Is it possible to get a brewing company to make a beer for me and bottle it with my brand and bottles?!


Question: I have an idea for how to market a beer, it doesn't matter if it's a great tasting beer really. all I need is for them to bottle the beer in my bottles and put my branding on it, I'll take care of the rest.
If you know of a company in Orange Count/ LA that can do this please let me know.

Thanks

You would need to make lots of barrels for them to do a unique beer for you.

If you get a micro brewery to bottle up their own beer for you it would be best to buy unlabelled product - the brewery would then supply bottles etc and have full control over the quality of its product from a legal point of view - you are not (repeat NOT) qualified to be part of the food supply chain!) (if you supply bottles they will need sterilisation at plant and you will pay £££ for this). Label and pack the bottles yourself - contact a local packaging company to see if they have old dies for unusual label shapes and carton designs - you wouldn't need to pay the set up cutter cost then, which would save you ££ if you pay acsh up front.
Don't forget you'll need some kind of licence to sell your own branded beer..

You know how much money that cost to do... no way...

If you go to a micro brewery in your town with your bottles that have your label on them, I'm sure they will fill them with their beer for you. Look in the phone book for a micro brewery in your area. I'm sure there are many to choose from. hope this helps, chef Paul

Sure.

For instance, Heineken brews Celis White under contract for Pierre Celis.

Carling is brewed in the states by Miller under contract with Pabst.

Pittsburgh Brewing Co. brews the largest portion (by volume) of Sam Adams beers

Why don't you try one of those home brewing kits, it may not be the same but it is a good start.

I have no Idea
BUT
maybe sam knows

No. It would cost a lot, involve contracts and lawyers and other hassles. You would have to come up with your own recipe and get permission to sell it. And be able to produce it on your own or pay someone a bunch to do it for you.
