Brewbound Data Club: NBWA Chief Economist Lester Jones Plays Life Coach to the Beer Industry

Fresh from a second quarter Fintech industry update, National Beer Wholesalers Association chief economist Lester Jones joins Data Club to discuss the year in beer so far.

In this 40-plus minute conversation, Jones dishes on what we know coming out of the July 4 holiday weekend, the continued but slowing growth of the hard seltzer segment, the non-stop innovation train, and much more.

Jones also plays “life coach” to the beer industry.

“If I was a life coach and the beer industry was my client, I would be sitting down, looking at them and saying you need some life balance here, guys,” he said.
