Response was overwhelming. The Presidential Pack captured international attention, selling out - at a retail price of $3,490 - in just days and attracting a waitlist of more than 450 names. Now, just in time for Canada Day, the completed packs are making their way to lucky purchasers across the country. "The single biggest question we heard when we launched the Presidential Pack was: is this for real?" says Karen Grigg, Director of Marketing at Moosehead Breweries.

Thoughts On My First Time Attending CBC...Finally

This is a long overdue piece, but time and life always bring surprises, delays, and all kinds of unexpected curveballs. This being said, I am finally getting time to get caught up and share some of the great happenings over the last few months and the first half of the year.

This piece is just that, and a big thanks to the Brewers Association for the recent Craft Brewers Conference that took place in Indianapolis from April 28-May 1st this year. Attending the event as a media presence was a great opportunity to get behind the scenes with the many companies that are bringing success to the craft brewing industry. From the breweries to the suppliers and marketers, and all that make it happen…it was a worthwhile experience.

I had the honor to meet and talk with some legendary folks from the beer world, and here, just like many of the events that I have been a part of, the beer industry is one of the most welcoming and community-building ones that I have ever seen. It is something to see. Now it’s not perfect, which it knows, but it is doing things looking to strive for better, showing the ability to self-reflect. This is a great thing because it shows the awareness of opportunities that are still untapped, and working toward them will bring even more success. This was something of one of the major takeaways for me.


From the time of the reception throughout the final night of the World Beer Cup awards, the knowledge that was shared was invaluable for many who came and left stronger with new associations and contacts that could help build success. And in some cases, it was being able to communicate with others and know, “okay, it’s not just me.” What an opportunity for all.


In attending the various sessions and presentations, the conference covered such a broad and good range of topics that I would say anyone in or around the beer industry should consider attending if they can. And of course, then there was the beer. The various beers from around the country on hand were outstanding. And not just learning about the beer was great, but talking with those behind the malts and hops as well, and their contributions were enlightening. And not to mention, the beer technology companies and what they are doing and how it is also enhancing the beer world was fascinating in being able to discuss.


Next year, the Craft Brewers Conference will take place in Philadelphia in 2026, and although this was my first time attending, if it is anything like it was for Indianapolis, then I say make your plans to attend this excellent opportunity! The conversations, connections, and contacts you have and make will alone make it well worth it.


Cheers!
