    If you brew GOOD beer you won’t need any consulting. You can’t compete with lousy brews and consulting wont help that. The few good breweries are laughing at this article’s headline; the many mediocre and some nasty breweries are now reaching for their phones preparing to spend more money in the wrong place.

      Because naturally, if you brew good beer, you are good at business.
