In its third year of operations, Ranger Creek Brewing and Distilling was in September 2013 and so far had remained a success story. Bourbons and its beers had won several tasting awards and its financials were fulfilling expectations, but the management team was beginning to feel intense growing pains. There were some unanswered questions the owners needed to tackle before they could even focus on increase plans. Thinking about the current production records, what was the maximum attainable capacity of the plant?
Would brewing capacity need to be enlarged and, if so, what equipment should be bought? Should the focus be put on automating the brewing or filling process? Finally, what were the operational effects of the recently passed beer laws in Texas? The owners had to choose an operational scenario for the 2014-2019 capital and manpower budget that will address these concerns.
