How flash is that - the pallets were uplifted - transported - and delivered to the right places at the right times.
I know that this is not the cutting edge of logistics but a real milestone for a wee brewery that has largely been operating out of the back of family vehicles and the local carrier.We are aiming to significantly ramp up production this year and its starting to look as though it may work.

Brewery history made today when TWO PALLETS of beer were sent out to customers -- this was the first of our mainland distribution and was all done by fax from the brewery. Some chance of it arriving at its destinations

cloisters Success

Success up to a point. The Cloisters took two casks of IPA - loved them and sold them. Now one of the casks is missing. Not a fantstically profitable deal then.
However its a great bar, on Brougham Street in Edinburgh -- good beers and good food. Kind of like pubs used to be, without the smoke.

Lochaber Some More

We spent yesterday at Fort William at the Forteith Foodservice show where producers big and small showcase their wares and take orders from the trade for the coming season.
We had a great day -- took lots of real orders - but better still found there to be real interest and enthusiasm for our beers which will, we believe, turn into orders in the coming weeks as the tourism industry wakes from its winter slumber.

Huge Mystery On Beer Island Solved 
Wednesday, March 7, 2012, 05:04 PM
Over the years we have had many excuses for our lapses in blogging. Drunkenness, idleness, lack of interest,lack of material - they've all played a part.
Now we have the best ever. We lost the password. We thought the password was Scalasaig - the name of the capital city of our island. In fact it was not. However we spent many a dark evening coming up with various permutations of what we recalled was our user name and password. None was correct. However anonymous still have a few operatives out there to get into our little site. So here we go again.
