Small brewery lacks a real-time inventory tracking system and relies on a yearly inventory update, making it difficult to manage spoiled or expired beer write-offs throughout the year.

Current accounting software or spreadsheets do not provide a simple way to track beer inventory with spoilage events, forcing an annual bulk adjustment that hides losses and complicates cost tracking.
