Master Brewer Michael Ferguson, now with Aalberts Dispense Technologies, has been in the craft beer business for 30 years and he’s seen it all. In this episode of Brew Strong, live from HomebrewCon 2019, Michael speaks with John Palmer and Justin Crossley about the ins and outs of going pro. Tune in to learn all the reasons you shouldn’t, all the reasons you should, and, most of all, what you need to do to be successful with such a crazy idea. With more than 7,000 breweries in the United States and as many as 3,000 in planning, are we reaching a saturation point? In some places we probably have, which means location and concept should be major deciding factors. Whether you imagine a brewpub, nano, micro, or packaging brewery, you’ll need to carefully consider many factors if your brewery is to remain open and successfully grow.
