The middle, broken
The most visited page on your site changes every week, and it is a photo of a whiteboard.
Ask any brewery what people look at before they drive over, and it is the tap list. Ask what the tap list currently is on the website, and it is a JPEG from March, a link to an Instagram post, or a PDF. Meanwhile the small-batch that sold out on Saturday is still listed, and the one that just went on is not.
The tap list is the highest-traffic content you have and the hardest thing on the site to update
Cans sell out in an afternoon and the shop has no way to say so
Taproom hours change for events, public holidays and private hires, and Google shows the old ones
A beer club or subscription is pure recurring revenue and almost nobody has one running properly
Untappd, the POS and the website all disagree about what is pouring
A brewery site has one job before anything else: tell someone what is on tap right now, on their phone, in the car park.

Why FindDevs for this
Built by Australians who know your sector.
Built for a phone in a car park.
Most brewery traffic is someone deciding right now whether to come. The build is judged on how fast the tap list loads on 4G, not on how it looks on a designer's monitor.
Staff update it, not a developer.
If updating the tap list takes more than about fifteen seconds on a phone behind the bar, it will not happen, and the site goes stale by Thursday. That constraint drives the whole design.
Alcohol ecommerce done properly.
Age verification, per-state freight, glass packaging weights and delivery restrictions. Our network has shipped this before rather than discovering it at launch.
Three quotes, and you own it.
Fixed quotes from Australian developers, and the code, the accounts and the content are yours at handover.
Tech we know
The stack our matched Brewing developers actually use.
Send us a brief and we'll match you with developers experienced in your specific stack, not generic full-stack tourists.

What good looks like
Your website is the first impression.
In this industry the site is judged as a piece of design in its own right. These are the shapes a good one takes.
The page everyone actually opens
What is pouring right now, with just-tapped and sold-out states, editable from a phone behind the bar in about ten seconds.
Built for a phone in the car park
Most brewery traffic is someone deciding whether to come. The build is judged on how fast this loads on mobile data.
Releases that do not oversell
Real stock control for drop days, mixed cartons, and freight priced by weight so interstate orders stop losing money.
Illustrative designs, not client work. Your build uses your own photography, brand and content.
Real briefs we've matched
Three illustrative examples.
Names lightly anonymised. Outcomes from real engagements through the FindDevs network.
Melbourne, Vic
An inner-north taproom
Live tap list + screens
One update from a phone now drives the website, the bar screen and the Google listing. The whiteboard photo is gone.
Hunter Valley, NSW
A regional brewery
Online cans
Release drops stopped overselling. Freight by weight replaced a flat rate that lost money on every interstate carton.
Brisbane, Qld
A two-site brewery
Beer club
Quarterly cartons with skip and swap, and member pricing that works at both taprooms.
"The whole brief was one sentence: make it so I can change the tap list from behind the bar without thinking about it. Three quotes came back, all Australian, and the one we picked understood that was the actual product."
Often yes, and it is worth asking for. If you already keep Untappd current, the site can read from it so there is one place to update. If your POS holds the truth, we can pull from there instead. The fallback, and honestly the one most breweries end up preferring, is a phone-friendly editor that takes about ten seconds per keg change.
Real stock control rather than an honour system. Inventory decrements at checkout, sold-out variants grey out instead of disappearing, and for genuine drops you can add a queue so a hundred people hitting refresh at 10am does not oversell you by forty cartons.
If you can reliably put together a carton people want every month or quarter, it is the best revenue in the business: predictable, high margin, and it goes straight to the people who already like you. If your production is too irregular to commit, do not build it yet. We would rather tell you that than sell you the bigger project.
Age verification at checkout, licence details displayed, and freight rules that account for weight, breakage and per-state restrictions. Glass is heavy and a flat shipping rate quietly loses money on long-haul orders, so the build prices freight properly.
A taproom site with a live tap list is $5,000 to $12,000. Add online cans and it is $7,000 to $16,000. A full subscription club runs $9,000 to $20,000. Start with the tap list if the budget is tight, because it is the page everyone actually opens.
