  • Offsite barrel storage & packaging advice?

    Haw River Farmhouse Ales is a brewery-in-planning in central NC (opening in "a couple months"… ha ha) that’s been lucky enough to recently score a great lease on a very large, rather inexpensive warehouse space just a couple miles north of our main production facility in Saxapahaw, that will allow us the opportunity to start our sour/barrel program from opening day (our main facility is a great retail-driven 3000sqft in town, but for aging beer and introducing bugs, it’s not big enough) and the flexibility to package in a space where we have a bit more room.

    Would love to get the chance to find out from folks who have worked with a similar situation, from proper TTB licensing, to logistics, to optimizing the process and making sure we’re doing everything above board and as efficient as possible from Day One. Any chance anyone out there can help answer a few questions we have and discuss what we have planned (happy to pop back into the forum with results, once we get the chance to chat privately for a bit)? Google searches tend to turn up conflicting advice, and we haven’t found any friends in the local industry in a similar situation. Thanks!

    Did you ever get an answer to these questions? I know it's an old thread, sorry.
