Demo thoughts
I like these kinds of games and have some feedback. The interface and some missing tutorials get in the way of full enjoyment. It told me to buy a maintenance cabinet and I didn't have the funds or any way to get the funds. I found I could take a loan on my own. The beer recipe design screen is also an overload of information with much of it not explained. The icons above the vertical sliders were where I went to mouse over to find out what each was without knowing I had to look to the other set of icons in the top left. The icon for a beer being complete and ready to store or sell is unintuitive and very tiny on screen.

Hey gamefan42! Super thankful for your feedback and it will be taken into consideration. Especially when it comes to the available funds, you were not the only one struggling with it, so I think you're onto something. Also, the recipe design feeling "too much" is not something we heard often, but I can definitely see where you're coming from; better tool tips should alleviate that and we will be working on these.

Stay tuned, and once again, thank you for your feedback!

I wanted to add my feedback to a related topic, since I only have one small note for now (apart from: I enjoyed the interesting, gentle gameplay and charming visual style - best of luck in development!).
I feel like I stumbled across the ability to let the brewers drink from the stored ales by accident, even during the tutorial for that mechanic. Once I realised the button with the three barrels was a toggle, it made sense, and could see the volume going down and satisfaction going up, but wasn't able to find UI confirmation of what it was (and that doesn't seem like it was an intentional thing to miss off for immersive investigation).
