With over 6,500 breweries in the United States, it can be difficult to differentiate yours from the rest. At Brewbound Live we will talk to a trio of fast-growing independent breweries, Three Weavers, Fort Point and Melvin, about how they are creating points of differentiation in a crowded marketplace.
We will hear from Brooklyn Brewery who will talk about how an established, mid-sized craft brewery is staying competitive at their core while finding new growth opportunities abroad. Finally, our big brewer panel explores the craft strategies of three of the industry’s largest players: Anheuser-Busch, MillerCoors and Constellation Brands. Keith Villa Founder, CERIA Beverages Keith Villa is a third generation Coloradan, whose higher education began with an undergraduate degree in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology from the University of Colorado, Boulder. His first job out of school in 1986 was with Coors Brewing Company, conducting molecular biology research on yeast.
In 1988, Keith and his wife, Jodi, traveled to Belgium where Keith earned a Ph.D. In brewing science and fermentation biochemistry from the University of Brussels. Keith is credited with creating Blue Moon Brewing Company in 1995 as an operating unit of Coors, which later became MillerCoors. Blue Moon’s Belgian White, garnished by a Valencia orange slice, grew to become the number 1 craft beer in the U.S. During this time, and Keith became a well-known brewmaster in the industry, appearing in Blue Moon TV commercials. Now retired from MillerCoors after 32 years, Keith and Jodi are focusing on the next stage in their careers – the creation of non-alcoholic brews infused with THC that offer consumers a socially acceptable and responsible way to enjoy cannabis. These new products will be offered by their CERIA Beverages Company and sold first in Colorado.
