I want it all, I want it now.

Busy week this week, what with Christmas comming faster than a very fast thing, we have a lot of things on our plate.

Monday has turned into accounts day, problem day and fustration day, as a problem has occured with the labels for bottled Ironworks Ale, the supplier has wound them on the wrong way so that everything is in the wrong place for the label machine......

Tommorow is looking good, but I have to make sure that everyone has their Christmas orders in, so if you want some brilliant Craft Beer for Christmas, you'd better get hold of us soon as it's going fast.

The madness begins Wednesday as I collect this week's order of Ironworks Ale and deliver it to the pubs in East London that have it on draft. It's not a huge quantity, but then we are still waiting for the people at Wetherspoons HQ to cross the T's and dot the I's on the paperwork that will see it in The Millers Well and Barking Dog as well as some other Wetherspoons pubs in East London and Essex. We expect a big increase in sales once that deal is finalised.

After that we are meeting the good people from Brewdog at their new bar in Camden Town to have a look at what they have done there. Looking forward to trying some more of their beers there.

Then it's back to the South West via our friends at Ramsbury Brewery, and I hope to have time to drop in on Devilfish and Plain Ales as well. Once back in the office it's back to the search for a good quality lager producer that can provide a short run to test market an Ironworks Lager for January.

Phew.
