Home brewing?
Anyone interested in brewing their own beer on an industrial scale has until today to make an offer on the assets of Bermuda Brewing Company Ltd.
May 17 is the deadline set by liquidator of the brew house's assets, Bruce Sharpe of Sharpe Financial Services Ltd.
Mr. Sharpe however, could not be contacted yesterday to explain what assets were for sale.
The Bermuda Brewing Company Ltd. was named as one of 2001's top ten local companies in the spring edition of Bermudian Business magazine, but the plug was pulled on production following the filing of a writ in the supreme court on March 5.
The company produced two local beers, Island Ale and Tempest Lager, and tours of the facility were also offered to locals and visitors.
Bermuda Brewing Company bought the failed Bermuda Triangle Brewery in 2000 and spent four months redesigning and updating the facilities to their specifications, which included installing air conditioning, and piping for a reverse osmosis water supply.
Bermuda Triangle Brewing Ltd., the Island's first brewery, started production in late 1994, and sold Wilde Hogge, Spinnaker, Full Moon Pale Ale and Hammerhead Stout during five years in business.
