You are with friends at your favorite craft brewery enjoying some yummy ales when it strikes you: Why not turn your love of terrific beer into a profession and begin your own brewery?

If you are serious -- and not just buzzed -- know that it requires a whole lot of planning, patience and money to make this dream a reality. Starting a small business is already hard, and breweries are exceptionally capital-intensive companies that come with extra legal and permitting requirements.



But with sober preparation, creative financing and tenacity, you can make your own neighborhood watering hole. Here is some tips to get you started:

1, How much does brewery equipment price?

Your brewery needs essential equipment: microbrewery kettles, kegs, boilers, bottling and canning lines, conveyors, cooling systems, storage tanks, fermentation tanks, filters and beer-labeling machines, tubing and piping, refrigeration equipment, cleaning equipment, waste treatment systems and tap handles.

How much you will pay for brewing gear ultimately depends on the size of your brewery and whether you purchase new or used. You can purchase brewing equipment with the smallest capacity (1 barrel, which is 31 gallons of beer, equal to 320 12-ounce beers) for $100,000 or less if you buy it used, or cover up to $1 million or more to get a brand-new, 30-barrel system (equivalent to 9,600 12-ounce beers), says Leonard Kolada, creator of Smokehouse Brewing Co. in Columbus, Ohio.

2, Location and construction

Needless to say, your own brewery also needs a house. The monthly cost of rent depends greatly on where you are and the size of this construction. And you will also probably have to do construction on the building to have it fit for the brewery.

3, Other costs and issues

The expense of flooring is often overlooked, Degong states. A excellent composite flooring that will withstand impact shock, temperature shock and acidity from beer will cost upwards of $10 per square foot, according to Degong.
