World's smallest brewery

From the BBC comes the news that the World's Smallest Brewery has re-opened: bq. 'Smallest' brewery reopens A mid Wales brewery which claims to be the smallest in the world has re-opened. bq. Less than 5ft square and formerly an outside toilet, Bragdy Gwynant brews ale for just one customer - the Tynllidiart Arms next door. bq. Based in Capel Bangor, near Aberystwyth, the brewery has gone back into production after a two-year break. And more: bq. "The previous owner of the pub moved out two years ago and up until two weeks ago the pub was closed and the brewery was too," said Mr Phillips, who moved in just two weeks ago. bq. "We thought it would be nice to brew our own local beer and luckily we had a brewer living a few doors down who was able to help. Cool -- the local beers are generally a lot better tasting than commercial beers. Fresher too. Posted by DaveH at August 21, 2004 1:10 PM
