There are a few vocab questions at the end of my translations. Any help appreciated.

Piss up in a Brewery invites you to the home of Sierra del Tigre to try the beer directly from the tanks and also to learn about the beer-making process. $15,000 COP gets you four 300ml glasses of the best beer in the country

The name 'Piss up in a Brewery' comes from the phrase 'He/she could not organise a piss up in a brewery'. A piss up is a drinking session. The phrase means to be very badly organised, imagine not being able to arrange a party in a factory full of beer!

El nombre 'Piss up in a Brewery' viene de la frase inglesa 'He/she could not organise a piss up in a brewery', que significa 'El/ella no podría arreglar una rumba en una cervecería'. La frase significa ser muy disorganizado/a, ¡imagínate no poder organizar una fiesta en una planta llena de cerveza!

Would you use hogar as home in the above context?

Aprender del process del hacer de la cerveza - sounds a bit clunky to me, any ideas?

$15,000 COP te compra... - does this sounds OK in Espanish?

Given that piss up means drinking session or party with the specific end of getting drunk, can anyone suggest a better phrase than rumba or fiesta?

Same offer of free beer as per my last...

I think having e-mai addresses and phone numbers in posts is inappropriate. - lorenzo9, Jan 24, 2011
Why? Some people would not want to show their 'personal details' for all on Sunday for 'security' reasons. This is not something that bothers me. Also, you have my number now so if you are ever in Bogotá and fancy some good beer... :-) - afowen, Jan 28, 2011

My suggestions:

'Piss up in a brewery' te invita al hogar de Sierra del Tigre para probar la cerveza directament de los tanques, y aprender sobre el proceso de elaboración de la cerveza. Con $15,000 COP se compran cuatro vasos de 300 ml de la cerveza de más calidad del país.

El nombre 'Piss up in a Brewery' viene de la frase inglesa 'He/she could not organise a piss up in a brewery', que significa 'No ser capaz de organizar una rumba en una cervecería'. La frase significa ser muy disorganizado. ¡Imagínate no poder organizar una fiesta en una planta llena de cerveza!

Thanks again Lazarus - afowen, Jan 24, 2011
Excellent -- A few comments: directamente.. I like rumba. Desorganizado. It's not necessary to say "llena de cerveza" just "en una planta de cerveza" would convey the meaning. - gone, Jan 24, 2011
Thanks. does 'planta llena de cerveza' sound bad though? It's the same thing is intimated in using brewery in English. I used 'full of beer' to emphasize how useless you'd have to be not to be able to sort out a party in one... - afowen, Jan 24, 2011
"300 ml de la cerveza de mayor calidad del país". "desorganizado" - Cabeza_215, Jan 24, 2011
