Posted February 7, 20169 yr This is my third free build of the month, so approvals and critiques are most welcome. Samuel Amwell’s family have been brewers for generations, but Samuel is the first of his family to leave the mainland and move to the islands. In Weelond on the island of An Holli, Samuel has opened the Weelond Brewing Company. The tropical setting is perfect for growing the sugarcane necessary for distilling rum, and the ingredients for his family’s ale are also plentiful. Samuel works diligently to make sure his rum and ale are the best in the islands, and Eslandolan sailors near and far are quickly becoming familiar with WBC beverages.
February 7, 20169 yr Great MOC, I like this very much. Pity, I cannot approve - I hope the others will do so.
February 7, 20169 yr Yes! This is my cup of tea (with rum). Dark red is always nice. You make the dark and light greys work together. Vats, kettle and fireplace is prima. You obviosly now the process ;) The only minor thing you perhaps could have changed is having the finished barrels lie down, and either have a tap in them or add a few bottles. Deserves approvals.
February 7, 20169 yr And an approval from me too! Color choice of the exterior is superb and the interior is top quality! Especially the... (pot?)! Now make some arrows with the names of each machinery/part used in making brew so that we too can learn!
February 7, 20169 yr Yes the first brewery in Eslandola ! Good use of dark red bricks ! Perhaps a bit too 19e century. The inside is great ! Good job ! Too bad I cannot approve it deserves it !
February 7, 20169 yr Aye, brewing some decent beer is always a move the German in me appreciates tremendously! I also like your work with the dark red bricks, I think it came out rather great. BTW, do you keep all these nice building together so that in the end you have an entire city?
February 7, 20169 yr A very nice brewery indeed. I am not too familiar with the distilling and brewing processes, but it looks good to me. The exterior is also well done, especially the area around the chimney. Approved .
February 7, 20169 yr Author Thanks to everyone for all the comments. The only minor thing you perhaps could have changed is having the finished barrels lie down, and either have a tap in them. Yep, you're right. Not sure why I have the barrels standing up. Now make some arrows with the names of each machinery/part used in making brew so that we too can learn! I wish I could! I worked from a couple of illustrations and just threw a bunch of parts together, but I really don't have a grasp of exactly what each part is. BTW, do you keep all these nice building together so that in the end you have an entire city? I'm trying to, but a couple of my buildings are missing roofs or floorboards they had a couple of weeks ago. And if I do many more, I'm either going to have to start spending a lot more on bricklink or tearing some of these down.
February 7, 20169 yr We are seeing such a great amount of these specialised craftsmen buildings. Both interior and exterior is great, and I like how he is stirring in the brew with an oar. Well done and definitely approved!
February 7, 20169 yr The building style is perfect to my eye and the interior is wonderful, it just needs a dock (so the pirates can visit!).
February 8, 20169 yr Lovely brewery! I like the building style and colors (dark red especially) and the open-back design is really good. The oven and chimney are nice, and the interior details are pretty good as well. It's another fine addition to the growing list of operations. I approve.
February 8, 20169 yr An excellent build both interior and exterior. The dark red looks great and I like the way you have blended the light bley highlights on the exterior. A definite approval from me!!
February 9, 20169 yr Another great building Capt. Wolf, excellent choice of colors, the roof's shape and chimney are very nice details on the exterior, and the interior is great as well! Definitely approved from me!
February 19, 20169 yr Excellent exterior, I like the dark red+lbg combination and the level of texturing on the walls Nice interior details as well!
February 19, 20169 yr Great build, looks like he's making a fantastic brew and everything is clean and spotless as it needs to be... He might be a little ambitious to be distilling rum with that equipment though ;-) (but since I've never attempted distillation myself, maybe I am wrong). Approved

Approved Nah, seems legit (not exactly legit where I come from). What you need is mostly there. Vats to dissolve the sugars, fermentation and destillation. No filtration though, so it would be closer to cachaca than rum tastewise. Muddle with lime and sugar, and add crushed ice, and you have something quite drinkable.
