“My ADHD took me down the brewing path and I’m currently in brew school at Saint Louis University. I started this podcast around June this year to really hone in on the business aspects of brewing. I’ve recently finished listing to every single episode and feel well equipped with the knowledge that I need. I wouldn’t say I was convinced not to start a brewery, but I just won’t at this moment. I’ve learned about the market and margins of brewing and now just isn’t a good time to take the leap.
I’d tell everyone who is thinking about going from home brewer to “pro” to listen to this podcast and have a think about what you’re getting yourself into. As an investment decision, a brewery isn’t the smartest move.
Overall, great podcast. Anyone who rates this low got an ego gut punch because all their ‘friends’ rooted them on when Kelly told the cold hard truth. There’s always a dichotomy with these kinds of things, but it’s good to know the darker side of owning a brewery.”
