From Beer and Beyond: Diversifying Beverage Offerings from the Brewhouse

It pays to offer more options. If you are a brewery looking to add more beverages to your taproom, listen in as our experts discuss diversifying beverage portfolios in the craft beer scene. Looking to sell cold-brew in the morning? Or hoping to add a distilling branch to your cellar? Or perhaps you just want to provide gluten-free options to your menu such as cider and seltzer? Our panel of brewers and equipment professionals is here to answer your questions and help get the most from your brewing equipment.

Our panel includes:

- Dahlonega Brewery and Etowah Meadery: Officially formed in July 2016. It is a Veteran owned company geared towards involving the Dahlonega community in as many ways as possible, as well as supporting several great charities, such as multiple Veteran centric organizations and Georgia House Rabbit Society. Located in Dahlonega, the very Heart of Georgia’s Wine Country and Wine Tasting Capital of Georgia, Etowah Meadery gives “wine” a unique buzz! In fact, Etowah's Meads are wines made with only the finest honeys, fruits, and spices!
