I meant weak in flavor/appeal, not in ABV... sorry for the confusion.
There are some out there that I enjoy though... Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier is a nice summer brew. Ayinger Celebrator is pretty good as well.

Kicker would be that provider owns exclusive future brewing rights in perpetuity. if additional incarnations of the same brew were to take place, the brewer and provider would be 50/50 partners in product and profit

That is how I took it. I don't care for German beers, at least the ones I have had.

Maybe... I'd have to do more research and run the numbers.

Are you referring to a contract brewer?

Well the first part you explained is identical to a contract brewer.

That's how brash started. I believe they used Clown Shoes facility in Massachussetts to brew.
The other stuff you typed would simply be contract language.

Some pros to contract brewing
And these are some of the drawbacks
quote:
Although contract brewing has a higher cost of goods due to the overhead and profit owed to the host brewer, the bulk of the business is a variable cost with very little overhead. Rather than having the usual revenue expenses associated with owning a business—rent, lease on forklift, loans on brewing machinery, payroll for a large staff—contract brewers use their capital for additional brand building and marketing activities to yield a higher return on investment. “One of the primary reasons we chose contract brewing was to get our product line into the marketplace and establish brand identity before we committed to building our own brewery,” said Altimari. “This not only reduced our upfront costs but allowed a much faster time to market.”
And these are some of the drawbacks
quote:
“No matter what the sliding scale of commitment, unless a contract brewer has full control over the brewery and staff (co-ownership), a contract brew is only at or below the highest level of performance of the host brewery,” said Del Grande. “This includes challenges like shifting scheduling whims or sanitary mistakes of staff, but also benefits like high quality equipment I couldn’t normally afford.”

No, they are paying for use of the equipment and for supplies, not for a contract brewer to brew for them. The creator of the beer would be in charge of the brewing process for that day. I'm sure under some assistance/supervision of the brewery/incubator owner. After all, it's still their equipment.

It's the same wheelhouse. Pretty things did this. They called themselves a "tenant brewer". It's all a variation of the broader term of contract brewing.

Actually, my mistake, it's more closely associated with an alternating brewery proprietorship.

quote:
What is an “alternating brewery proprietorship”? An “alternating proprietorship” is a term we use to describe an arrangement in which two or more people take turns using the physical premises of a brewery. Generally, the proprietor of an existing brewery, the “host brewer,” agrees to rent space and equipment to a new “tenant brewer.” The tenant qualifies as a brewer under part 25 by filing the appropriate documents with TTB. The tenant produces beer, keeps appropriate brewery records, labels the beer with its own name and address, obtains the necessary COLAs, and pays tax at the appropriate rate upon removal of its beer from the brewery. The tenant brewer has title to the beer at all stages of the brewing process. Alternating brewery proprietorships allow existing breweries to use excess capacity and give new entrants to the beer business an opportunity to begin on a small scale, without investing in premises and equipment. Regulations in part 25 do not refer to this type of arrangement. However, in the mid-1980s, ATF began approving applications for alternate methods and procedures that allow two or more brewers to alternate the use of brewery premises and equipment.

Also, here's some interesting facts about craft beer in Louisiana.
LINK
NATIONAL RANKINGS
We are ranked 49th in breweries per capita.
We are ranked 24th in production, consumption, and total economic impact in the US.
We are ranked 36th economic impact per capita.
So despite being nearly dead last in # of breweries, we still sell and consume better than half the country. I would attribute a lot of this to Abita being one of the oldest and largest crafter breweries in the country.
But that does spell good things for the craft industry in this state.

I see a downvote on my last post. Do facts scare you? What reason could you possibly have for downvoting this, and pretty much every post i make?
You actually took the time to go back and downvote every post i made in this thread? What a noble warrior you are...

You "care" way too much
Fwiw, I don't pay enough attention to your inane ramblings to down vote your posts
Whoever did it just knew that it would get under your skin, and they were correct
