Diane Egner on LinkedIn: Ybor's BarrieHaus Beer Co: the small brewery with a big reputation (2024)

"Maybe I don’t need to convince you that beer media is valuable; after all, you’re reading a beer website right now. But it’s worth taking a moment to appreciate how a strong and varied beer media benefits the industry..."Those hangers-on to the beer industry who publish and broadcast and post about beer and everything to do with it? Well, they make the beer industry stronger and more creative than it could ever be without them. Brewers make better beer. More people buy beer. And when we see each other’s humanity, I like to think we all treat each other a little better as a result, too."Plus, the people who won Best Media trophy at the AIBAs for the past 10 years share some cool insights into the beer scene - now, over the past ten years or so, and looking forward.Who'd have thunk that people who immerse themselves in the beer world and think and write and talk about beer would have good things to say?

Insightful article from Beth Demmon on looking back at 2023 and forward to next year for SD beer, including this quote from Chad Heath:"Providing breweries bring their A-game to the table in 2024, I feel it will be a good year. You can’t be a hobbyist and be successful in craft beer anymore. You have to run it like a thriving business where you invest the time and effort to make your brand well-represented.” I couldn't agree more with the sentiment that, in the maturing craft beer industry and especially the ultra-competitive markets, it is crucial to have a strong business mindset to be successful. And absolutely critical to take advantage of new technology and opportunities to make it happen.Cheers to #SDbeer in 2024!

Over the past 12 months, a perfect storm has been brewing over our heads.I am sure you are aware that numerous independent breweries have either, close their doors, entered voluntary administration (VA) or gone into liquidation.The main reasons our Industry is hit so hard relates to: ·Unjustly high beer taxes (excise) that increase twice a year.·Massive increases in input cost (aluminium, packaging, grain, hops, yeast, gas, electricity, and logistics).·A change in consumer behaviour of drinking less or differently and/or turning to cheap beer options.·Difficulties to recover from post-Covid cost effects and losses AND·Bullish behaviour by the big guns, through tap contracts and kickbacks to venues.While we talk about these challenges, we don't complain or dodge responsibility, rather, we are trying to steer our business in a direction of strength and out of the path of the storm. We have turned our focus to hyper local, food, music and events and working collaboratively with other independent businesses.We believe that with the help of our friends, loyal customers and a few smart decisions, we can ‘Ride out the Storm’.And to help us do so, we have developed an exclusive membership.The membership allows us to raise some cash, and this will off course help and in return, we reward those that take it up with real benefits.There are 3 levels of membership and there are some great freebies, with the value of the rewards being 2 – 3 times that of the membership cost, including: FREE welcome pack that includes a T-shirt, stubby holder, Ambassador pin, beer and more,FREE monthly/weekly pints of beer at the brewshed (level dependent)FREE carton (s) of beer to take homeDiscount on Merchandise, BeersFREE tickets for Pony eventsDiscounts on on-line purchasesFREE pints on your birthday and food for you and your friendsThe process is quite easy, just jump on-line, sign up and we do the rest. If you like what we do, you can support us and in addition to getting all these freebies, your KRAMA account has filled up as well. :) Thanking you from the bottom of our hearts, Frank and Corinna and the entire Pony team.

On this day in 1935, the first canned beer was sold. 🍺 Introduced by the Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company and the American Can Company, the cans were made of tin-plated steel and featured a special enamel lining to prevent any interaction between the beer and the metal, preserving the quality of the beverage. Over 3,000 beer cans—each with their own unique story—are set to go up for auction. Learn more about the rare cans! ➡ https://lnkd.in/gTFGmpda-------If you like this post and want to learn more about collectibles, the hobby and the industry, please:👍 LIKE✍ COMMENT♻️ REPOST#collectibles #history #americana #beerlovers | Molson Coors Beverage Company
