawley project, I'm originally from Freo but spent a lot of time kickin' it around Mt.L.

I'm going to put an update here tonight on our newest brew, a Blood Orange IPA that we call 'Tits Out'. Getting some photos of the pour later on this afternoon, first crack at bottle conditioning so fingers crossed!

Cheers,
Nik

So are you still brewing bud. I just got a simple home brew kit myself to try my hand at it before I get into something really serious. Any major pointers for a total rookie?

Yes! The beer goes in the mouth. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise...

Hi,

Sorry for the lack of updates. I literally just walked out of a meeting with some officials. Long story short, I am now fully approved by the federal and state government to manufacture and sell/supply beer that I make myself!

This thread is a bit sad to look at when you see the date stamps. The stonewalling of local councils to try and stop a new business venture in a tourism driven wine region is just appalling. Oh well. That's behind me now.

I will give a better update later on, but now, I think it's time to celebrate!

TTMOTION: By home brew kit, are we talking using liquid malt extract for the wort? Or are you looking to boil in your own mash? Give me a few more details and I would be very happy to help out.

Make sure you let me know what type of beer you would like to make. I've been drinking a bit of American stuff recently, Stones Ruination IPA is absolutely tits.

Cheers,
Nik
