So you two wondered what would it take to start a small scale brewery.
So don't get too excited. I just started taking notes and thought I would keep those notes in a public area. Don't assume that I have everything correct, but feel free to help me if you see I didn't get it right the first time.

Steps to creating a Brewery
There are a lot of work and steps required to setup a brewery. I decided to focus on the legal and regulatory aspects as these seem to be hurdles that stop people for proceeding until they realize the steps are fairly simple.
- Set aside some money
- Understand legal aspects for federal, state and local.
- Setup an appropriate business entity to protect yourself legally
- Complete Application for New Brewery, Micro Brewery, or Brewpub with the TTB
- Complete State Application
