Title: Seren Brewing Co. - New Nano Brewery in Wales
Post by: Padraic on April 01, 2013, 03:57:35 PM
Just a quick note to let you know that Ali Kocho who was judging at out national homebrew championships is in the process of setting up a nano-brewery and is raising some of the money using kickstarter (a crowd funding provider).

Check it out! And invest some money for a nice reward!

Is anyone interested in investing as part of the Club? Say €5 or €10 each? I think it could be an investment that pays in spades. I'm sure we will want to have a club outing at some point. ;)

2. Padraic €10
3. johnrm EUR10
4. Tube €10

I paid GBP10 so I'm already on the wall.
probaby best to remove me from this list rather than confuse things!

Also, your in EUR here, you're going to have to convert to GBP.

Good point John! If we make it to sixty ill put in the extra to make the 50£ to name one of the fermenters! (If extra is needed) so were at 30 so far! Any other takers?

If it suits ye all I can pay it and get the money from you all next time I see ye!

QuotePledge £50 or more

Your name on the wall of the brewery. A Seren Brewing Co. branded growler, bottle opener and glass for you to enjoy some of our finished product. Plus, you get the chance to name one of our fermenters.

So what will we call the fermenter?

Name on the wall "National Homebrew Club"
Fermenter, the same name? Or should we go with an Ireland in brackets?

So for the growler etc will we just draw a name from a hat?

I think we should let this run for a few more days or a week as a lot of us from the comp would like to thank him!.

@Rossa: maybe you could pm Ali, Thank him for the comp, wish him well in the venture and letting him know that apart from individual contributions there will be a club pledge.

If I'm teaching Granny to suck eggs then I apologise!!

Oh and BTW: Banks in Wales have heard of Euros!! If we send the donation as a Euro cheque he can just pay it in to his bank a/c!!

Any probs let me know as I have a Welsh Cheque book (and some money in the a/c so I could always just write out a big cheque for him. ( In exchange for a few bottles of HB from ye's all!! )

F**K it been drinking at TOG!!! Ignore stupid offer!!

But can convert € to £ at cost!
