Episode Thirteen - Owning Multiple Small Breweries vs One Brewery

The Craft Lyfe - Marketing and Branding for the Craft Beer Industry

The craft beer industry is an industry unlike any other. Brewers collaborate on recipes, trade ingredients, and encourage customers to visit neighboring breweries. While it may seem like some markets are oversaturated with craft breweries, it’s this shared sense of community and camaraderie that allows these businesses to thrive. With that in mind, are there any benefits to starting up multiple breweries, (different locations - with different ideologies, design, theme, and most importantly, different beer styles) versus one brewery? The person best equipped to answer this question, is none other than John Falco! If you don’t know who John Falco is, let me tell you.
