The Colonsay music festival - enough to make anyone smile]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry121005-163133 http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120927-165552 However the work is suffering. One of our customers has been billed for only half their delivery - another has not been billed at all for several months.
So no booze from now on - well perhaps not any on invoices day to start with.
To our customers - Sorry.]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120923-125605 In the meantime look at

says 80/ is a 10 out of 10. :-)]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120919-125352 There was quite a laid back feel to the first part of the festival we thought - then Manran turned up on a rib on Saturday night and caused a storm that will echo round the island for weeks to come. They really are superb.]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120906-104953 We've been sampling -- and it is bloody marvellous. We can't wait for the festival fun to start and the, hopefully, good feedback from the music loving beer drinkers. We just need the second hand pull to arrive....we fear one will not be enough.]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120830-144223 Surprising as it is, being the producer of some of the most expensive beer in Britain (Geography dear boy Geography), we are on course to have record sales of beer this year in both our on sales and off sales outlets. We had beer at the Olympics - sadly not competing - and a list of outlets from wholesalers that could never have been achieved from here.
The music festival's round the corner - then winter - so no excuse not to get the blog fired up again and give a little insight into our challenging but hugely rewarding (not cash sadly) business.

Imagine if Tennants forgot to lock up at Wellpark - I bet there would not be much left by the morning.
Colonsay looting - close the door carefully after you and leave the right money. Looks to us like a good way of cutting the wage bill.]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120323-180037 Royal Miles Whiskies, which also owns the expanding Drinkmonger Chain, got a delivery from us yesterday and they were saying the beer is shifting in all their outlets -- but the IPA is going down particularly well in London - perhaps we should sponsor the Olympics.]]> http://www.colonsaybrewery.co.uk/blog/index.php?entry=entry120320-175728 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.]]>
