They spell like bloody Brits. <G>Still, why not here?Just call us, make a brewing time and we'll help you with the rest.1. ChooseGather a mate or two (or hoard it all for yourself) come in and consult our list (see Beer Menu). With 225 on offer, choosing isn't as easy as you think, but if you have a favourite brand, from here or overseas, chances are we'll have something very close to it.Photo of hops2. MeasureOur staff will give you your recipe sheet and help you measure out the ingredients. Don't worry - it's easy - and our staff can guide you through the process, or do it all for you while you relax!3. BrewHead over to your designated brew station and participate as your ingredients are added to the kettle, or just kick back and enjoy a sample. On your way out, book in for your bottling date in two to four weeks' time (depending on type of beer).4. BottleYour beer is already chilled, cold-filtered, carbonated and ready to drink. Bring in your own bottles and save or we can supply bottles (50c each). Twist-tops and tallies are OK too! Bottles must be relatively clean (no visible nasties inside), but not sterile - we'll sterilise them. Two can bottle a brew in about 45 minutes. If you have a keg, we'll just fill 'er up.Remember - the more you drink, the less you have to bottle!Behind the scenesAfter you finish brewing, your beer is carefully fermented in our temperature-controlled fermenting room in a sterilised, sealed fermenter.It is then chilled, triple-filtered and carbonated and will be waiting for you on your bottling day. Most lighter-coloured beers are ready to bottle in two weeks, most premium beers take three weeks and high-alcohol and most dark beers take four weeks.

there used to be a chain of place called Brew your own in the U.S. they may or may not be in business still. That's what they did too.I've been coming in via google so as to up the site rating. I checked out an interesting Aussie site:https://www.brewsbro....com.au/how.htmThey spell like bloody Brits. <G>Still, why not here?

Mmm..K. Aussie dollars are like Canadian dollars. <G>I'd expect experienced brewers during the week to avoid the crowds. Thursday through Sunday I'd expect standing room only, as you can enjoy homebrews with friends and do something... the Wii approach.I don't see anything wrong with the spelling.

Coolio!https://www.kellysbr...es/brewery.html I just need to move to the 20th century... I'm still doing battle to get freakin' DSL. No luck. 5 miles from town. I saw a couple of other places scattered about, too. I guess they want to KISS, but each site schedules bottling in 2 weeks and drinking in 4. Still, once people get into it... it should rock!Kellys looks to be doing very well.kelly's brewpub in 'burque does this.

If it's an upscale restaurant it seems plausible. Kelly's looks to be doing OK.I'm not sure what a 3 tier distribution system is, but I suspect that Texas also has it. Everything must go through a wholesaler and then a retailer?Contract brewing should short circuit that. I dunno...BOPs, (Brew On Premisses) have been around for a while. Problem is the startup costs and licensing fees. In GA it's like opening a brewery and the State of GA loves, Loves, LOVES their 3 tier distribution system.

Yep that's it.The breweries have to go to a wholesaler who sets the price that they will pay for the beer, (or else it can't be sold in GA).The wholesaler goes to the stores and sets the price they will sell it for to the store.The store again, ups the price but, makes next to nothing on a case of B/M/C. Like around 1.00/case.In GA you can not go to the brewery and purchase for personal consumption.Stupid, Stupid, Stupid.If it's an upscale restaurant it seems plausible.

yes and no. kelly's offers a large variety of ales. but they have problems with consistency. i've not personally seen their equipment, but have been told that they brew everything on several half barrel systems, like a sabco, using several different brewers. i don't go there often enough to be aqble to tell. but, they don't have any brewing equipment or fermenters where their customers can see them.yes, they are doing well. they bought a cheap, run-down old car dealership building a couple of blocks from university of new mexico. where the average age of students is 26. and the area they bought the property in is now considered a trendy part of 'burque. most afternoons kelly's is full to overflowing. do i consider the clientel that frequents kelly's to be knowledgable of beer? not really. but, that's probably true for most brewpubs.Kellys looks to be doing very well.

Actually... there is... a place up in Sacramento does this. Can't remember the name, but I've seen the web site for it. I'm sure there are more places like this around.I've been coming in via google so as to up the site rating.

I would expect experienced brewers to really not mess around with brew on premise type establishments.I always saw these types of places being geared towards people who wanted to play "brewmaster" but not really get into homebrewing.I'd expect experienced brewers during the week to avoid the crowds.
