James Welsh left the tech world to focus on something more meaningful — beer — and his efforts have been met with success. The Garage Beer Founder and CEO shared Borrell’s enthusiasm regarding the successful campaign:
“We’re psyched that so many fans of our beer have jumped onboard and we’ve just got the keys to the new plant, which is going to be big & bold but retain the friendly edge that makes our brewery tick. While we’re waiting for the new kit to arrive we’re going to fill one section with oak wine barrels and step up our ageing program – until now we simply haven’t had the space. We’ve genuinely become good mates with Crowdcube, they’ve basically acted as our finance team and have flipped a load of our customers into investors, enabling us to avoid dealing with banksters.”
