Guarding our suitcase full of #craftbeer #cbc13 #homewardbound (at LIRR)

We’re in!

It’s official! Yesterday we signed the lease and now Moustache has a home in Riverhead! More details to follow!

So they tell us that the lease will be ready for us on Wednesday! However, even if it is ready on Wednesday for us we won’t be able to sign it until our lawyer give it the A-OK! Which will take a few days more. So keep your moustaches crossed that we get in next week! Everything is happening all at once right now!

We’re finishing up all the fun questions on this form and this form for the federal and state government. Don’t be mislead by the shortness of the Federal form. No, no. It only looks sweet and innocent, but there’s all sorts of sneak attacks it’s got for us. Diagrams, photos, attachments, baking it a pie. Wait. No pie. But there was a not so exciting trip to the Social Security Administration. They need to know EVERY place we’ve worked for the past 10 years. Matt was easy, me, not so much. I had to pony up and get a list from Social Security. I’ve had about 35 jobs, no joke. And the Feds want to know about all of them.

Then at the same time, I’m working on our building permit applications with the town so we can start construction straightaway. It will take about 6 weeks for that to go through. I spoke with our architect yesterday (who LOVES craft beer BTW!) so she can get plans together for our permit.

So very much to do! It’s a full time job already and we’re not even open yet! (Can I quit my boring job yet?)

Things I am working on simultaneously:

  • Lease
  • Insurance
  • Bonding
  • Federal and state applications
  • Updating the business plan
  • Taxes
  • Investors

Annnnnnnd Breathe!

Welcome 2013!

Welcome 2013!

Happy New Year everyone! We want to thank you for all your support in this past year!! We couldn’t have done it without you.

2013 is going to be a great year for Moustache Brewing Co. Things are underway on our new location. We should be sealing the deal and signing our lease in the next week or so. 

Once the lease is signed we will finish up our applications to the TTB and SLA and dash them off straightaway! Then we play the waiting game.

While we are waiting we will be working on renovating our space and readying it for production. As well as finishing things up with the SEC for investors.

We have a lot to do but we are so excited to move forward!
Stay tuned.

Cheers,


Lauri & Matthew

Our lease proposal was accepted by the landlord! The lease will be drawn up next week. Once our lawyer gives us the A-OK we’ll be signed sealed and delivered! What a great way for us to start 2013! Huzzah!

Riverhead

It’s on. We’re going for the space we looked at in Riverhead two weeks ago. It’s not our dream space but we can surely make it work. 

Everything is being worked out with the lease as we speak, but we’re hoping to be in for the new year!
