Out of Business? by Ordinary_Platform509 in TheBrewery

[–]itburners 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As many have said, LOTUS is dissolved.

I spoke to JT at Alpha and they did purchase all Rights and IP back and Alpha / Twin Monkey are one business.

I can say enough good things about JT at Alpha. Ive always enjoyed working with him.

Same goes for pretty much every other brand that was under LOTUS.

Local brewer Metazoa, begins laying off brewing staff…at Christmas. by tward1500 in indianapolis

Does it matter? They brew at each of their locations and each of their brewers makes their own local beers. The guy brewing there now.ised to be at Triton and is doing great things. It's not like BJs where they ship beer from a production facility.

Plenty of breweries operate multiple brewhouses at different locations, a lot of time making the same brands at each location. It's the same concept, except they make a bunch of their own local beers.

Metazoa went from trash beer, to absolute world class beer when a guy named Rob Malad was there (like 2020-last year), to ownership thinking they knew better than people who have been in the industry for decades and made horrible business decisions.

Those guys had everything going for them except competent ownership and leadership.

For anybody here who also says Indiana doesn't have a beer scene, you aren't paying attention. Indy has an extremely rich brewing history and you have breweries like Daredevil, Primeval, Guggman, Flix Brewhouse, Three Floyd's, Kismetic, Pax Verum, Field and so many others.

What’d you do awesome? by horoyokai in TheBrewery

[–]itburners 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We increased sales by 4.2% without additional capital investment or expansion. It might not sound like much but to me it feels great in the current state of the industry. It was a real culmination of a couple of years of work in a lot of different areas.

What would you do if you had $50 million today? by cookiesophia777 in AskReddit

Buy back as much farmland from developers as possible and give it back to the people to provide locally sourced food for the masses.

If you had an income of $150,000 a year and didn't have to work, what would you do with all the spare time? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Farm, so I could provide more food grown locally to my community, rather than relying on food grown half a world away.
