Brewbound’s return to in-person events kicks off Thursday, September 9, during the annual Craft Brewers Conference in Denver with a special Brew Talks meet up.
Tickets are available now for the event, which will feature a pair of beer business-focused conversations. The first — Crafting a New Legacy: Building the Traditional Beer Brands of the Future, While Supporting Your Core — will explore how three top craft breweries are accentuating their legacy traditional beer brands with new offerings.
Joining the conversation will be:
- Sam Calagione, co-founder, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery
- Steve Fechheimer, CEO, New Belgium Brewing Company
- Carrie Yunker, executive vice president, Bell’s Brewery
The panel will discuss strategies behind continuing to build their top product lines, from the iconic 60 Minute IPA, Fat Tire Amber, and Two Hearted Ale, to creating newer franchises such as Hazy-O, Voodoo Ranger and No, Yeah.
The second conversation is expected to explore marketing strategies to connect with legal drinking age Generation Z consumers. Panelists and details to come in the coming weeks.
The program will begin at 1 p.m. MT at Herman’s Hideaway (1578 South Broadway, Denver, Colorado, 80210).
