Can NetSuite Handle Brewery Production? NetSuite + Beer30 Explained
A live NetSuite demo of dashboards, lot-tracked items and drill-down reporting, then Beer30 running brew day, batch costing and tank reports with every production step posting back to NetSuite.
About this episode
Asked in the Q&A why a brewery would run production outside NetSuite, Luxent's Scott Nelson is direct: NetSuite only goes so far into a brewery's production cycle.
So this session pairs it with Beer30 by The 5th Ingredient, a production platform built for brewers, and shows the two running as one system. Scott starts on the NetSuite side with role-based dashboards for an accountant and a production manager, a hazy IPA item record that holds its bill of materials, rolling average cost, and on-hand stock by location, bin, and lot, and an income statement that drills from one number down to the transactions behind it and pivots across subsidiaries, departments, and classes.
Pulkit K. Agrawal then demos Beer30 itself: recipes with day- and gravity-based cellar actions, a brew day where mash-in pulls live NetSuite lot numbers, a batch history with cost per barrel, quality checkpoints, yeast genealogy, tank utilization, and a distribution hub fed by NetSuite sales orders, plus a quick look at barrel aging and spirits. Aaron Gore explains what the two-way sync carries and why unlimited Beer30 users keep floor staff off NetSuite licenses, and the Q&A settles how it lands in the books. Production steps in Beer30 post to NetSuite as assembly builds and work orders, so inventory and COGS stay current in the ERP.
