Team Building Brewing

Lervig's first team building experiment was completed yesterday when a group of Geophysicists from a local Oil drilling company bottled their own beer. The project began when the Lead Geophysicist came to the brewery to purchase some beer for himself. A week or so later he was back for more beer and to ask about the possiblity to produce some beer for his team. We had a meeting and a few beers later decided how to go about it.

My co worker and myself met his whole team at the Cardinal Pub in town and had arranged a beer tasting of 12 beers which cover a broad range of what beer is and what beer can be from Pilsner to a Smoked Impierial Stout. We had a fun filled eveing but before it was over the team had a better understanding for what beer is and how it is made. We also decided what sort of beer they desired to produce with our 800Liter system....

Two weeks later the team visited the brewery, with my help they were instructed on milling the malts, and mashing in the malt to start the brew, Many persons toured the rest of the brewery while enjoying our beers and some grilled food thanks to our friend Magne. After about 6 hours their beer was in the fermenter....

They ended up with over 1700 bottles of beer with their own label and fitting name 'Explore Me' as they are normaly an oil field exploring team and now they can add beer exploring to their list of discoveries
