Up to now this year I have had

1 email complaining my ginger beer was not gingery enough and the customer was disapointed
1 email complaining that there was evidence that I had used another brewery's cask to package and sell my ale.
Today I received an email from a largish north west brewery telling me that I was outstanding payment by several months in relation to over 100KG of yeast slurry.

Cheeky buggers, I never sold any booze yet, I only use king kegs and Youngs, and certainly don't buy ingredients on credit.

a quick 'foxtrot oscar' email I hope was sent?
 
Yes

The ginger beer one was the best, as I described my own fiery ginger beer and included the abv :shock:

& got a very pleasant reply asking me to contact them if i ever went commercial as it sounded just up their street.

It just surprises me that these people click on my site and send me complaints, demands in regard to a commercial brewer who I have no connection with, without reading the content on my site, (which is a bit thin to be honest have been lazy recently) It should be obvious from reading the home page I home brew.

There are too many people who get great glee from upsetting others (and worse).

Upset I am not, too thick skinned for that, it takes a hell of a lot to upset me, If if anyone ever does they do know about it I make sure of it. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I am more surprised that people don't read simple information before deciding to hastle me is more to the point.

Thanks Critch, I knew that I keep receiving demands for unpaid accounts for them and complaints about their products ;), d ye ken.

& I will put penny to a pinch of sh*t I have owned the domain name I use longer than they have been in business.

I did get a nice apology from thwaites today though & they added to contact them if I ever wanted to but any yeast slurry.

that's a bit cheeky, you would have thought they would have offered you some free out of courtesy for the inconvenience.

Been on their website are they brewers or photographers?

I make picture frames for photographers and I am always looking for new leads, however with credit rating that poor I don't think I will bother :rofl: :rofl:
